Sarah: What was old is new again
The girls went shopping last Saturday, and I emerged relatively fiscally unscathed. I did, however, purchase a shirt/sweatshirt that gave me great joy to wear today.
My short sleeved sweatshirt has puffed sleeves, a zip front, and kangaroo pockets. Nicole and I discussed the clothing item after I divulged that I (somewhat shamefully) purchased it from Hot Topic.
N: The 80s are back. Your shirt has...
S: Puffed sleeves.
N: And little whales. And pink polka dots.
S: I know. I know.
My mom thinks I should be dressing more as an adult, and to some extent I agree. But really, how many years do I have before I'm too old for a shirt with small water creatures printed all over it?
Not enough years.
I know it's a bit strange to not have my face in the photos, but that way I could take them before I put on makeup.
Posted by sarah at October 26, 2006 06:11 PMum, i am confused as to the usefulness of a shortsleeved sweatshirt. isn't it supposed to be warm? please enlighten me.
