Oh...hey...1993, never thought I'd hear from you again.
Are the 90's calling? All we hear is how the 80's are back...and they totally are (I can't decide if I'm for or against this) but the 90's flannel is everywhere too, right? Last night my friend Heather and I took a quick trip to Eugene (I've never been to Eugene more in my life than the past month) and our last stop was WalMart for some fabric...of course we are women and we had to stop and browse the clothes real quick.
And there shining in fluorescent lights was Miley Cyrus' mug. Barf. I'm not a fan, I don't get it and I'm glad my daughter is anti...of course she was told to be anti but whatever, that's totally a different discussion.
The point, I saw this great purple flannel dress (I use the term dress very lightly...maybe a dress for a 16 year old but for me, more of a long tunic) and I was oddly attracted to it. It was kind of white trash and when I looked at it I heard Pearl Jam and Smashing Pumpkins playing within the walls of my head. I took it off the rack and held it. I kind of liked it, it looked comfy and it was really soft to the touch. As we were looking at fabrics I decided I should try it on, why not? So I did. And I loved it. It was cute and as lame as this is I knew that it was totally me...which is kind of depressing...my inner 90's 15 year old must be feeling the need to spread her wings. Then the price tag, $11. Sold. So I present to you my 90's carefree look, courtesy of Miley Cyrus...I kind of want to punch myself for adding $$ to her bank account...even if it's only $11.
Wow, the lighting here sucks. You can't see all of it's purpley wonderfulness...and my beautiful mustard colored headband...I love that headband.
Headband: ZIDA
Tank: Shade
Dress/Tunic: WalMart
Leggings: ON workout leggings...they are capri length, so I can't get too far without tucking them back into my boots.
Boots: Honestly I don't remember, it's either, Kohls', Payless or...possibly Target...I didn't even know I had them till Heather pointed them out a couple weeks ago.
There you have Day two of the challenge...I honestly have no clue what I'm going to wear tomorrow. I'm babysitting and I'm starting to think I should have worn this tomorrow....oh well.

You look fantastic! I love that you are trying something new and not getting sucked into the depths of sweatpants covered in spit-up... oh wait, that's just me.
Confession- I, too, have been strangely drawn to the Miley line at Wal-Mart. Why is that?
