I'm sorry it's been about...150 years since I've posted anything here, but I just had to say something I'm overwhelmed with joy about. CAN WE PLEASE TALK ABOUT THE AMERICAN APPAREL PETTICOAT?! I'm pretty sure this is the greatest piece of material ever sewn together and mass produced. It's absolutely genius. I stopped in American Apparel today after the Titans game. I picked up my New Year's dress...the sweetheart two toned mini dress in black, a wonderful piece as well. As I walked down the aisle, I felt the ruffles on my arm. I looked, and there it was, in all it's glory. I have been contemplating this purchase for quite sometime, asking questions like
"Am I actually going to where this thing?"
"How can I justify spending $74 on a fluffy skirt?"
Mainly the last one...
I stared at it, for quite a while, debating with myself. I have college to save for, but clothes and fashion are important to me. I swallowed my doubts and took the plunge. I got home and immediately threw it on with just about everything that I own. Now I'm asking myself "Is there anything I can't wear this with?" I'm thinking the answer is no. The possibilities are endless. Crop tops, tank tops, band tees, blazers, jackets, coats, sweaters, over dresses, under dresses, lace, leather, pleather, suede, rayon, tight, flowy, heels, booties, wedges, Jeffrey Campbell, Forever21, fall, summer, winter, spring...etc. I'm telling you, it's endless. I recommend every single female run out and spend $74 on the greatest/most versatile thing to ever be hung in your closet.
