Last week, I walked the runwizzle at our local Anthropologie to show off some fall stuff. It was fun, rivaled the GAW runway show, and I learned I don’t change clothes very quickly. Here are some lame iPhone photos of my looks:
[My favorite look: long-on-long navy mohair sweater, cami, silk skirt, and leather bow belt.]
You can’t see the shoes, but these are they. And before you make fun of them, I’m probably going to buy them.
Turquoise wool Clarks-ish looking nurse shoe uglies! [Perfect for doing Nicole's sexy nurse duck footed dance!] So comfortable. So heinous! But I covet them still. Like that sandwich I ate out of the trashcan a few years ago and have yet to live down. [It was sitting on the wrapper, dammit.]
Here, we bring some sass face in a seriously snug sweater pencil skirt and some shoes I… won’t comment on. Ssh.
It should be noted I had to suck in so hard in this skirt, and for so long, I was actually sore the next day.
Starting to feel like myself in this last one:
Genius layering on the part of the styling mavens. I bought the tank the next day, it was so lovely.
Since it’s time to phase out of my summer uniform—which I totally stuck to, by the way—I’m trying to figure out my fall schtick. I’m thinking something like these cords with as many things as I can successfully mismatch them with.
I’m out of the loop. What’s your fall MO going to be? If I decide to try colored denim out now, are they all going to laugh at me?
10 points to me for making back-to-back Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter’s Dead references!
Over and out.

how fun! these clothes were made for you.
thanks, mamacita! xo to you
you look gorge!!
oh, why thank you!!!
Wooooah! So cool looking at you backwards! Dopplewhaaaaat!!?!?!?!?!!
Omg, this is what I’m prepping for right now! You looked fabulous! I’m in LOVE with that brown maxi skirt!
I think I remember that sandwich… ; )
I think there were numerous trashcan meals. The most offensive was that hours-old Big n’ Tasty I ate, threw up after eating, then recommenced eating.
Did you seriously participate in a runway show at Stony Point Anthro? I’m dying.
That’s so cool! How’d you hook that up? By the way, I love the cords you linked too. They’re just like the J Brands I was about to get, but they’re cheaper. Score one for me!

I can’t live down the time I ate chicken fingers out of the trashcan after a really brutal night. They were still in the styrofoam container, mkay?
I am digging the pencil skirt on you!
Will you single handedly be bringing back hippie maxi skirts and grannie shoes? Can I wear my Danskos in public now? I hope they paid you in merchandise.
