My fantasy outfit courtesy ROG

Rambling Ann

Anyone else get something amazing that absolutely does not fit their real life? I would love to be able to justify this outfit (except it would bug me that the zippers on the bag don't match the shoes.)

How do you spend your time, Ann? Doing more rugged things than these clothes would suggest? I was just thinking... maybe you could substitute with silver sneaks or something...

Fun! Maybe you can find a pair of gold metallic pumps.

Rachylou - 80-90% - think what you would wear to a national park where you are going to hiking. 10-20% can be anything from classroom teaching to museum hopping in Chicago to a fancy dinner in Paris. It's my 10-20% life that goes into finds that drives ROG, one where this is no manure. That part of my life is what brought me to YLB because I'm not very good at dressing for it, but I have to be careful not to over-purchase because it's all so beautiful. I have a nice social life here, but park lodge casual and practical is the norm. There is no place here where you would wear Tevas and feel under-dressed except maybe church, and for 2 out of 3 that would be fine too.

Then again, I did get to milk a friend's goat this weekend and made cheese with the milk I brought home. I can have it all, just not at once

I have to confess I wear Marc Jacobs at the bakery... and use my grandma's monogrammed silver to stir Lilypup's dog food, which freaks out my neighbor, because dogs are marime. It started very young. There's this rock where climbers go to practice. When I was 5, I'd be out there in my party dress and patent shoes passing them by, up the rock. Lol. Maybe it was the bad influence of June Cleaver vacuuming in her pearls. So... I'd milk a goat in a $200 sweatshirt. It *is* a sweatshirt and thus would actually constitute an improvement in comportment for me... Ha!
