I’m having a problem with Blogger not displaying all of the comments in my past posts.
I usually don’t reply to comments immediately since I’m short on time on a daily basis – I’ll reply to them in bulk when I have some spare time, usually about once a week (or every 2 weeks…yup I got me a goshdarngood system I tellsya!) – and now as I’m going back through my blog I’m seeing TONS of comments missing. (I haven’t deleted them, honest I haven’t! *cries* *random blubbering*)
So if you’ve left a comment lately, and I haven’t replied or you don’t see your comment on the blog – well, I hope Blogger’s working on it, cuz I ain’t done a thing! I do try and visit everyone’s blog who leaves me a comment (if you’ve left your blog addy in the comment) – so me not stopping by and thanking you for your input is either I just haven’t gotten to your comment yet…or it has mysteriously disappeared. (This has only been happening today [Friday], so the problem may be fixed by the time this posts.)
Anyway.

…and you can remove the outer layer at the 3 vertical buttons.
I won these fabulous shredded jeans in an Insight x Ladylike Fatlace giveaway last month!!
I was super-stoked. Actually, I won a pair of colored beanpole jeans, and the rep emailed me letting me know they were out of stock, would I like the shredded ones? I said HELL YES! and we had a deal.
‘Cept…she asked my size and I stupidly said 26. I looked all over the site for a size chart and couldn’t find it. I’m a 26 in 7 For All Mankind’s and a 27 in Forever21 stretch skinnies. I figured I should go smaller cuz skinny jeans stretch out as you wear them.
‘Cept I couldn’t get the 26’s over my butt. My thighs were complaining of abuse since they had no room to breathe in the 26’s. I couldn’t even sit down. So I emailed the rep back saying thanks but they didn’t fit oh well – I think I’ll do a giveaway on my blog instead and she emailed me saying she’d replace them for free!!! It doesn’t get any better than that!
BUT WAIT! She even sent along the Halliwell top in the new package!!! I was so flattered I wrote her a gushing (maybe kind of scary??) email. How incredibly thoughtful of her!!
So above is my outfit with the jeans that I put together on Friday. I’m wearing vests layered under blazers lately – for that extra texture/color/sparkle…plus it’s been freakin’ cold lately!

It’s just all OVER the place! I love how it’s delicately irreverent – yet it still proclaims some sort of faith. Or maybe I’m just reading too much into it?? haha


Have a great weekend gals! DIY tutes coming up once I get thru the next mess of birthday parties and Santa Claus helicopter-visits! (Don’t ask.)

P.S. And I really wasn;t going for that totally Taylor look with my hair…I’ve just changed shampoos, and haven’t figured out how to deal with the aftermath of washing it just yet.;-)
Great outfit! The vest, jeans and boots especially amazing.

cool vest 😀
I like how the dog and cat are both looking at the same thing- definitely look like they're up to something lol
Thank you Ashley! (I have Insight to thank for the jeans LOL!) I am digging vests with ankle boots lately – it's totally becoming my signature.
BTW I LOVE your blog – I check it every day to see what you might post!
flight of the robots/krystle: Ha! I love your username! Thank you for the props! Maybe the boots are doing all the work….?;-)
alex*at*aufdemaur: Thanks! Options with clothing are always the best! And yes – those two are ALWAYS up to something- when not savagely rolling around in a pile of fur and claws. Satan incarnate (s) I tell ya!
Thanks for your comments!

Girl, I'm afraid you might be lacking in the self-esteem department (apologizing for your hair, your rant on not winning the blogger contest, etc). You're a very pretty girl with beautiful skin and lovely hair. Work it! No apologies necessary!
I love that vest. It's even more amazing that you can take it apart.
Diana: Actually, to clarify my statement about my hair – I wasn't apologizing about it specifically; what I meant was that I wasn't trying to rip off Taylor's look entirely. I have an ironic, sort of self-deprecating sense of humor; sometimes it doesn't come across well when typed. But you are right, I also have difficulties with self-esteem – and the inevitable comparisons I begin doing between myself and other “style” bloggers out on the internet. I am working on it, and comments like yours really help! Thank you<3
Joylynn: I know!!! I was smitten with the vest immediately – it's so lovely to have a piece that's actually a 2-in-1.
Thanks for your comments, ladies!

Im glad to see that people are actually writing about this issue in such a smart way, showing us all different sides to it. You're a great blogger.
Superb blog post, I have book marked this internet site so ideally I’ll see much more on this subject in the foreseeable future!
