moustaches & big pants

watch out now, look who's busting out of her shell and embracing the awkwardness of being on the other side of the lens.

this would make so much more sense if you could see the snow that was falling

shirt: forever21, blazer: thrifted, pants: LOFT, boots: jc penney, belt: american eagle, scarf: me


what?  how'd that get in there?  you know, it's pretty hard to be too stiff or serious when moustaches are involved.  maybe i should make this a schtick (see what i did there?  moustache...stick...schtick?).  i think this could be the thing that really takes this blog to the next level.  holler if you're with me.

you may have to pretend you didn't see this outfit come 30 for 30 time.  these pieces are strong contenders.  in fact, the pants are a must, considering i only have about four pairs that currently fit me.  i don't expect to garner any sympathy on this issue, being that the reason my pants don't fit is that i lost a bunch of weight unexpectedly following the end of my marathon training.  which makes me think...crap...what if i lose some more weight from P90X and i find myself in the midst of 30 for 30 with no clothes that fit me?  that is simply unacceptable.

i guess if push comes to shove, i'll have to finally learn how to use my ancient sewing machine...

...or binge on milk and cookies.  decisions, decisions.

  1. How cute are you? And you're right, it's hard to be serious when moustaches are involved. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for the 30 for 30.

  2. It's a nice problem to have--getting too thin for your clothes! Good luck with P90X--I've started a dozen times and never made it past week one. You're inspiring me to try again!

  6. What a fun set of photos. And, what a great outfit. All those pieces are perfect for the 30.
    I think it is great that you are pushing yourself and getting in better and better shape. What a great thing! You can always use safety pins during the 30 ;)

  9. @ Gertrude - i hear it all the time. it's to the point that when people say, "has anyone ever told you..." i finish their question for them. "told me that i look like reese witherspoon? yes." and i never get sick of it :)
