Skippy Says: This Is The Remix Edition: Part 2 (OOTD)

See part 1 here!

Today, pretty yellow blouse meets slightly-too-tight-man-I-really-should-not-have-skipped-the-gym-today white jeans. Ryan has proclaimed this to be his favorite outfit I've ever worn on the blog. Notice it's also probably the most boring simple. Which is why I've learned not to take offense when he turns his nose up at 90% of what I wear. My style is clearly just way too cool for him to comprehend.

Skippy Says: Honey, I'm Home (OOTD)

Well, our little mini vacation is over and, as of yesterday, I'm back to the daily grind. Of course when my daily grind is being a nanny which involves playing with a cute little baby all day, it's much more fun and pleasant than grind-y.

Thank you all for your understanding about my little brain fart. Many of you left very sweet comments, saying that you couldn't wait to see my outfits when I got back. Only one little problem with that. Since we spent our days hiking, reading, and watching T.V., my outfits pretty much consisted of sweatpants and pajamas. And as enticing as I know that sounds, I didn't snap too many photos. I did put on some respectable looking clothes a few times though, since even our pup started looking embarrassed to be seen with me.

Skippy Says: Conditions Are Perfect (OOTD)

Tomorrow night Ryan and I are headed to Tahoe for the long weekend. An extra long weekend actually, since we're also taking Friday and Tuesday off work. A lot of people have complained about the lack of snow in Tahoe this year, but I have to admit I don't mind too much. You see, the extent of my involvement in snow sports is lifting a cup of hot cocoa to my mouth as I sit in the lodge reading a book. So this lack of snow? It's workin' for me.

Skippy Says: Give Up Already (OOTD)

Am I a bad person for wanting people to start breaking their New year's resolutions already? That's a rhetorical question. It's just that the gym has been so crowded this week, and the girl in front of me in class almost punched me in the face with her dumbbell as we were doing shoulder raises. Plus, the line for the shower after class was so long that I seriously considered skipping it all together. What? You can't smell photos. And other than that, I have no shame.

Skippy Says: My Weakness (OOTD)

Have you guys ever tried Costco pizza? I swear it's amazing. Don't judge. Yes, it thick and greasy and probably way too cheesy for anyone's good, but man I hold a soft spot in my heart for that pizza. Let's not talk about the soft belly it's giving me, ok? Yesterday, Ryan and I decided to spend part of our day off by going to Target. Because, you know, we're wild like that. And there just happened to be a Costco next door, and it just happened to be right around lunch time, and...I sort of blacked out after that. All I know is that there was a lot of delicious pizza eating involved. Since we were already there, we decided to pick up some paper towels as well. On our way out, the guy at the door raised his eyebrow and asked: "you came in all the way here just for that?" And then I had to hang my head in shame and admit that no, we actually came in for the pizza. And then Ryan said I probably shouldn't admit that to people. And there I go again. Ooops.

Skippy Says: Diamond In The Rough (OOTD)

You guys want to know something exciting? These photos were taken on the block that we'll be moving to...someday...when the remodeling and construction on the house we bought is finally done. You know, after it finally starts. In fact, you see that sort of dilapidated looking blue house at the end of the row of beautiful houses? That's my ugly duckling, so quit badmouthing it. And while I'm waiting with baited breath for everything to finish start, I'll continue trespassing on other people's beautiful houses for my outfit shots. Because that's how I roll.

Skippy Says: So A Dyslexic Man Walks Into A Bra...(OOTD)

Ok, so, while it may be kind of kitschy to wear an umbrella printed dress in the rain, sometimes a girl has to give in to her inner kitsch. Amiright? And kitsch tends to be a weakness of mine. Right up there along with stupid puns. I'm sorry, but I love stupid puns. Two antennas met on a roof, fell in love and got married. The ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was awesome! Eh? Eh? I wonder how many followers I'll lose with that one...

Skippy Says: If At First You Don't Succeed (OOTD)

Since I got such a positive response on the last outfit Ryan hated, I figured why not continue with the trend and post another? You guys, he really hated this one. So much so, in fact, that I had to twist his arm to photograph me in it. And by twist his arm I mean give him a noogie and wear it on three separate days, threatening that I'd keep wearing it around him until he gave in. Apparently all the pieces are nice individually, but don't go together. Little did I know, ladies. Little did I know.
