plaidtastic pants

I decided to write a post today for those who need a break from Uncle Bob or those in post-turkey coma. Let's be honest, a photo shoot tomorrow would be impossible as a)  none of my clothing will fit, and  b) I too will be in post-turkey coma.

So, Happy Thanksgiving! And brace yourselves for some plaidtastic pants (you're probably thinking Austin Powers or Clueless, but stay with me).Blazer: Banana Republic (second hand), $9.25. T-shirt: Hanes (dad's). Pants: Averrce (second hand), <$1. Shoes: Madden Girl (hand me down).

Not too bad for $10.Yikes, so among exercising (notice tension surrounding upper button), I'm going to add "expose self to natural sunlight." Pale skin aside, behold my church bazaar polyester plaid pants. Or simply, my plaidtastic pants. Technically I paid less than $1 for these high-waisted stretch pants, but I am beginning to find them both aesthetically pleasing and practical.See? Practical. Perfect for any activities that involve below-the-hip movement.For the record, Madden Girl has some cute flats/boots out and about in stores like DSW, Marshalls, TJ Maxx. Affordable and usually comfortable.
As you can see, the "three percent spandex" is intended for elasticity. So maybe after all these are the perfect pants for Thanksgiving day...

Next up: my mission to wear a $1 sweater skirt, otherwise known as the granny skirt, out in public.
