two words that should never go together....

well, another long break. i am steadfast in my refusal to be yet another abandoned blog on the web. there are thousands of them. i am always thinking in my head about all these things i can post & write about.. & then along comes a shiny object. 


yesterday, i was packing to come to baltimore, where i am attending some training & ruing the fact that i have no jeans that i wear (i can't remember the last time i wore pants) because i am not happy with the way they look on me. i find myself feeling overdressed almost all the time. my goal is to get back into a pair of jeans. & i won't bore anyone with the details of all of that. so this morning as i was getting dressed, a commercial came on that caught my attention....

pajama jeans

i certainly don't begrudge the concept- nothing wrong with the desire for & being comfortable. however if you are planning on leaving the comfort & sanctity of your home, you should not be clad in anything that has 'pajamas' in the description. there are standards, after all, that supersede comfort. which brings me to my next recent fashion trend that caught my attention...

jeggings

very few of us can pull off jeggings. my personal belief is anytime a new word is blended to describe a new item of clothing- that's a bad sign. clearly, conan cannot pull off jeggings. they don't leave much to the imagination, do they? 

now, of course, there are those who can pull off jeggings & look good in them. my question is- why would they choose to? to me, it's the equivalent of wearing pajama jeans with a designer label. here are a few who can. i am not among them- big surprise there! either is conan!


sienna miller, heidi klum & courtney cox can do it- why do they want to though?

                    

                     

ah- good to be back...
