All I know is that I was walking through the high achieving private school where I work, and I kept feeling a sense of deja vu. Seriously.

Personally? Not into it. You know, the eighties called, they want their leggings back, and all that.

I know I shouldn’t love it, but it’s so so cute. I totally bent and bought the adorable babydoll dress and leggings this summer (the dress, which my husband promptly shrunk in the wash and now is no longer decent even *with* leggings. Sigh.)

Totally cute outfit! And with the super-sweet Abercrombie sweater, will be adorable for fall.

Very cute! Forget the OC, with that outfit you could be on Gossip Girl!

Not that anybody will ever mistake me for anything but a walking fashion DON’T, but I do like the leggings under a mini-skirt look. But it strikes me as incredibly impractical for all but two or three months of the year. I mean, in summer it’s WAY too hot for black leggings (and the to-the-knee ones are just wrong no matter how poor your fashion sense) and in the winter, are you supposed to be barefoot in your adorable little ballet flats? I mean, the whole reason I’m so relieved to get back into full-length black tights in the fall is that I can wear my shoes without chafing barefoot in them.

But maybe that’s just me.

Ali i’m sorry but you didn’t seriously buy leggings did you? yikes. wrong decade. wrong look.

Oh…and by the way whatever you do, dont wear those flats with bare feet all day and then take your shoes off at your desk while you’re eating your lunch. I’m just saying.

I quite like the leggings look. I think you’ll pull it off nicely! 🙂
Make sure you post a pic of you in your new outfit!

Ha! I have that skirt. From American Eagle. Not Abercromie and Fitch. Because, as I’m sure you’re aware, AE and AF are NOT the same store. Abercrombie obviously has way cuter hoodies.

I say, why not Ali? You’ll look great! And, you’re still young. You can pull it off. Besides, I think it’s kinda demure…you know, no more massive 4-inch f**k me shoes and sheer nylons. I like this look 🙂

My friend has a fashion rule i swear by…if you wore it once in your lifetime already (in my case, it was the 80s), you can’t wear it again.

that said, i too have been sucked in and bought clothing that would be absolutely adorable and appropriate for a 29something, got home, and thought “what the heck was i thinking?”. plus, i will see others out wearing highly age inappropriate outfits and in my head i am enacting the dialog of the fashion police on the back pages of US magazine, so I am fearful of being the object of such ridicule.

Growing older sucks. Then again, i look at the women (albeit models) in the Eileen Fisher ads, look at almost any picture of Helen Mirren, and I think, it’s not so bad AND it can be done with style. Just not the style of days gone by.

ohh, can’t wait to see you in your new outfit! sunday night? 🙂

Love it. Love it. Bought some myself, but haven’t had the guts to wear em yet. BTW, LOVE your blog. So entertaining….found it through a friend of a friend type of thing. I’m part-midwest and part-Georgia peach, so we have much in common!
