Casual Friday

July 22, 2011

I am allowed to wear jeans to work on Fridays, though I don’t always take advantage of this perk.  There was a long time that I didn’t wear jeans unless I absolutely had to wear them.  Jeans are not the most comfortable garment, and when you are trying to squeeze into a pair that’s a size too small…well, you just opt not to wear them.

Nowadays I have a bunch of jeans that actually fit!  It’s great!  These jeans are probably my most worn jeans, and I always need to wear a belt.  With the current lower waist styles, and my lack of hips, it means that I need a belt to keep my pants up.  Generally if I don’t wear a belt I can pull my pants off without even unbuttoning them.  I think that would make my body shape a ruler, eh?

Shirt – Anne Taylor LOFT

Hair Day #15 –

This hairstyle is pretty fun, and garnerned compliments from strangers.  I think next time I will put some smoothing serum of some sort on before braiding and twisting.  It was a bit unkempt with all the wayward hairs that I had to smooth down afterwards.  I braided up the back until I got to the top of my head and then did a ponytail.  I split it into 3 sections and did a two strand twist on each section.  Then I pinned them in place around my crown.
