CHUCK DAY

3-3-10 1

When I was in eighth grade, I had a teacher who called days like today "Chuck Day."  Apparently, one of her former students (named Chuck, of course) could never remember if the month or the day came first when writing the date.  On a day like today, he didn't have to worry about - 3/3/10.  So, every month, when the day and the month had the same number, she would proclaim it "Chuck Day."

Again, more pictures after work!  We're getting there!

The only downfall is that I had an exhausting day, so I'm not feeling quite as cute as I did this morning.  Of course, now I'm in my flannel and giant lounge pants.  Just the way I like it!

    Cute story -- I can see how he'd be confused, because it's different depending on where you live (America: month/day, much of Europe: day/month).

    On another note, love your high-waisted look. You look so chic!

    haha! "Chuck day". Before your picture downloaded on my screen I was thinking your title meant you were wearing chuck sneakers. It threw me back for a second! Yay for "Chuck Day"!

    that chuck day story is awesome--i love how things from early school days stick with you.
    and you look lovely in this--even though the pants and top are loose, they make you look teeny tiny.

    That is such a cute story. I've always though you guys over there write the date the wrong way round. It should be dd/mm/yy! Hahaha!
    I love your hair in the side braid, it looks so pretty, and the scarf looks so cute.

    I love Chuck Day! Definitely remembering that one :)

    And I love this look. The neckerchief is the perfect addition and dresses up the whole look. Isn't it nuts how just a little adjustment affects an entire outfit? Love it.
