What I'm Reading This Week #34
Hello you sassy beast! Ready for another flip flappin' fantastic weekend? Yes indeedy, Ally Sheedy. It's been a week of working ahead for me as I try to work on ideas for holiday posts. I know, no one is ready for Christmas but spit balling stuff is actually getting me excited for the season. I like to try to give myself the month of December off from writing new posts (except updating weekly happenings) so all I have to do is respond if needed. It lets me take a little mental break during the holidays to try to enjoy what I can then hop back into the new year hopefully rested and ready to roll. We did book our 30th anniversary trip, which is the same one we had to cancel this year and of course got travel insurance. It's just nice to have something to hopefully look forward to and it makes you go "where the heck did 4 1/2 years go?" because it seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 25th. Do people even celebrate their 30t...
I am also glad to see the 1880's beard and mustache trend fade away. There was always an underlying superiority vibe that came with that too. Won't miss it! Aside from that, I am not sure I know of enough trends to have many issues with things. I suppose I am tired of the trend of everyone being in a cold civil war over politics but it will take a miracle to change that one anytime soon.
ReplyDeleteI too loved 80s big hair. My hair does not do big, it's just to thin and fine - but I loved the look on other people and wouldn't mind seeing it comeback.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of facial hair on men. Period. So a comeback of clean shaven faces would be appreciated, but I don't see it happening.
One look that bugs me is the longer than capri pants but not really long enough pant worn with booties and leaving skin between pants and boots. I know it's they style, I see it everywhere, but I just don't really understand. Either wear capris and sandals/tennis shoes or pants that are long enough for you with boots. lol. My inner grumpy old man is showing.
Glad to see acid washed jeans go away. Would like to see bootcut come back as I find them more flattering on me and I have several pair.
ReplyDeleteI am not a fan of skinny jeans -- on anyone. I don't care the body shape, they just aren't flattering. And I can't stand low-rise jeans where the pockets are halfway down the legs and even if you don't a muffin top, you do now! Bad look all around.
