Dress Your Best Week - Day Two (legs)
Day Two was legs. I used to think that as a short girl (5' 3") I couldn't have nice legs, but after numerous compliments on them the past couple years and being more comfortable in heels (which really do make your legs look better) I realized that I do, in fact, have nice legs (I'm sure the running habit, frisbee games, strength training, and yoga don't hurt). Today I debated between skinny jeans and a skirt or dress, but since I was going to be working at the office I thought heels and a dress was more appropriate than heels and jeans so I went with this.
BUT, I biked in to the gym at 7 AM in a downpour and got really sick around 4 PM, so it was a long day. Luckily, I recovered after lying down for a bit and grabbing dinner with Nick and was able to enjoy some pitchers of beer at the Dane with teammates (frisbee was canceled due to the rain :( )
So this picture was when I got home, but pre-bath time, Calvin decided to help:
Yes, I did plan on biking home in this dress - I am wearing bike shorts underneath - but since Nick and I walked halfway up State st. anyway, I decided to leave my bike at the gym. The only thing I don't bike in is long flowy skirts.
Dress: Thrift Store
Shoes: Thrift Store
Necklace:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
alineskirt
Watch: Tokyo Bay from Pop Deluxe
Ring: Art Gecko - the first post-wedding band ring I bought, so it holds a special place in my heart
I don't think this is necessarily the best outfit for showing off my legs (in fact several people asked me if I was going on a date based on the cleavage I was showing), but my miniskirts were a bit too short for work attire :)
Which of course, led me to go look at some Facebook pics...
Previously mentioned length of sequined dress:
Which looks great with my silver strappy heeled sandals:
I've been known to go through a fishnet phase...
And even leggings:
Who can forget Mrs. Robinson:
And the always popular, schoolgirl...
Going through all of those, I realize that I treat showing off my legs as "for fun" - I wonder what it would be like to treat it differently...
Tomorrow: Eyes!
