Are You Lonesome Tonight?

I am not sure where this bookmark came from, but somehow one of the managers, Cliff, received this gem, passed it to Amanda, passed it to Kristin, and it is currently in my possession.

Personal favorite is #1, although #6 is up there too. Maybe I can write a no-brainer book as well to make some extra cash!

What Not to Wear- Office Edition

It's a groggy gray morning when you trudge wearily to the closet, beckoning something, anything, to call to you. How will you decide what to wear?

• Is it a bloated day? Nix the tucked pant and blouse look.
• Have you once again forgotten to shave your legs in the hasty morning shower? Adios skirts and dresses.
• Are your feet sore and tired? In your dreams, strappy heels and cute flats.
• Better yet, are you picking up extra hours, requiring a company-provided costume? Not to worry about looking attractive, as these swoon-worthy ensembles include flood length pants that double for both camel-toe and a tuck in bra, and, oh yes, contain zero sex appeal. Dreams come true!

So how do you know what to wear and what to leave behind while picking that perfect outfit?

To be simple. I have no idea what will make a good outfit. It can be anything. An accessory alone can make or break an ensemble, not to mention what an adorable top can do. I always wanted one of those closet organizers as seen in Clueless, which matches the perfect pieces together, but alas, that invention is stuck in the realm of fiction.

Though I can't say what makes an outfit a success, I can share some tips on what makes an outfit a flop. Here are the top ten examples of (sad but true) fashion faux pas witnessed in the building. Enjoy!

1. Stirrup pants. With an aviator top. And ascot. A real lfe ascot.
2. Red mini-skirt and black patten leather go-go boots.
3. Matching polka dot print dress with perfectly patterned polka dot shoes.
4. White tights. Not opaque or nude colored. White.
5. It's five o'clock somewhere in a short sateen nightclub dress and knee high boots.
6. Crocs. It does not matter what kind, whether ballet flat, original, or the boot style. They are still, and always will be, ugly shoes.
7. It's not easy being green, especially with a lime green twin set and olive green knit pant combo.
8. Flannel shirts-- great for camping, not for the workplace.
9. Feathered hair. What happened in the eighties needs to stay in the eighties.
10. Striped skirts mixed with dotted and bright shirts.

Save a Horse

*Bonus guest look: Cowboy hat, Ed Hardy tee and boots with real spurs at the Magic Kingdom. On a day that was not at the Halloween Party. My heart breaks at not getting this stud's number*

Hopefully this will help with things to keep in mind your next bleary eyed morning.

What looks have you seen that should be added to an "OH NO!" list of outfits?
