Wardrobe Randomness

These are just a couple of shots of stuff. The first is because people are always telling me I wear clothes that are too big and baggy. I don't always--it's just that the interesting clothes tend to be loose-fitting. Here's a totally-boring-but-not-baggy outfit:

Like I said, totally boring. Tie-dyed tee, thrifted jeans.

Me dancing like a goober on the sidewalk. 

 Born shoes I love but don't wear often because they have--yikes!--heels. Plus I have a hard time finding jeans long enough--esp. since I don't buy jeans until I can get them either thrifted or on clearance. I like good jeans, but I don't like to pay a Good Jeans Price, you know? Luckily the shoes were super cheap at Nordstrom's Rack in Dallas.

OK, here's something I *did* pay full price for. Yikes. Judy Coates Perez had one of these a couple years ago at the quilt show in Houston, and I fell in love. But I did NOT want to pay that much for another bag (I have, um, let's just say I have a couple, OK?). I figured that, if I waited, I could get it on sale eventually or find it at BJ's. No luck--these bags just keep on selling, and even the ones on eBay are not cheap. So I finally just heaved the big sigh and bought one. I think waiting two years was pretty good, though, right? As if that's justification.

A while back I posted/tweeted that we were out following some quail. We went to ship a box at UPS and were driving around (it's at the edge of town) and saw some quail. A LOT of them. I tried to herd them back toward The EGE so he could get a good photo, but those little suckers are quick.

 This was the best we could get:

But the light was good, so he just took photos of me:

This is an altered black knit Bryn Walker vest over a pair of fuchsia Hue corduroy leggings. On top I have a yoolie and a couple of scarves from the street in Manhattan. My favorite black Born boots (I liked the brown ones so much I hunted down a pair of these, new, on eBay).

OK. Back to work~~thanks for coming by for coffee with me! XO
