if you like, follow me on Tumblr. I update that a bit more, just because it's easier to write quick little life-blips. I have a load of posts queued on that one too.
so on 9 April I decided to finally wear these pants.
High-waisted
mustard yellow
woolen
ski pants
from the early 60s.
They were my grandmother's.
I got some weird looks; The Pants even got sarcastically tweeted about.
This is what I aim for, folks!

(also have I told you guys about my new boyfriend)
(he's adorable)
(he looks like Matt Smith and Benedict Cumberbatch made a child that had Amy Pond's hair colour)
(he's the bass player in a rather successful local band)
(he's going to Princeton next year)
(he's very smart)
(and likes going on weird adventures with me)
(it is very exciting)
(he's basically the perfect human being for me)
(it's very odd)
(I keep expecting him to be gay or something because he's too good to be true)
(so yeah)
(he lives in the next town over so we can't see each other all the time)
(but it's okay because he has a car)
(and also he called me last night just to talk)
(which was adorable)
(nobody ever calls anybody anymore)
(*dies*)

ReplyDeletesecond: "he looks like Matt Smith and Benedict Cumberbatch made a child that had Amy Pond's hair colour." that is freaking awesome. i love both of them so much. and i also love how you spell "color" with a u. so much more sophisticated, yeah?

ReplyDeleteomg are you dating a ginger
ReplyDeleteI looked at my dashboard and was like "omg yellow ski pants"! You are workin' it, girl! :)
ReplyDeletehahaa, that tweet is hilarious-it's stupidity, I mean. Because, even though trends/fashion/whatever is totally overrated and possibly might not even exist, mustard yellow and high waisted IS in. Like TOTALLY in. At least where I'm from. Ahhh, oh well. People will be people.
ReplyDeleteI love those trousers. To like, a level that I would probably even steal them and I have never stolen anything.
ReplyDeleteYet. Until I find these trousers...
And yay for nice boyfriends!
I love those pants. That's so cool. Isn't funny that those were instyle 45 years ago?
ReplyDeleteBut still, they are cute. :)
Gosh you rock those pants girl! I love them!
ReplyDeleteYou got a ginger? NO FAIR!!! (Yeah, I totally crush on gingers, blame Rupert Grint and Allen Leech for that) Congrats on the boyfriend! He sounds ah-mazing and dreamy. :)
I am seriously in love with those pants. <3 And congrats on the new boyfriend! He sounds great. :)
ReplyDelete~ Abby

ReplyDeleteeverything you wear suddenly becomes fresh and beautiful. and, well, you aren't going to just leave us hangin' with this idyllic gentleman friend of yours, right? you would not be so cruel. :)

ReplyDeletegirl. who cares if mustard high waisted pants are in (THEY ARE)? you should make them in style (YOU DO). so there.
ReplyDeleteum. i need pictures of this DW/Sherlock bf. stat.
I bet your boyfriend is "RUDE. AND NOT GINGER." Sorry. I saw a ginger comment up there and couldn't resist, even though that's the wrong doctor. Seriously though, Doctor Who and Benedict Cumberbatch = match made in heaven, and we need pictures, stat!
