Thursday -- Ally

I totally lied about us having a flashback this weekend, huh?? I've had a really busy few days and just haven't had time to post or comment on your blogs. One of my best friends from college came in Sunday night and stayed with us for a couple of days and between that and Mothers' Day and work and everything else, time just slipped right away from me. We'll go way-way back soon. Promise.
Top: JCP

Skirt: NY&Co

Belt: Walmart

Flats: Sam Edelman












Boooooooooooooring! Can you tell I've just not been in the mood to spend time on my outfits? This one has great potential too with fun accessories too. Maybe June will be more inspirational than May?

Did anyone watch LOST? I was SO disappointed in the finale - I was just expecting so much more considering how awesome all the other finales have been. If you've not watched it yet, there may be a spoiler or two in the comments so tread with care (or watch the dang episode already!).

Boring? I think this looks fabulous on you! Like the skinny skirt and the belted shirt a lot. You could always do one of your many pr of colored shoes if you wanted to not feel "boring". But I think it looks great regardless!

Did we watch the same finale??? Juliet blew up the island, Locke is *really* dead, we met Jacob, Ben KILLED Jacob, and Locke is being impersonated by something/one?? I agree that the first 90 minutes (while good storytelling) weren't all that exciting, but the last 15 minutes I was basically screaming HOLY CRAP at the tv!!)

I actually love the outfit, the belt really defines your waist!!

Daniel said...

Jez, don't mind Ally, she's clearly out of her mind :-). I thought the finale was fantastic as well. Now I'm just waiting to see which one of the two people I think was the one in that coffin.

Tina said...

Not boring at all!! Classic is a more appropriate desciption. You look GREAT!

Sara said...

First - love the outfit. Before I read your comments, I was thinking how cute you looked. The belt does a great job of making an hour glass shape and the whole thing just looks polished. Throw on some colorful accessories and you are one hot chica!

Second - I'm with you on the finale. I was unimpressed. This whole season was so fantastic, I was really expecting a lot more out of this finale. Since when did Jack become Mr. Sharpshooter? It seemed like a lot of unnecessary gunfights to me. And all of the flashbacks seemed like a waste of time. I wish they had revealed some new information with the flashbacks instead of just inserting Jacob into stuff we'd basically already seen and/or knew.

Sigh. It's going to be a long eight month wait until next January.

The outfit is great on! However, you know me - I love some accessories! You have so many great ones too - a necklace, a scarf, a something!!

That belt really pulls you from boring to vavoom. Great shaper.

Milly said...

The belt doesnt let it be boring...nice!

KT said...

I'm with Leslie on this one (See Leslie? We may not agree on American Idol but we agree on this one!)you look great!

Louella said...

I see a necklace peeping out of your top! You do need a few more accessories but you don't like to wear a lot of jewelry (you didn't get that from your mother). You look great - classic.

Taylor said...

Very figure-flattering outfit, who cares that it's black and grey?

I hate Kate (Lost). That stupid fight between Jack and Swayer in the woods? Redonkulous. I swear, I'll forget everything by the time the show comes back in eight months!

Legal Editor Mom said...

This outfit is fine and I agree with everyone who said the belt accentuated your waistline. Besides some accessories, I'd have to wear heels with it 'cause I'm so darn short. (I don't even own any flats!!) ;-)

Ally said...

Les - I *almost* whipped out some colored shoes but at the last minute went with the flats.

Jez - I'll agree with you on that. Did you read the Project Rungay guys? They did a great commentary that really summed up how I feel.

Tina - Thanks!!

WML - That's it! I was just so let down and thought it didn't "go" with the rest of the season.

Taylor - OMG I know!! Kate is such a twit and I can't believe Jack is gonna blow up the island for her.

LEM - I just can't wear heels with skirts this short/tight unless I'm wearing flats or very low heels. I just feel too slutty for the office otherwise.

Everyone else, thanks for all your sweet comments - you really made me feel awesome about this "boring" outfit :)

I did love this outfit and I didnt think it was boring, i tend to wear all black a lot! Oh I have a fashion question for you: I am going to a "CLUB" in Rosarito Mexico next month on vacation, it's your tipical spring break kina club, but I dont have a clue what to wear. I am a mom now and the last time I went to a club I was way younger and thinner and um not a mom, I dont want to look slutty but I dont want to look frumpy either, help me! Thanks
