Edition 57: Fashion Friday

April 3, 2009 ·

Okay, so remember how last Friday I showed you how Caroline had decided to organize her closet using a Sharpie marker? And y’all were sweet enough to tell me how to get the marker off? But then I told you that I adore the marker because it will make me smile every time I see “Witt!” and “Sring!”?

Well, by noon last Friday, the nice folks at Sharpie had emailed me and offered to send me one of their fancy new stainless steel Sharpies to try. Who’s going to turn that down? A dang fool, that’s who.

So yesterday my fancy new Sharpie showed up via FedEx and it is delightful. It’s like a sophisticated Sharpie and if there is anything I crave in my life more than chips and queso, it’s sophistication. That’s the whole reason I read “US Weekly”.

Anyway, I’d just like to say WELL DONE SHARPIE HEADQUARTERS.

About a year ago, I made it a personal challenge to link to Anthropologie as much as possible with the hopes that they might send me perhaps a single dishtowel. A dishtowel. My expectations could not be lower. But Anthropologie never calls; they never write. It’s like coming home from summer camp all over again.

But yet the folks at Sharpie found me without even a direct link to guide them. They are like the CIA of corporate America and I applaud them.

I also applaud my new stainless steel Sharpie which I will keep on a very high shelf because it is my precious.

Now for some questions:

1. Rachel asks: “At what point are you too old to shop in the Juniors/Misses?”

I don’t know. I’ll let you know when I get there. I always think it’s a score when you can find something (especially trendy items) in the Juniors department because it’s usually less expensive than the clothes for grown-ups.

It’s not so much about age as it is about body type and how clothes fit your body. It also depends on the store because some department stores have better Junior departments than others. I’ve had luck finding cute things like these in the Nordstrom Junior department, but I probably won’t be buying clothing with the brand name “L8ter” any time soon.

Nor will I revisit Esprit.

The important thing to remember is that you’re going to wear a bigger size in Junior clothing than you do in other things and that’s okay. Your self-esteem shouldn’t be tied to a number on a tag. It should be tied to how good your hair looks.

And also remember that there comes a time when it’s better to leave some trends to the teenagers because it’s a right of passage to wear clothing that will make you look back at your high school pictures and cry.

2. Lilah asks: “What kind of sock do you wear with a shoe like this? Do you wear those half sock thingies or tights or no socks? If it’s no socks, how do you keep your feet and your shoes from being stinky

You can wear half sock thingies only if they don’t show. Tights if it’s really cold.

Other than that, I have to go with no socks.

The stinky feet question is a good one and is also why you will never see me wearing flats when the weather gets warm. My suggestion is to sprinkle the shoes with a little baking soda. I have no idea if it will actually help, but I felt like I needed to offer some type of suggestion and it works for my refrigerator.

I just like to throw out all kinds of unsubstantiated advice. It’s essentially the entire basis of Fashion Friday.

3. Anne asks: “I need a denim skirt. What color denim for summer? Can you wear a dark rinse year round? And would you do a pencil skirt, or A-line?”

I would love nothing more than to find a great denim skirt, but it has proved to be my fashion nemesis. I just can’t ever find exactly what I’m looking for and so I go without. That is my tale of denim woe.

However, I did see this skirt in the Boden catalog and think it’s darling, although those pockets might be better in theory.

I also saw this denim pencil skirt which looks so cute on the model with a tucked in shirt and belt. Do you know how often I’d wear a tucked in shirt with a belt in the summertime? Exactly never times.

That’s all for today because I have to finish packing for my trip. It’s like trying to stuff an elephant in a shoebox.

Laissez les Bon Temps Roulez, y’all. (I know Hebrew and Cajun. Sophisticated is the word you’re looking for.)

Here’s Mr. Linky if you have anything to add.

    All that hard work and Anthropolgie just doesn’t get it. At least Sharpie is on to you! 🙂 Great post…I always love Fashion Fridays, even if I’ve gained too much weight to wear my cute stuff. THAT is like trying to stuff an elephant into a shoebox. 😉 Have fun on your trip! 🙂

    Kudos to Sharpie. I’ve always liked them.

    Enjoy your trip. Good luck with the packing – never an easy task for me.

    I linked for the first time today. I feel very special. To think someone may take fashion advice from me is like a dream come true. I’ve lived with ridicule long enough! 😉

    Thanks letting us play along.

    denim skirt at Target and really like it, although the picture on the Target site doesn’t look that cute. I think dark denim is okay for summer.

    I’m coveting your Sharpie.

    I wrote a post about Chick-fil-A once and a marketing guy from their headquarters commented and sent me free stuff. I’d call that a SCORE if there ever was one.

    Also, baking soda in shoes works but isn’t comfy. When I put my shoes in my closet (especially Uggs) I put dryer sheets in them. Works like a champ and you don’t have some nasty leftover baking soda paste on your feet the next time you wear the shoes. And don’t ask me how I know about nasty baking soda paste on feet.

    Enjoy NOLA. Eat at Emeril’s. Sit at the counter overlooking the kitchen if possible and marvel at the culinary skillz going on in there.

    Try spraying your feet with aerosol deodorant/anti-perspirant. It doesn’t eliminate all of the smell and sweat, but it certainly helps.

    I am jealous of your Sharpie! In fact, I am sending my kids to their rooms to color their entire walls with a regular old Sharpie so I can blog about it and get a fancy new stainless steel Sharpie!

    April 3, 2009 at 8:35 am

    Wow – Rachel (great name, btw) stole the dilemma right out of my frettin’ mind. I bought a pair of leggings yesterday and I don’t know if I have the gumption to wear them. They look fine, my legs are as skinny as they’ve been in years, it’s just the fact that I feel like a 12 year old while wearing them. I celebrate my double sweet sixteen this summer, so I’m not ancient, but I’m far from 12.

    Sharpie is a great company – owned by the same company that owns Graco – and they are very social media savvy. Yay for the aluminum Sharpie. And now a trip to Staples is in order.

    And I’m glad to know that I’m not the only one for whom a denim skirt is an elusive wardrobe enigma. 🙂

    Take off to NO – fine. Dine with Beth Moore – sure. Stainless Steel Sharpie!!! What?? I am officially jealous ….

  19. Sara Whitlock

    April 3, 2009 at 9:16 am

    Have a fabulous trip! As I said on BooMama, I’m trying hard not to be jealous of you two together sitting under Beth’s teaching.

    In the midst of a white haze of fury over some customer service issues I’m currently having…it does me good to see Sharpie’s iniative. And I will be purchasing some stainless steel markers, oh yes.
    Also, I am loving your writing more and more each day. Today I had tears from the chuckles.
    Have fun in NOLA. (:

    I just started being able to shop in the Juniors section again after years of having just a little bit too much junk in my trunk to get away with it. It’s so much fun! They sometimes have way cuter stuff than in the Misses section. And forget the Women’s section entirely! Apparently Woman means “wide and frumpy” in Retail Speak.

    Okay, I am little jealous of the cool sharpie. I need one!

    Now, back to denim skirts I have been looking for the perfect one too! If you ever come accross one let me know.

  24. TEAMThompson

    April 3, 2009 at 9:55 am

    I can’t believe you aren’t taking my advice and skipping NO for a weekend of LOST!!! Oh well. Eat some bread pudding for me.

    I’m heading out to look for a new Sharpie now. Have a safe trip and a great weekend!

    April 3, 2009 at 9:57 am

    I love that your sharpie is “your precious”…I can actually envision you saying “my precious” as you put it up on its high shelf!

    You slay me!

    Happy Friday.

    Ok, I’m not the greatest at high tech stuff, so I’m gonna try and hope this will work!
    For the cute flats, I LOVE flats (seeing as how I am quite tall and tho there may be special occasions I like to wear heels, flats are my shoe of choice mainly), I would suggest buying socks similar to these: http://www.footsmart.com/P-Seam-Free-Loafer-Socks-4-Pairs-98154.aspx
    They have them in black, nude, white and pretty much any color you want and for most flats, they stay hidden! Be careful of the nylon ones tho…if your feet do sweat, they will not hide the smell! You can find these socks at target, payless or pretty much any place that sells shoes!

    Love your blog!

    Girl, I have the CURE for the stinky feet/no socks with ballet flats issue. Well, I don’t exactly have the cure as much as Dr. Scholl’s has the cure, but it works like a dream! http://www.drscholls.com/drscholls/productSearch.do?method=doProductDetailsLookup&searchArg=26

    It will change.your.life.

    I wish I was half as smart as the people at Sharpie. They make markers for crying out loud! Yet we LOVE them and buy them in every shape, color, tip size, and now material. Brilliant!

    Not only is the denim skirt my nemesis – so is the denim capri. I cannot find a cute pair that fit my body to save my life!

  34. Tara

    April 3, 2009 at 12:12 pm

    Now that is a stinkin awesome sharpie! I hope they have them in their fun bright colors. Oooh I have a weakness for pens, markers, post it notes…and all things ‘officey’…. I know, pretty cheesey 🙂 But hey what’s a girl to live for when all I do is make grocery lists and cleaning lists?

    Love the denim pencil skirt, but not sure I can still pull that off. And those shoes were adorable.

    Props to Sharpie for finding you!

    Re: the Sharpie…..don’t tell anyone but my husband suffers from a disorder that I call…”WITIAPD” “what if there is a pen depression” ….we have hundreds….yes hundreds of sharpies….large small all colors pens gel ball point etc…..so if there is ever a shortage we will be in business…..people will HAVE to come to us if they want to WRITE anything!!

    April 3, 2009 at 1:04 pm

    I’m SUCH a writing utensil nerd- I always have tens of pens and pencils in my purse. That must be what weighs it down. But I’ve never been fortunate enough to see the likes of a stainless steel sharpie. Very cool!

    And you’re just a stone’s throw away from me here in central TX! I’ll wave next time we pass through SA! Since we’ve been here, though, the farthest south we’ve gotten is Austin. So don’t wait up or anything. 🙂

    If you’re going sans socks and want to avoid the stinky-feet problem, opt for sprinkling a little baby powder in your shoes instead. Works every time!

    Hi

    Very cute denim skirts. I have two questions. 1. I am from India, last summer I bought these beautiful silk wrap arounds they are long upto the ankles. I have been reading some of your earlier posts and it looks like your suggestion to wear wrap arounds is by the pool. So, should I not wear them as casual wear outside ?
    2. End of April me, my husband and the kids are going to Reno, NV. We will be in the casino and going to some animal farm during the day. Could you give me some suggestions on what to wear during the day out and what to wear at night in the casino. I don’t think we will be doing any shows.

    April 3, 2009 at 2:18 pm

    A tip on the maxi dresses. Look for one that have ruching(sp?) just under the bra area. It helps you avoid the frumpy look.

    If you add a cute jean jacket during the spring, you can start wearing them now.

  41. Maggie

    April 3, 2009 at 2:47 pm

    I’m not sure if I’ve posted before or not, but anyway, I love your blog and read it all the time. You are just too funny! And I love the Caroline stories-they remind me of my 5 1/2 year old daughter.

    Anyway, I have found some really cute, affordable clothes from DownEast Basics. I usually purchase them in a local store, but they are online. I just found an A-line skirt that fits great. I didn’t see the exact one online, but something similar.

    YAY for Sharpies 🙂

    Dick’s sporting goods (or any place that sells sporting goods) have these sneaker balls that you can open up and they destink your shoes, gym bag, etc. They’re really rather cool.

    oh, God bless you for promoting the stainless steel sharpie! my man would thank you right now if he knew…he’s the official sharpie evangelist. :0) he’s been dying for the new one for months now, and it wasn’t going to be out till late march-early april.

    i’m a pen girl for sure, but not so much into markers.

    i happened to find one last week on the sharpie aisle at hobby lobby! it made for one happy husband when he returned home from his school’s open house that night. :0)

    April 3, 2009 at 6:27 pm

    Typically, I’m just an innocent reader just passing by, but this tip must be shared. This is in response to Lilah’s question–I got a pair of WONDERFUL terry-cloth insoles at ALDO to put in all my flats. They have a leather bottom, so they don’t slip and they add much more comfort than just the plain bottom soles of flats. Plus, they’re washable so when they get a little dirty and stinky, just throw them in the wash and your good to go.
    Go to: http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/accessories/shoe-care/in-soles/40187404-471_072/97 and get yourself a pair! They will change the way you wear your flat footwear forever.

    After reading Beth Moore’s blog entry entitled, “Flying to New Orleans!,” I had an epiphany and realized you might just be headed to the same destination. In that case, I’m so glad you did not stay home to watch Lost all weekend, because even though I love me some Lost, I would forego it for a LP Conference. I’m so sorry I tried to lead you astray. Please forgive me.

    I so love all your posts…you keep me laughing. I am new to blogging, but have loved making so many new friends. Hope you will stop by and see me.

    I am going to have a “card box” giveaway every month. This drawing will be the last day of April. Every comment you leave throughout the month will enter your name in the drawing.
    This NEW blogger was so touched by all the comments I got on the Blog Party, that I decided to make this a monthly GIFT…
    times… I was so blown away by all the responses that I wanted to email each person personally, but TIME… just has not permitted..but I did love reading all of them..I am continuing to introduce my family members and then there will be some fun blogs coming up from Disney World in May. I am so thankful for all my new friends.

Who is Melanie?

Melanie ShankleMy name is Melanie and, in some strange twist of fate, I’m also known as Big Mama because I started this blog in July of 2006 when my daughter, Caroline, was not quite three years old and I was in the process of convincing her that BIG girls use the potty and BIG girls don’t have pacifiers, thus she thought BIG was the highest compliment in the land and began referring to me as BIG MAMA.Read More

Well, we have some news I wanted to share because Well, we have some news I wanted to share because I know many of you are really just here for the Piper and Mabel content. ⁣
⁣
A couple of years ago, Piper contracted a rare fungal infection in her left front paw. It began to invade all her soft tissue and we went to several vet specialists who all agreed there wasn’t any way to treat it short of eventually amputating her leg. We held off on that as long as we could and treated her with meds to slow the growth, but over the last month it became obvious that the foot was causing her pain and it was time. So on Monday, Piper got her left front leg amputated. ⁣
⁣
She’s home now and I’m happy to report that she is doing amazing. Apparently she didn’t get the memo that she is now missing a leg because she hasn’t missed a beat. She’s moving around like a champ and I feel certain she’ll be back to running at the ranch and protecting our home from bearded strangers wearing hats in no time. This is why she is currently on some painkillers and sedatives so she can rest and heal. No one gave her the memo this is a big deal. ⁣
⁣
However, at this point I would like to also give Mabel a sedative because she doesn’t understand why her sister is getting so much attention and is, frankly, a little salty about it. Also special thank you to @alldredgevet who treated our girl like a rockstar.
Back in the high life again. 👍🏻🏈🤍⁣
