I’m unsure why people are still insisting on trying to tell me that they don’t like my fashion posts. I don’t like pictures of people’s children taking a dump on the potty for the first time, but I do not tell them that. I mean, they’re children will hate them for it later so what’s the point in posting my own frustration? But since these people’s days have been so rattled by my lululemon scarf, I kindly tell them that they are an idiot and should be consumed more in their own life than mine, but in a very kind, classy way. You know, because I’m so classy. But what upsets me the most, other than poopy children, is that people are never kind enough to write back. They voice their opinion but are suddenly startled when I lay the heat down. What does that even mean? Who knows. It just means they are the worst kind of humans. Stick up for yourselves, people. I just back handed your face, serve it back!

So I pretty much want to wear fake lashes every day of my life. Like, so bad. They are so great. And make my little beady animal eyes look much larger. It’s a miraculous lie. Below are my fake lashes. They say nice to meet you. This is an outfit I wore to Butterjoint in Pittsburgh after cooking too many recipes in a week. This dress is the most comfortable dress ever. And it’s longer so it’s more conservative for you conservative folk out there. I’m obviously not usually one of those people.

{ Red and White Shift Dress from Pink’s Boutique for $40 (this dress goes down to right above the knee and is completely long sleeve) | Black Vegan Leather Jacket found at Inspyre Boutique | Beige Booties from 2010 from TJ Maxx for $50 (ps one of my favorite pair of shoes of.all.time.) – here is a similar pair | Necklace from Pink’s Boutique for $20 }

This outfit was one of my casual outfits I wore in Pittsburgh when we decided to do a little night shopping in Monroeville. I think it was Monroeville. I really never know where I am out there, but I bought some workout clothes at the Gap! Love their stuff! Anywho, if you haven’t noticed, I REALLY love scarfs. Especially vinyasa scarfs. They are the best from fall into winter.

This outfit means nothing to you, BUT TO ME it was a super exciting outfit because it was the outfit I was wearing on my way home back to Colorado. So it was a travel outfit. I wore a pair of booties hoping my suitcase would miraculously weigh less than 50 pounds. It still didn’t, it was 53 pounds. So I ended up carrying my straightener and curling iron around the airport and while flying. Such fun.

Random outfit day in Pittsburgh! These pants are seriously the most comfortable ever. I really wish I could find them online for you, but I’ll keep looking because you deserve to find them. It’s hard to see in the pics but they kind of puff out in the hips which is a look I personally love. Not everyone loves making their hips look larger, but I kind of dig it. I’m weird like that.

Last but not least, another casual and comfy fall outfit. Yet ANOTHER vinyasa scarf. Why am I so obsessed with scarfs?  People keep asking me why I wear my vinyasa scarf. Here’s the deal: I have no idea. I wrap it, fluff it, pull at it and hope that it looks natural. There’s just no method to my madness.

    I like your fashion posts but I like food posts better and WOD posts. Btw, if you love fake lashes, try those semi-permanent lashes!!! If I were single and didn’t have a kid and cared a lot about looking attractive to others, I would totally invest in them cuz it looks great and easy.

    Fashion Fridays! Keep ’em coming! So glad you addressed the eyelashes, since I was having major lash envy. I had the extensions done and my feeling is unless you can go every 2 weeks and get them “filled” it’s really not worth it. Not in my stay-at-home-mom-part-time-fitness-trainer budget. AND yes it does destroy your natural lashes for a while after the fact. DAMN eyelashes, why can’t we all just have fabulous natural lashes! 😉

    I love the fashion posts! I think its been fun to see your blog evolve, and if people only want to come to the blog for recipes, then they can click on whatever they are looking for at the top (or buy a cookbook). I also think Mindy Kaling should you invite you to be a writer on the show…that.is.all. 🙂

    I have to admit, you are right when you say you are weird for liking pants that add more volume to your hips. But, on you it works, so that’s cool – we should wear what works for us. However, I have to say that I LOVE that outfit – I love a bright pant with a variety of neutrals (even if I choose a rather more, ahem, streamlined pant….).

    I saw a few comments from people about finding a photographer – you could use a timer? I assume you are currently using your smart-phone (about which I know nothing, being the sheepish owner of a dumb-phone) so I assume it has no timer capacity. However, even your totally boring average point-and-shoot will have a reasonable timer, then you can take pictures of yourself anywhere you can find a flat surface to prop it on. Because, I would offer to take your pictures, but I’m assuming you don’t want to come all the way to CT for that….

    Anywho, keep it up, I love the fashion friday posts no matter how you do them!
