Just Linking: April 20, 2007
Some weekend reading for you:
Fascinating conversation about colored jeans at StyleBites.
- This idea, from anonymous commenter, I love: She wanted some teal ones too but is kinda broke after her latest shopping spree… was thinking of getting them for her birthday but the next thing I know she took her old plain blue ones and dyed them teal! they look simply amazing and the dye was only like 2 pounds or something…
- Additional color schemes to watch out for: DIY camo (green and brown), halloween (orange, or even coral, and black).
- Seriously, I just saw a junior higher, a GUY, walking down the street in front of my house wearing skinny GRAPE purple jeans, black t-shirt, black shoes. A daring look at any age!

Blestwithsons offers a refreshing perspective on the VA Tech tragedy.
Jennifer @ Snapshot asked this haunting question: What Would You Do if You Could Not Fail?
I’m still musing on that one. Other than rearrange my sidebars …
I had a long green overdyed denim skirt some years ago that I wore until it literally fell apart. If the colours are right, the look is great — if they are off they just look wrong. I saw some “chocolate” ones that also had bleaching a while ago. Just ask me how awful they looked!
Wendy, I don’t think I need to ask. Ugh!
this last time i was pregnant, i felt like i looked the best because i paired maternity jeans with non-maternity tops (until the last few weeks when i was too big). i bought some of the extra long t shirts from old navy in a bigger size, so they were more fitted in the belly, which i love.
i mean, it’s the only time when it’s cute to have a belly, aside from when you’re a baby!
also, the junior high boys on my street are always in the skinny jeans skateboarding all over the place.
Thanks for the link love babe!
Muah!
