The Size 16 Skinny Jean Experiment

If I took a picture of myself everyday before I walked out the door to review my outfit, I've come to realize I would likely never make it out of the house.

The things that I think are so darling, so cute, so with-it... actually aren't.  So after this post I am going to never take my picture again.  I will pretend to be blissfully unaware of my fashion awkwardness.

I want to wear skinny jeans.  I bought some Denizen jeans from Target and two tops that I thought would look super chic and trendy.  I took them home and tried them on in front of a mirror.  And camera.

Why the mask?  Well, if you all saw my smiling face you'd tell me that I'm cute and blah blah blah.  I want objective I-don't-know-that-masked-person opinions.  Got it?  Good.

The first is actually a dress.  I've loved the leggings under a dress look and... maybe I should just give up.  LOL  Actually it's not that bad but I'd like to find more of a true tunic of a top.



And here is where you will see my just how much of a fashion 'tard I am.  Silky blood orange top with tiny poofed sleeves.  Hey Nina, poofed sleeves make you look quarterbackish.  And the length is sorely lacking. Hey Nina, cover yo' ass!



So there it is.  I'm not giving up on skinny jeans.  I realize that I'm several years late to the skinny jean party.  By the time I figure out what tops to pair them with... the party will be over. So I'm hanging onto my flares from 07.  hehehe
