Stupid Dresses.


So Lauren has started posting and I thought I should get on the blog boat. I also love that she made a couple really awesome culturey-blog posts about avant garde film makers and I'm making a post about a kind of dress I hate that I have in fact tried on at TJMaxx. TJMaxx. Lauren is talking about Givenchy and I am talking about TJMaxx. Whatever I'm over it.

In any case, these dresses are all over the place though the one I'm posting is from shopcuffs.com. Thar it is.

As Lauren so astutely pointed out, pencil skirts are great. Not on me, per se but great none the less. Adding a pencil skirt to a flimsy top and expecting the proportions to stay right is a very hefty wish, and making that dress in a Large is equivalent to asking a girl between the sizes of 10 and 14 to load herself into some sausage casing.

Not awesome. So instead of trying on my pencil skirts of which I have many, we are going to Starbucks, just so that I can ensure that I won't look good in anything that draws attention to my midsection. Apple shape, you know. Seventeen magazine says I'm an apple shape. The most round.
