SUPER CASZ

1-15-10 1

Well, I've finally jumped on the tights+jean shorts bandwagon. And it's kind of fun.

You all know my thoughts on my legs and shorts, etc., but I'm really comfortable in this.  It's cute and cozy, and even a little sexy to boot (I LOVE a man's shirt!).

If I look a little bloated here - it's because I just cleaned up at an Indian buffet.  Holy goodness - I love that stuff.  I'm a super big fan of the little dough balls in sugar syrup - (though I'm sure they have an actual name, I just don't know what it is) - they're like little pieces of heaven.  If heaven was a dough ball.

I'm not sure why I haven't done the jorts and tights combo before, but I'm pretty sure it had to do with the fact that I had to go dig out my summer clothes in order to do it.  No fun.  Especially when your basment is FREEZING!  I feel like I rarely even do laundry in the winter, because it's so cold.  Yeah, I stink.

But, really, who needs to do laundry when you can just steal your husband's clothes?

  3. Way cute! I just bought a romper (finally) and am a little apprehensive about wearing shorts... I haven't worn shorts in public since... oh gosh... 1997. LOL But I plan to pair them with rights and flats or boots and I'm looking forward to playing around with it.

  4. I'm not sure if my husband would get mad or think it's hot. I bought a men's plaid shirt while he was buying himself some...that worked out well.
    Not sure if there is anything in there I would want...besides dying to try some jeans. Oh well...you look hot though...your legs are fab lady!

  7. The shorts look great on you, you shouldn't be self conscious about wearing them!

  9. Love the outfit!

    By the way, those little "dough balls" that you ate aren't actually dough at all - they're paneer, which is cheese. And they're DELICIOUS.

  11. I hate my bare legs in shorts of any kind but for some reason when I throw tights on underneath its totally acceptable...and I love the look. Looks fantastic on you and I'm glad you decided to take the plunge on it!

  16. Kyla, I just love this! I'm totally inspired now to snag one of Joe's shirts and belt it like that. So cute and perfectly casz!

  17. I second your thoughts on

    1: shorts- my bod and shorts generally just don't go together
    2: the tights and shorts combo: I like my leg w shorts so much better when there are tights underneath! (underneath the shorts, not my legs...obviously)
    3: galub jamun: YUM! I'm also a big fan of malai kofta. Basically, any globe of Indian yumminess floating around in more Indian yumminess gets my approval.

    Glad to see you rocking the shorts and tights. It's inspiring! And good call on the husband's shirt- it really works!

  19. oh man...you look so cute! and so many people are pulling this look off sooooo well that it's tempting me...but i can't get over the fact that i wore cut-offs and tights in, like, 7th grade, so i'm pretty sure i dare not try it again!!! ;)
