Outfits for Decatur Fashion "Week"


top: Cath's shoes: Jessica Simpson (don't smirk! these are mine and actually quite demure and comfy)
below: Lar's shoes: Bakers

While the lovely models strutted down the runway (i.e. the middle of the courtroom floor at Decatur's Old Courthouse), Cath and I posed in the deteriorating back room (where they store tables, chairs and riff-raf).
For Form .02 (see post below if confused) we wanted to look twin-y without being obnoxious about it. Same American Apparel dress, different colors. It's not a particularly trendy or edgy ensemble (on-saun-blah), but it served its purpose well. Bravo AA! Cheap-ish and flatter-ish (I had to keep remembering to suck in my tummy... soon forgotten after beer #2). What class!

    I just saw this dress in AA the other day and wanted to try it on but was afraid it was too form-fitting for me. I'm more of a loosey-goosey. You, however, look superb in it!
    P.S. I am linking you as I've become rather addicted to your blog!

    Cute outfits again ladies!
    Those Jessica Simpson shoes look comfy. I'm not one to judge. I bought her lip gloss when it first came out. :)

    Tam Pham, you're so sweet! As twins we're all about the matching/not matching outfits.

    Fashion Tidbits, I agree. i've never heard her music, but I love her shoes!

    Thanks Lynn! I agree, maxi dresses are the best summer trend.

    Thanks August! The feeling is mutual :) !

    Stephanie, do you mean the yummy smelling lip gloss? Go you!

    Oh lady e, right before lauren took my photo, she was like, "Suck in your stomach!"

    Both dresses are wonderful, but I particularly love the two-blue one.
