Edition 51: Fashion Friday

February 13, 2009 ·

I know that I’ve expressed my frustration at the new Target (have I mentioned how far it is from my house?) many, MANY times. On the bright side, I’ve cut way back on my Mossimo consumption, but there are some days when you just really want to push that big, red cart around the store and check out all the stuff you don’t really need but feel compelled to buy because LOOK HOW CUTE THOSE VALENTINES PLATES ARE THAT I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW I WANTED!

So on Tuesday, Gulley and I made the fourteen minute trip to Target because we needed to purchase Valentine paraphernalia and I desperately needed to get a new pair of jeans for Caroline.

The good news is I found a great pair of jeans for her for only $9.99. The bad news is I was almost suckered in to buying her a pair of pink madras bermuda shorts for $14.99.

Dear Target,

We are in the midst of the greatest recession of our generation. This is not the time to start charging upwards of $10.00 for an item of clothing that doesn’t even consist of a yard of fabric. Please go back to the days of yore when I could purchase some cute Circo child’s items for $4.99. You are getting way too big for your pink madras bermuda short britches.

Also, I resent the fact that you’ve moved to a location that requires me to stop at three additional stoplights and one superfluous stop sign.

Sincerely,

Melanie

Now for the questions.

1. Angie asks: “Is there a way to LEARN to be fashionable? I am truly so bad that sometimes I come downstairs to leave for church and my husband sends me back up to change shoes! Is there hope for me?”

Yes, Angie, there is hope for you.

If you really want to learn more about fashion, then the best place to start is figuring out your own style and taste. Don’t let those things be completely dictated by fashion magazines. Just because something is trendy doesn’t necessarily mean it’s in your best interest.

Oh how I wish I could go back and give that advice to my twenty-year-old self when I sported those bright red jeans from Express with a bedazzled top.

Buy some magazines or look online at different clothing sites and pay attention to the looks you like and what fits your lifestyle. You’ll probably start to see a common theme. Most retail sites have a section that shows full outfits and it can serve as a great guide to putting together a complete outfit including shoes and a handbag.

Another good tip is to start by wearing basics. Wear jeans and a simple black top, then begin adding fashionable accessories like a scarf and a cute pair of earrings.

2. Desha asks: “Where do you stand on ballet flats? I love them, but most of the men I talk to (including my husband) think they are hideous.”

I don’t stand on ballet flats because I think they are hideous.

Ba-da-pum. Thank you and don’t forget to tip your waiter.

Okay, seriously. I don’t dislike ballet flats but, for the most part, I dislike them on me. I think most of my ballet flat issues can be traced directly back to 1985 when I wouldn’t leave the house unless I had on a pair of ballet flats that perfectly matched my oversized Esprit sweater and the lace bow in my hair a la Madonna.

All that being said, I see other people wearing them and I think they look precious. Maybe I should go to some sort of ballet flat therapy so I can get past my bare-feet-crammed-in-synthetic-leather-shoes-with-no-ventilation phobia.

And then I could go actually make myself wear some darling flats like these or these.

But probably not since just looking at them kind of makes my stomach feel funny. It’s my own personal issue. I’m a girl who likes a heel.

3. Christina and Amy separately asked two questions that go together: “Where are some good places to shop online and what items do I feel safe buying online and not trying on?”

I’ll be honest and say that I do a lot of online browsing for clothes, but not a lot of online buying. I am a big fan of the whole shopping experience. I like to walk through the racks of clothes and feel fabrics and try things on in the dressing room. I prefer the instant gratification of immediate purchase as opposed to “your item will ship in 4-5 days and then there will be a 90% chance that it won’t be as cute as depicted on the size 0 model”.

The few exceptions to that rule are Boden and Bluefly, mainly because neither of those sites has a storefront that I can actually visit, which is a good thing because I am more than a little obsessed with Boden and would like to live in their catalog. If I had actual real-life access to this tunic or these shoes, I would be powerless to resist.

And then I’d come home with them and P would make me return them because have I not noticed that the economy is in the toilet?

Sad times.

Have I even answered either of these questions?

Okay, other than Boden and Bluefly, I like to look online at ShopBop, Anthropologie, Gap, Banana Republic, Francescas Collections, Sam Moon, TopShop, J.Crew, Nordstrom and Piperlime.

There is also a great online shopping service that I’ve mentioned before, but I’ll mention it again because it’s been awhile. It’s called Shop It To Me. You create an account where you can enter in the brands you like, the stores you like and the sizes you wear in everything and then twice a week they send you an email listing everything that’s on sale. It’s like your own personal shopper and it is SOLID GOLD.

As for what I think is safe to buy online, I think it all depends on the return policy. If they offer free returns then I wouldn’t hesitate to order something online, but if I’m going to have to pay to ship something back then I’ll usually opt out unless I just have to have it and can’t find it anywhere else.

I guess what I’m saying is that I’m a fashion pessimist. I always assume most things won’t fit or might be made of some kind of itchy synthetic alpaca.

Alright. That’s all the questions for today because it’s actually Thursday night and I’m tired. I need to gear up for our weekend ‘o Valentine festivities. And by that I mean we really don’t have much going on other than plans to listen to some Air Supply while eating Candy Conversation Hearts.

I’m putting up the Mr. Linky if anyone wants to add their fashion two-cents.

Y’all have a great Friday!

    I love the fact that at Target (and at Jo Ann’s, Michael’s, Wal-Mart, etc.) they began pulling out the Valentine (and now Easter) memorabilia before Christmas. Target has gotten very proud of stuff. I don’t mind paying a little more for items, but not from a discount store.

    Have a Happy Valentine’s Day!!!!

    Target HAS gotten pricier! I bought 2 two- peice swimsuits for my daughter yesterday in the juniors area. $14.99 for the top AND $14.99 for the bottoms. So I spent over $60.00 on 2 suits from Target. I told my cashier I had never paid that much at Target for 2 suits before. Now granted, this is (my) Carolines first year in juniors and I may just be comparing prices to the Ciro days of old, but I thought it was a bit much for Target. I thought each peice would be $9.99…I mean it’s not that much material…and don’t even get me started about that.

    I do almost all my shopping online because I have 3 kids 5 and under and taking them into a store where I actually intend to focus on shopping, well, it is torture! I can almost always get free shipping with a coupon code and sometimes even free returns. My 5 year old is a 6 slim in pants and I rarely find that size in stores but always can online! Also, I find the greatest deals on Ebay! Maybe there will come a day when I return to shopping in the physical stores, but for now online definitely works for me!

    I’m not a fan of fashion, I’m a hippy who thinks it terrable that people put so much stock into what others think of your choice of shoes. (Don’t think dirty poncho hippy, I’m more of a stain free t-shirt and flipflops hippy) That’s just my oppinion. I decided to not read the fashion posts but I love your blog so much I couldn’t resist clicking my updated google reader.

    Let me just say, your refrence to Air Supply made my day.

    You know, I think you’re on to something. Part of Target’s appeal is those stinkin’ red carts. They’re so big and bright and SMOOTH. It just feels good to push them. Mmmm…

    AIR SUPPLY!!!!

    I got my 4 year old a pair of jeans at target on clearance the other day for $3.49. I love sales. I don’t even attempt to look for clothes for me right now with no extra money.

    I’d love to hear your assessment of the March In Style magazine. I thought it was the most hideous, vile, over the top edition I had ever seen, and I’ve been a devoted follower since the first issue. There wasn’t a single trend that I would wear for Halloween let alone in public on any given day. Jumpsuits? They have to be joking. What did you think?

    On the brighter side, more expensive kids’ clothes at Target means it’s less likely they were made by six-year-olds in Chinese sweatshops.

    I totally agree with you on Target and their pricing. Sometimes I wonder what they’re thinking.

    Oh – and I LOVE ballet flats. I could live in them. I very well might be a fashion victim.

    When I go to Target, I shop the outer regions. If I go near the middle of the store, I am a goner.

    Things seems to magically jump in that red cart. Especially capri pants.

    We only have one Target in my south Texas city and it’s a 20 minute drive from my house — and it’s the only one in our city. So needless to say I don’t shop there very often.

    And you’re right about their childrens clothes — they are overpriced and they never go on sale. I can go across the street to JCPenney’s and get better quality clothes for a cheaper price. Or even better down the street to Kohls with all the fabulous coupons!!! My current coupon is 30% off (regular price, sale or clearance – it doesn’t matter) and I just got 8 tops for me and the girls for $40!!

  17. Kelly @ Love Well

    February 13, 2009 at 10:42 am

    Like you (and many others), I used to think Target was getting pricier.

    But then I had a baby and started shopping in the toddlers area again, and I realized it’s not Target — it’s just my kids. They are growing up. And once you cross out of 5T and into the land of Kids, the prices change dramatically. (Although, ironically, the amount of fabric doesn’t.)

    You can still get tops and shorts for $3.99 — but only for the little kids.

    I’m not a flat shoe girl either. They’re cute on other people. I don’t know why I keep buying them, I think they make my feet look big.

    I adore flats, but I do think I should have some heels in my life. However, they just kill my feet! How do you go about finding a good, semi-comfortable pair of heels that don’t cost a ridiculous amount of money and that won’t cause me to fall on my face every few feet?

    I do admit that some ballet flats take me back to the late 80’s when I had every color that Sam and Libby made…but as can be seen by your links times have changed. I’ll keep wearing my cute flats and be content. Thanks for answering my question. I feel important now!! =D

    Okay, first of all those black wedges from Boden are TO.DIE.FOR. Love them. But obviously not at $124. I’m waaaaaaaaaaay too cheap for that.

    Second, I love ballet flats, but suffer from the same closed-toe syndrome that you suffer from. Can’t stand it!

    Plus, I also buy Mossimo. And my jeans are way too long for flats. Suits me well though b/c I am a heel girl for sure. Love em.

    I have a “Dear Mossimo” letter. It reads, “Dear Mossimo, can you please make some really cute jeans in a style for moms with all of the mom problem areas that are not hideous. Not all of us can wear “lowest rise” without flashing some crack every.single.time we bend over, which God knows is like a trillion times a day with a toddler. Oh, I’m sure Target & their many customers would appreciate it for that reason as well, as they are first hand recipients of my coin slot every time Saylor drops her binky or current keep-busy toy that I let her play with yet have NO intention of buying. Thank you, my dear Mossimo people.”

And just like that, her first year at Texas A&M is And just like that, her first year at Texas A&M is over. ⁣
⁣After we moved her out of the dorm last weekend, we looked around the empty dorm room and she said, “This has been the best year of my life”. And because moms know these things, I can attest to that. ⁣
⁣
I loved Texas A&M as a student, but I love it even more as an Aggie mom. What it has given my girl over the last year has been beyond anything I even prayed for. The way she has grown in her faith, the incredible friends she has made, the professors and advisors who have guided her, the experiences she’s had, the Aggies beating Alabama at Kyle Field…it’s all been Ephesians 3:20 in action…more than I could ask or imagine. ⁣
⁣
When she left home at the end of last summer it felt like an ending, but what it has actually been is the most beautiful beginning to the future God has written for her. And it’s a reminder to me that the best prayer we can pray as a mom is, “God, this one is yours. You are the author of her story and I trust you to write an amazing one”. ⁣
⁣
Thanks and Gig’em. 👍🏻❤️

In light of all our construction issues this week, In light of all our construction issues this week, I felt like it was time for a special edition of grown up story time because I remembered I actually wrote about the poor tile job in our shower years ago in Sparkly Green Earrings. ⁣
⁣
This is when it pays to have a written history to help myself  remember I shouldn’t have been surprised by anything that transpired this week.
A friend texted me this photo the other day. It wa A friend texted me this photo the other day. It was taken my last semester at Texas A&M and I’m with a group of friends at a Wes King concert at Wolf Pen Creek. (Shout out to those of you old enough to remember what a gift Wes King was to Christian music in the early 90s.) I had recently found my way back to God after a long hiatus and wasn’t entirely sure how I ended up at this concert with some new friends who wore Jesus t-shirts, but was so grateful to be there because I felt content and happy for the first time in years. ⁣
⁣
The point of this picture is that if you look on the left you will see a young Perry Shankle with glasses wearing a white t-shirt. And if you look on the far right you will see a young Melanie Marino with an aggressive side part. I don’t think we even spoke to each other at the concert that night. No one would have put us together because we were complete and total opposites. And I like to think God laughed knowing what was ahead. ⁣
⁣
A year later, we started dating. And three years from just about the day this photo was taken, we were engaged. And currently, we’ve been married almost 25 years and are cleaning out the attic together today which is the height of romance. What I’m saying is dream big, kids. You never know what is waiting right around the corner, right in front of you, that will change your life. ⁣
⁣
Side note: If you look closely you’ll see that my friend Jen and I are sitting on a blue striped comforter. Perry still sleeps with that exact comforter every single night so what I’m saying is that on that night back in 1994, he had no idea he was with his future wife and a blanket he would treasure, lo, all these years later. God is good. ⁣
⁣
Also, as for the attic clean out, he informed me last night that he did own two horses when we started dating. That’s why there is a saddle in our attic. I had no idea.
Big night out for Mom and Dad tonight. ⁣ ⁣ We Big night out for Mom and Dad tonight. ⁣
⁣
We went to the wedding of the daughter of some dear friends and it was at the same church and the same reception venue as ours was almost twenty-five years ago. ⁣
⁣
We agreed we barely remember anything about that day. It’s all a blur. But we agreed we like each other more now than we did all those years ago when we had no idea all that our life together would hold.  And that feels like a win because I was pretty crazy about him then. ⁣
⁣
Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Glass! Loved celebrating with you. 💕
Here’s a confession: I hate waiting. I don’t l Here’s a confession: I hate waiting. I don’t like sitting in the unknown. I’m not sure any of us do. ⁣
⁣
The truth is waiting makes me feel anxious as I worry about timelines and what ifs and when I’ll have answers. And it dawned on me today that waiting is really the crux of Good Friday. ⁣
⁣
I think one of the most powerful moments in the Bible is when Jesus is on the cross and with a loud cry breathes his last breath. Mark 15:38-39 says, “The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. And when the centurion who stood there in front of Jesus, saw how he died, he said, “Surely this man was the Son of God!”⁣
⁣
Think about that. The sky has grown dark, the earth begins to shake and then as Jesus cries out with his last breath, we learn that what has been an impenetrable, thick curtain in the temple - there to separate us from the Holy of Holies - tears in two. It’s powerful enough that this centurion, a battle-tested leader in the Roman army, witnesses it and realizes Jesus is absolutely who He claimed to be. ⁣
⁣
Jesus’ death and resurrection are the moments that changed eternity and gave hope when all was lost. The ultimate victory of good over evil. But there was also waiting. ⁣
⁣
The centurion may have realized that Jesus was the son of God, but everyone had to wait to see what that meant. They didn’t know the stone would be rolled away. They didn’t know the crucifixion was just the beginning of a story of hope and redemption. All they knew on Friday was pain and loss and darkness. They had to wait for Sunday and they didn’t even know what they were waiting for…maybe just a small sign of hope. ⁣
⁣
Don’t we do that? Question if He’s good or if He will come through for us? Wonder how things will work out when all seems lost? Is He who He says He is and what does that mean for our life?⁣
⁣
Here’s what I know. Jesus is the wonder our heart is waiting for. He is our peace, redemption, and salvation. He breaks strongholds, takes away our fear and shame, redeems what has been broken and lost. He does more in our lives than we even know to ask for. We are never so broken that He can’t restore us. ⁣
⁣
All that we wait for, all that we hope for…HE IS.
