    1) Describe a piece of clothing in your closet you bought, but never wore. Why did you buy it in the first place? Skinny jeans- I needed another pair of jeans so I bought them, but my calves are too big for skinny jeans (Im a runner and mountain biker).
    I have large calves too... I usually wear my skinny jeans with boots :) love them. 

    it took me awhile to just accept and like how I look in skinny jeans. AE just came out with 'skinny kick' that are form fitting like skinny jeans, are a bit stretchy, but flare out a bit at the ankle. I love the look SO MUCH MORE than the regular skinnies.

    yep! it's kind of like a boot leg, I think, without having the rest of the leg being wider.  They also have a 'kick boot' that looks more like a straight leg to me... and has a little narrower flare to it.

  • 1.  I bought this skin tight dress from the Nieman Marcus outlet and never wore it.  I don't think DH would even left me out of the house wearing it.  Why did I buy it?  I have no idea.  I think that it was because I was getting a "good deal" by buying it.  I think it was originally $200+ and I bought it for $30.

    2.  I had coffee for breakfast.

    3. Anytime.

  • 1) Describe a piece of clothing in your closet you bought, but never wore. Why did you buy it in the first place? A yellow sundress. I never wear dresses and wanted to like them. Every time I put it on, I feel ridiculous.

    2) What did you have for breakfast? A turkey & hummus sandwich

    3) It's Hump Day - Morning, Night, or all the time? Ain't nobody got time for that

    I write sexy books. I read all the books. I love dresses & macarons.

  • 1) Describe a piece of clothing in your closet you bought, but never wore. Why did you buy it in the first place? I've got this pink hi-low dress.  It looked super cute on the rack, and it was like 7 bucks at Ross. It was in the closet for a few months just because I never really had anywhere to wear it. But then last week I brought it out to wear, tried it on, and it looked horrible. It's super cute hanging up, but it just hits me in all the wrong places.  It's just not cut right or something. (Probably why it was at Ross). I usually try things on, but I was in a rush. And now it's too late to return it. So there it continues to hang.

    2) What did you have for breakfast? I didn't eat breakfast this morning. Oops.

    3) It's Hump Day - Night. Pretty much always. But preferably before 11:00. :)

  • 1) Describe a piece of clothing in your closet you bought, but never wore. Why did you buy it in the first place? Skinny jeans. I didn't know they were skinny jeans when I bought them, they were hanging on the same rack as the normal jeans I always buy- reached for my size and paid without trying on. Got home, realized they were skinny jeans, died laughing, and never wore them.

    2) What did you have for breakfast?
    Baked oatmeal. Noms.

    3) It's Hump Day - Morning, Night, or all the time? Anytime the kids are both asleep. With a newborn, that's rare.

    Are you being serious about your H not letting you out of the house in that dress? Just an honest question.

    1) Describe a piece of clothing in your closet you bought, but never wore. Why did you buy it in the first place? A Banana Republic silk shirt with cap sleeves and pretty ruffles on the front and a peplum waist.  I've not worn it because it's too sheer and I'm too fat right now, and I bought it because it was clearanced and a really good deal at the outlet.

    2) What did you have for breakfast? Oatmeal and coffee.  It's my standard work day breakfast

    3) It's Hump Day - Morning, Night, or all the time? :-$

    1) Describe a piece of clothing in your closet you bought, but never wore. Why did you buy it in the first place?  I have a navy skirt suit with brownish gold trim that I have never worn.  I bought it to wear to Back to School Night and/or Open House my first year of teaching (7 years ago and pre-baby) but I could never find the right color shirt to wear under it.  So it hangs in the closet, tags still attached.  Probably doesn't fit anymore.. I should put it in the next Goodwill dropoff.

    2) What did you have for breakfast?  Raspberry yogurt with chopped strawberries and raspberries and a bowl of honeydew melon.  And coffee.  Always coffee.

    3) It's Hump Day - Morning, Night, or all the time?  Night, mostly.

    Can you belt it with a wide belt?  That's my usual fix for that sort of pooch.  Also, you mean lose, not loose.  :)>-
