Wardrobe DYSfunction

You’ve heard of bad hair days. I’m living in a world of bad clothes days.

Look at me.

This is my typical outfit everyday. T-shirt, oversized sweats, and tennis shoes. I didn’t show you my face and hair because I didn’t want to show off. I mean, clearly, if my outfit looks this great, my hair must be to-die-for. And please ignore the drooping plant in the background — I’ll get to it eventually.

I’m not sure how to remedy this situation except to go through my closet and dresser and just throw out all the t-shirts I have. I hadn’t realized how many of my t-shirts (probably 95%) are from the high school where I just finished working.

I was a club advisor and a sucker for buying a t-shirt for every event. Not that it’s a bad thing. It worked for me when I was dressing for school spirit Fridays — I had options.

But these once-upon-a-time good options are weighing on me now. I want to wear the pants that I have in the closet that make me look like I care. Unfortunately, I’m still toting around some pretty awesome baby weight in my midsection. And if you’re anything like me, you know that baggy sweats feel a lot better than tight-fitting button pants.

Being a WAHM isn’t helping matters much. When the only co-workers I have are a 1 year old and three 4-legged creatures (wait, I forgot the almost-dead fish), there aren’t many reasons to get all dressed up.

So what am I going to do about it?

For now, I’m going to revel in the cooler days that allow me to wear the baggy pants without looking crazy. Then, I’m going to do a few sit-ups so these other pants won’t leave permanent indentations. Then, I’m probably going to eat a Butterfinger. Because that just makes sense.

Today, I’m linking up with The Extraordinary Ordinary. Check it out!
