I found this purse the other day I was all “I love it!” and Girlfriend was like “don’t buy it mommy. It’s too stupid. I want to go home!”
This worried me a little as usually she is quite the little fashionista and has very good taste, except for all the stuff with Hello Kitty and Elmo on it, but whatever. Everyone has their weaknesses.
She loves these shoes, for example
and she will not take them off, not even to sleep. It’s kind of cute actually, but you see what I’m saying don’t you Internet? Her taste isn’t exactly without it’s hint of the flamboyant and the colorful.
So I bought the bag despite her protest and showed it to Mister when he got home. He looked at it and said “it’s blue.” That’s all he said. Not “that’s nice!” or “wow! Can I borrow that?” Nothing. So I’m guessing everyone hates my new bag, but I love it. It makes me feel Very Fancy and I can shoplift at the grocery store all the live long day fit all the essentials inside it because it is HUGE.
I used it all weekend.
You’re jealous as hell, aren’t you?
Right?
RIGHT???
Maybe I’ll let you borrow it sometime.

I think what Girlfriend meant was, “It’s stupid unless you wear it with these kickin’ pink crocs.” However, I think this is one time I will have to disagree with Girlfriend. The purse is awesome. So are all the sundresses. Can I come raid your closet?
July 14th, 2008 at 6:25 am
I agree with Dingo - I would a) kill for the sundresses out of your closet and b) steal the bag from you if given the opportunity.
The blue is TOTALLY in this season, and if I weren’t as big as a house, I would totally rock it as well.

The purse is great–and I think Ken was just surprised that it wasn’t purple.
As for Girlfriend–my daughter thinks that I should be wearing Dorothy shoes and other ghetto sparkly Baby Phat clothing whenever we shop–so I might suggest that while she may have moments of brilliance, this is why you are to lead the way for her and show her that she’s wrong.
Most shockingly, I can’t even believe that you let her wear those shoes.
And I love pic #4.

Ooh I dig the new purse! If I weren’t verging on midget-size and could pull off a big bag I would totally try to rock that!
July 14th, 2008 at 8:25 am
it’s true… i don’t get excited about purses.
you don’t get excited about air compressors, electric guitars, SLR camera lenses, or epoxy (just to name a few things) but i don’t hold that against you.
now if you came strolling in from shopping with a nice internal frame hiking backpack, that’d be another story.
my metrosexuality only goes so far.
July 14th, 2008 at 8:26 am
OMG I love it! And love the color!
I think the Mister is just jealous he didn’t buy it first.
July 14th, 2008 at 8:44 am
Hey, I have a kinda huge green purse. Maybe I should throw on my blue dress and take pictures all over the house. Then we can be opposites. And besties at school. Until you tell me you hate me. And I go to the corner and cry.
July 14th, 2008 at 9:20 am
Girlfriend only thought it was stupid because she wasn’t getting one too. That’s how I react to people that have things I don’t have;
“Your car/house/diamond/hot Latino gardener is stupid”
July 14th, 2008 at 9:22 am
I’m going to push Girlfriend down and steal her kickin’ shoes.
July 14th, 2008 at 9:23 am
Huge purses rule. Really.
I’m sorry, that’s all I have. I was out partying with KK and four other hot women. But you know what, the night wasn’t complete because you weren’t there.
July 14th, 2008 at 9:31 am
It’s shiny….
July 14th, 2008 at 10:04 am
I am a flawed woman. I do not get excited about purses. There - I said it! I do like it though, it’s a prettiful blue color.
July 14th, 2008 at 10:09 am
I like it! I hope you didn’t use it to wipe yourself after that last picture though, because that might ruin it.
July 14th, 2008 at 10:44 am
Dingo- Anytime girlfriend! Come on over!
Leah- Just wait. I used to be a small purse girl too…and then baby!
Rach- I knew you’d like it. You’re always in the bag. I mean into bags. INTO.
Stealthnerd- It never stopped the Olson twins.
Neth- I wish you’d just admit that you want to borrow it.
Marie- I love the color too. I have nothing that matches it, but fuck it.
Nilsa- I would never hate you!!!!
Rachel M- I do the same thing only I say “your car/house/diamond/hot Latino gardner is so last season.”
Ben-That’s the only way you’ll get them off of her–pry them from her cold dead feet.
Melissa- You can fit a ton of extra underpants in huge purses. I’m sorry I wasn’t there to party…boo.
Matt- Yes.
Lynne- I’m sorry. We can’t be friends anymore.
Chris- THANK YOU! Fianlly, somebody acknowledges that I’m sitting on the toilet!!! What’s wrong with everybody?
July 14th, 2008 at 11:23 am
you are now tagged and mentioned on the ballet post…go and see
do it do it do it do it!!!
July 14th, 2008 at 11:24 am
I thought it was pretty obvious you were sitting on a toilet. Don’t think it needed to be pointed out.
Why do men always have to say, “Its nice” when women show us stuff? I think feigned indifference is the way to go.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:25 am
love love love the toilet pic. hilarious!! classic even.
and the purse? GREAT color!
i have a purse obsession, it’s bad. no one needs to buy uber designer bags on my salary.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:44 am
I noticed that you were sitting on the toilet but I thought it was Chocolate Raspberry Cookies Part II and I didn’t want to jump ahead of your posting about that.
July 14th, 2008 at 12:14 pm
You never cease to make me question your sanity. A trait I respect.
July 14th, 2008 at 12:24 pm
It’s blue.
So, do you have any air compressors, electric guitars, SLR camera lenses, epoxy or internal frame hiking backpacks?
All your pics are very sexy. Pic number 5 is totally art. And you should put that last pic on a t-shirt. It fucking rocks.
July 14th, 2008 at 12:44 pm
I meant to say that pic #5 is my favorite.
Dammit I can’t count in the morning.
July 14th, 2008 at 1:42 pm
Rachel M- I fucked it up didn’t I?
rs27- You’re single. Think about it.
Alexa- I have a thing for them too. It’s a sickness.
Dingo- You’re so thoughtful!
Jim- I’m so glad you still respect me.
Stoogpie- Maybe I’ll have a contest and put that picture on a tee shirt as the big prize…
Rach- I’m all downsy today too.
July 14th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
LOVE the bag. There is nothing better than a big colorful bag - don’t listen to anybody! I have a big yellow one and my dad always likes to ask why I felt the need to carry a suitcase around with me. Men - they just don’t understand fashion.
July 14th, 2008 at 2:05 pm
I fucking LOVE that bag. Where from? Is that the Forever 34 bag?
That dress is so great. I can’t wait until payday. I’m going to go buy everything you’re wearing and make Dane take pictures of me on the toilet.
Is that….that sounded creepy, didn’t it?
July 14th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
I love it! I love the color especially. And your green dress is fantastic!
July 14th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
i am waiting impatiently for pictures of kiala on the toilet.
July 14th, 2008 at 2:36 pm
OMG Wicked pretty purse. Loved the pix on the toilet. That’s a keeper.
July 14th, 2008 at 4:24 pm
Did you stage that toilet shot? Or did he really catch you on the pot? My big purse is Denim and looks like it might previously been the seat of someone’s pants so I’m with ya on the big purse issue, people just don’t understand.
July 14th, 2008 at 8:55 pm
I love it…love it….LLLOOOVVEEEEIIIITTTT (she sings in an opera voice) when you come visit me in Missouri, I’ll borrow it then. Okay? You can borrow my Kohl’s one.
July 14th, 2008 at 9:12 pm
I love it, it suits you perfectly. I especially love the blue & green combo. I have to admit though, it takes one hell of a bag to get me excited about it. I mean really, I’m sporting a army-navy surplus store medic bag with all kinds of pockets to hide cell phone, zune, flask of single malt scotch, lighter etc…. I’m prepared…..
July 15th, 2008 at 5:32 am
megkathleen- No. Men don’t get it. My dad would say the same thing.
Kiala- Not creepy at all. I’d love to see my dark haired twin peeing in my dress and bag. Also, it came from TJ MAXX. I don’t know if you have one near you.
Lauren-The color is what got my attention too.
Neth- You might be waiting a long time.
Mom- I’ll have it blown up and framed for you.
Denise- Staged for comedy.
Shelly- You are the purse expert so an endorsement from you is worth a lot!
Kendra- Potato gun, flask of scotch…you are my favorite.
July 15th, 2008 at 9:48 am
Oh, Jeff wanted me to correct myself. It apparetnly is not a potato GUN, it’s a potato CANNON. I will have a picture for you. And, as far as the blowtorch thing. I have just what you need sistah!
July 15th, 2008 at 10:50 am
Kendra/Jeff- Well excuse us! Potato CANNON.
July 15th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Maybe not so much on the purse but I’d totally wear those pink car shoes. LOVE ‘em!
July 18th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
The pose in the car looks vaguely Britney Spearsish. And you seem to have the papparazzi!
