How To Be a Unicorn ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ
/Oh boy, did I love wearing this outfitโโโ
Cute, cozy, and comfortable is all one needs to ease into cooler Fall weather. Who knew a mini skirt and thigh high boots could be so comfyโ
It is such a major ๐ when celebrities on the red carpet preach how they chose their needle embroidered, skintight gown made of fair trade, recycled burlap "because it's was soooo comfortable! And it has pockets!!!" Stars, they're just like us๐. How dumb do they think we are? Um, that's not why your stylist made you wear that, and you're never going to appear down to earth๐. Unless your name is Cate Blanchet; she can do no wrong ๐๐ป.
I swear, this was a joy to put on. Easy building blocks that I'm sure you already own; a miniskirt, cool tights, boots, and a cute sweater. Done and done. Flat boots for day, heeled boots for night. I bought this Aqua sweater while shopping with my daughter. We were at the mall for her. She loves Aqua, so we headed there first. There was a stack of adorable statement sweaters. I think I literally lunged for this unicorn one. The image of a ๐ฆ is a statement unto itself; it's a magical, rare creature that exists in myth. To liken someone to a unicorn is to speak of how unique and rare they are. How to find someone like them is almost impossible. What high praise๐๐ป. How wonderful to own your originality and uniqueness, and to wear it with an all knowing pride. I'm no dummy, I wanted this sweater specifically. I do indeed believe I'm an unusual person. I wouldn't have been drawn to the one with the sad lemming sitting in a corner ( fiction; I was using artistic license ). There was a fierce tiger one, but my daughter wanted that one ๐ฏ, under the condition I could borrow it. Fine. The sacrifices we make for our kids๐.
I love when one of my style posts morphs into something with a message. Those are some of my favorite pieces to write. Oh, and the whimsical, relaxed fit of the sweater prevents you from looking like a hooker. See, everybody wins๐๐ป.
Love you the most, LB
