How's THAT for a mouthful of a title?!?! However, it perfectly describes what I wore yesterday when I taught real estate class. My class seemed to like me, and they all paid very close attention, so I guess this look didn't totally suck. Yay!
Ahhh. From this photo you can see how triangularly-shaped I truly am. Yup, I'm a pear. And now that I'm almost FORTY FREAKIN' YEARS OLD, I've gotten (mostly) over it. The way I see it, all that extra fat in my hips and booty will keep me alive during a famine. Not that the time for famine is nigh, but it's nice to be prepared.
Here I am, being all stern and teacher-like (Yeah, right. I never look like this in class...):

Haah, well if it makes you feel better, it's healthier biologically if women carry their weight in their bum/hips VS their stomach.
ReplyDeleteI love your vest! It seems they're creeping back out of the woodwork again around the blog-o-sphere. I, for one, am happy to see them~
Holy crap...you ARE NOT almost 40. NO WAY. I thought you were mid-20s.
ReplyDeleteVest is very cute!
I always think of vests as a masculine piece, but the color of yours is so feminine and pretty! Eh, it's the whole "grass is always greener" thing - I tend to carry all my weight on top and I'm annoyed by it (but like you said, acceptance is all I can do!)
ReplyDeletePshaw, almost 40! Try 44!
ReplyDeleteYou look awesome for almost 40. It's not fair! *runs away sobbing*
