LOST t-shirts.

by Allison on March 14, 2010 in lusting after clothes · 7 comments

Even though I’m only watching season 3 of LOST {thank you Netflix!} my love for the show is still undying. I found a bunch of LOST fan t-shirts I think I’d like in my closet. Or for my children’s closets. Either way, they’d be great to have in my life.

Are you still watching? Don’t spoil it for me, I haven’t had time to catch up!

hosiery woes-ery

by Kimberly on November 18, 2009 in lusting after clothes, Style · 8 comments

Motherhood and Pantyhose just don’t seem to go together very well. Some say nylons or pantyhose should always be worn with a dress or skirt, some disagree. My personal feeling is that in the summer, hosiery is a bit silly. In the winter time, however, the reverse seems silly. I don’t know the actual consensus on the matter, but I for one hate to have cold legs and unfortunately, I also hate (despise, abhor, dislike) traditional nylons and pantyhose. The slip, they slide, they itch, they run…you know what I’m saying. Add a toddler clinging to your legs, and a wiggly infant on your lap and it’s a most-embarrassing-moment just waiting to happen.
Thank goodness for textured and patterned tights! Even fishnets. Yes, ladies, they are suitable for church, so long as they don’t have trashy seams up the leg. I promise. I’ve been wearing them for a few years now and can attest that they fit better, are longer lasting and more comfortable than regular hose. And very on-trend. Not to mention they withstand the toils of wrestling small children when I’m dressed up.

skinny jeans on a curvy girl.

by Allison October 12, 2009lusting after clothes

I’m officially convinced anyone can wear skinny jeans. I mean if I can wear them, anyone can. I’m a size 12 curvy girl and skinny jeans look pretty foxy on me, flattering even. I’ve tried on a lot of skinny jeans in my time and the only ones, the ONLY ones that look good on [...]

fall shopping

by Kimberly September 11, 2009lusting after clothes

Something about autumn has me jonesing for a shopping trip. Which for me, in this small town, means an on-line shopping trip. And with all the promotions and sales and bonuses from every-which retailer, it’s hard to restrain myself. I love the clean lines, feminine shape and bright color of this sweater from that old [...]

mom 2.0 summit + wardrobe crisis.

by Allison February 19, 2009lusting after clothes

As you read this I am likely flying right over Arizona on my way to Houston to attend Mom 2.0 Summit. I’m probably ordering a diet coke, or a diet dr. pepper if I get really fancy, hold the ice. I hope I’ll be reading the most current People Magazine because, frankly, I haven’t had [...]

thinking ahead to Spring

by Kimberly January 16, 2009lusting after clothes

…and to quickly returning to my normal clothing size. I’ve been charmed by some of the new pieces at, of all places, Old Navy.  Maybe it’s the happy, contrasting colors, or the apparent comfort-factor, or the mommy-functionality that’s tempting me.  mid-rise pants, $32.50. for schlepping around town in comfy style.  hooded henley, $16.50. love those bright [...]
