9 things I learned from today

Thursday, October 14

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket
 Shoes: Michael Kors, Pants: F21, Shirt: Old Navy, Wrap: Gap, Belt: Thrifted
1. I am an idiot for thinking I could wear these shoes today.
2. I'm really good at writing funny, short stories to share just with husband.
3. Dropping your phone 5 times in one day is not acceptable. 
4. Husband hates celery. And will NOT eat it no matter how guilty I make him feel for not finishing the divine meal I prepared for him. {divine = not burned}
5. Cross-walks mean nothing to some people.
6. I need to officially hold husband captive this weekend so he will stop. working. I hate it when nobody wants to play with me.
7. I crave macaroni and cheese for every meal.
8. That, and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. My pallet is continually becoming less refined by the day.
9. My subconscious thinks Taylor Swift is my best friend. We're going on two dreams and counting.

YOU GUYS! It's Friday in 4 hours!! wahooooo

to reciprocate from yesterday--is that sweater still at the gap?? i kind of luurve and need it.
and yes, that necklace is definitely a recent acquisition from forever 21. you can't go wrong at $8, even if it will fall apart in a month :)

October 14, 2010 8:17 PM

Super cute! The sweater makes it cozy! Also, peanut butter and jelly is the best.

Also, I love your blog design and *may* have copied you menu, little bit. Okay, totally. :)

You look SMOKIN' HOT!! I can't get enough of those pants (either ;)

The second photo is my fave and those shoes are fab.

Your shoes are fab! I've been dying for some great nudie/pale pumps.

October 14, 2010 8:48 PM

Could you just stop already with the always-looking-effortlessly-chic? Seriously, another great look.
Also, I have the highest standards for grammar and punctuation and your blog never disappoints there either.
Sydney (again) FTW!

i wore nude sky high heels today.. and tried climbing grated stairs... are you kidding me?

and i totally know how you feel about husbands working and no one to play with.. although i've got my kids, i need adult conversation here and there.

p.s. i saw that you know rachel holdaway.. seriously love that girl (she's in my ward)

October 14, 2010 9:05 PM

whoa lady, those pants and shoes make your legs look forever long. go you! i die at church with my high heels on, and that is for 3 hours...in which i'm sitting down the whole time.


love the blog.

October 14, 2010 9:12 PM

Loving your chunky sweater and long legs! Goodness girl. I totally have peanut butter and jelly for lunch everyday! haha

October 14, 2010 9:16 PM

Talk about model shots. You should do a post about posing. You just always look effortless. Your toes looks extremely pointed in one of the pictures, were you a dancer? just curious!!

OMG PEDESTRIANS ARE THE WORSSSSST IN THIS TOWN! they have their ipods on, they're texting, and they step into the road without even LOOKING. sometimes i'm tempted to give them a little tap just to scare the poo out of them. geesh.

October 14, 2010 9:45 PM

I could never handle wearing heels that high for longer than a church session (and only because we're mostly sitting down). You look so cute!

October 14, 2010 11:58 PM

October 15, 2010 12:43 AM

Those shoes are just gorgeous! I personally would break a leg in them but you completely pull them off.
Have a great weekend!

October 15, 2010 2:35 AM

just discovered your blog via What Would A Nerd Wear...so glad I did. This post cracked me up.

October 15, 2010 4:15 AM

You look gorgeous! I absolutely understand the shoes part though! I kid myself that i can wear them and then regret it harshly! And I crave macaroni and cheese every single minute of the day!

October 15, 2010 6:31 AM

HILARIOUS! i can relate to 1-8... can't wait for your blog du jour on monday! thanks again! :)

October 15, 2010 7:11 AM

Hi Sydney! I stumbled upon your blog the other day. I love it!!! Your pictures are gorgeous and your writing is so friendly and fun. :) I almost bought a pair of heels just like that yesterday, but I decided not to - now I'm a little sad I didn't. :)

Can't wait to read more!

October 15, 2010 7:47 AM

Sydney, did I ever tell you I think we are so meant to be friends?! I mean I could write ten pages to show evidence of this. lol

But for now I will just say 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 and 9 also apply to me :)

October 15, 2010 8:07 AM

you are BEAUTIFUL.
that is all :) have a great weekend friend.

October 15, 2010 9:32 AM

Those shoes may hurt your feet, but they look killer on you. They have done some amazing things to your legs! Also, I am in love with the way you belted this sweater. I have a few similar style sweaters and I'm eager to get home and give belting them a try!

October 15, 2010 12:42 PM

I thought you should know, I discovered your blog today, and then proceeded to read back through to April, at which point I decided that I was bordering on stalking and decided to stop...

Love the blog, keep up the good work!

October 15, 2010 12:48 PM

I crave tuna helper for every meal and know exactly what you mean. Great list.

October 15, 2010 1:11 PM

Ok, I LOVE LOVE your style...which means I really love your blog. And therefore I'm glad I found it :-D
Your pictures look like they are meant to be in a fashion magazine.

p.s. Love the list!

October 15, 2010 1:11 PM

i have a confession...
i am one of those people who doesn't care about crosswalks... but don't blame me. it comes from living in south korea for 2 years. they're like a whole nation of crosswalk ignorers. blame them.
second confession...
you're so stinking adorable. i love all your clothesand your cute little pictures. wanna trade wardrobes, por favor???

October 15, 2010 1:32 PM

October 15, 2010 3:37 PM

Love this outfit! Give you props for wearing those heels! They're lovely!:) Just found ur blog today and I'm loving it! #5 is so true lol Have a great weekend!

October 15, 2010 4:17 PM

Just found your blog because you asked Kendi a question on formspring and I think I slightly stalk her. (stalk = slightly overstated and I stalk lots of blogs nowadays)

But anyway I love this. I love your 9 things. Time to spend my evening reading your archives.

All day on my 9/80 day off = reading blogs day. I'm so glad I discovered this one.
Also I like how you "tied" your belt or whatever you want to call it.

(I think i'm sounding crazy. Perhaps spending all day reading blogs isn't such a good idea.)

You look amazing in those pants and crazy heels! I'd wear them everyday if I could, but I'd break my ankle!

CLOTHED MUCH, a modest fashion blog

1. you are a babe for wearing those shoes today.

2. funny short stories are gems.

3. dropping your phone 9 times in a day, however, is quite acceptable. its my record.

4. i hate celery too! its the one food i will not eat. i thought i was alone.

5. i feel you. some people need to go to Jaywalkers Anonymous.

6. thats just cute.

7. my appreciation for mac & cheese has gone down due to the fact that its aroma greets me on a daily basis. i'm a college student, dorming. so go figure.

8. pb & j is my homesickness food. its a cure. it should be prescribed. {wouldnt i make a great doctor?}

9. since i have long blonde hair & play guitar, people call me m-swift sometimes. im determined to be her when i grow up.

im sure this comment wasted too much of your day - but maybe it'll help you get to friday faster? i hope so. :)

October 15, 2010 7:39 PM

Hahhahaa I love this Tayswift is my bff too! Gorgeous! xoxo Camille
p.s. I hope the bottom of your MKs are ok!
