crisis point
It's official:I have no idea what I'm wearing this weekend. I just "packed", which should be read as stuffing everything remotely attractive that fits into a suitcase. This strategy postpones the inevitable just a little bit more. Nice.
I actually made some effort this weekend, pulling things out of my closet (actually cleaning my closet for the first time in WAY too long) and putting things back. I made a half-assed attempt at shopping.
but still. No clue.
So for one weekend which has 2 functions that require thoughtful dressing, I have packed:
-black pants
-3 pairs of shoes
-2 different blouses
-2 different black dresses
-My favorite black-with-pink slip dress that I want to wear...but shows little too much cleavage to be appropriate for a wedding. But I'm thinking my mom might have an appropriate black wrap.
-a nice, somewhat hip, skirt and appropriate blouse (but this blouse makes me look extra wide, I think. My mom thinks it's great. which basically proves my point)
-the dress that was made for me for my mom's wedding. This has a couple things going for it. Actually a lot. But my mom got married in May, and this is October. Color wise it works (navy blue) and it's just empire waisted with cap sleeves so cut is no problem...but if it is october weather, the fabric is all wrong. Given the forecast, however, I think it'll work for the actual wedding
-most of the attractive jewelry I own
Anyway. this goes to show 1) I can't pack 2) I have no clothes 3) I need retail therapy 4) have I mentioned that I'll be at yankee stadium tomorrow? I haven't packed for that! aHHHH
