But, seriously, as exciting as that is, it's not the real reason I started this blog.
The real inspiration for this blog came in the mail on Friday. I received THIS:
THIS, my friends, is a real-live leopard-printed Chico's Passport Rewards Card. And I swear they must send it to all Jewish mothers over 40, because I never shop there! Or at least I certainly don't shop there enough to justify a Passport Rewards Card. I only go there when I've just had a baby and I don't fit into my clothes and want to be what they call a Size 1. Or when I think chunky jewelry might distract from a misplaced zit. Or when I need a solid green T-shirt for a middle school event the next day and I don't have time for the mall. Am I rationalizing? Either way, I guess it's time for help.
The third and final reason I started this blog is that my husband and three boys have banned me from further discussion of my new boots. I am so excited about my boots, but I have no idea how and when to wear them. To be honest, my 10 year-old son calls them my "ironic boots" since I'm scared to get them anywhere near snow. (Are they waterproof? Are they too long? Can I wear them with leggings? If so, where?) I need a forum to discuss these things at length. So, forgive me if it seems shallow, but a fashion blog it is!
