DISHWASHERS ARE SEXY

2-9-10 1

You're right.  They're totally not (especially dirty ones - better go take care of that).  When I went to take my pictures, it was snowing outside.  So, I had no choice.

Yes, I wore these shorts yesterday.  No worries, though - different tights.

And I'm sporting a pair of my new brogues.  Since cleaning out my heels (thank you all so much for your incredibly awesome responses to my previous post), I have lots of space for new shoes.  Soooo, I decided to keep both the Target brogues, as well as the Steve Madden ones.  These work better with tights and socks for winter.  And they have a very rubbery sole, so they're good for all the slippery nonsense we've been getting this week.  I'm completely in love with them!

I really had no idea what I wanted to wear today, except that I wanted to wear my new shoes.  I just wasn't feeling a skirt, so shorts it was.  Topped off with John's cardigan, it doesn't get much comfier than this.  I knew I liked this look, but after seeing the pictures, I think I fell in love with it.

They're calling for more snow tonight.  Seriously?  Is it June, yet?

    Aren't these shoes great? I have a feeling I'm going to be wearing them through the sole.

    I just love this snuggy cardigan, glasses, shorts & brogues look.

    Wanna swap climates?

    Is that your peekapoo?! I have one that looks exactly like it. I have pics on my blog of little Ollie. They are the same color. Love the assymetrical sweater!

    I find this look very nice, very different from all the others that you do, and the final result is a big Yes. The colors, the pieces, all is perfect.

    I love love love those shoes on you Kyla!
    I found a pair when in the city last week but they were $90.00 and I just couldn't justify it yet. Should have tried them on so I could find them cheaper online in the right price though. Oh well.
    You look so nerdy cool here, does that make sense?
    You are rockin it!

    the cardi looks super cute on you and nice and cosy! And shorts and stockings are always a good combo. nothing wrong with dishwashers, they may not be sexy, but they are super useful.

    And yes, dishwashers are sexy, especially when you don't have one yourself. I have to hand wash everything so this is the sexiest post you have ever done~
