Trendy Rogue

Stopped at H&M on my way to the alumni board meeting last night. Don't know what drew me in there as it's usually too trendy for me, but I think it must have been the siren call of my new $35 gray denim jacket. Metal buttons, nipped at the waist. Love it. Just putting it on makes me feel more urban, more edgy. Paired with my Sevens and nifty Diesel sunglasses, I feel quite hip! Additionally, even though the jacket is clearly outside my fashion comfort zone, I know it works because it passed The Test. Every morning, I cross the street to get to the bus stop. In doing so, I pass a construction site. The construction guys are too polite to whistle or hoot, which is much appreciated. But they still look, and if they approve, one of the guys will walk out into the street and stop traffic to let me pass. It's a good test. If the construction guys don't approve, then it could add five minutes to my commute time.

Man, this jacket is inspiring all sorts of great ideas. I think I'm going to order one of those personalized necklaces that spell your name in script. But...I think I'm going to have it say "Rogue." Luck of luck, it's fate. Limonges has a 10% off coupon code good through the end of August: AFC805

Yoink!
