She maketh me want flares something awful. What?
A: She makes me want to be her best friend! I don't know about flares, but I think Man Repeller would be awesome to hang out with. She'd have me wearing harem pants in about half an hour.
M: I mean, I don't like flares really. And yet, I see them on her, and I want them. I want that whole damn outfit, especially the shoes.
But mostly I want to be her friend, yes. I want to drink Bad Idea cocktails and do each other's makeup and make fun of people.
A: I just want to try on all her crazy shoes. Like THESE:

"My little pony goes drag" might be the best description of anything ever. EVER.
M: For real. You'd be in harem pants and I'd be in a unitard and studded collar and we would be so HAPPY.
A: We would! I think it would be refreshing. And no man on earth would come anywhere near us, which I think is the point.
M: Can I talk about her hair without being creepy(er)? Because I've never colored my hair and I always thought ombre was a little hipster fashiony for me, but now I WANT.
A: It's not a look for mere mortals, Marianne.
M: I know, I'm always wanting to chop my hair like French Girls:
or go all crazy ombre, but Adrien, I live in Tennessee. Colored tights and mixing black and brown are edgy.
A: I think you could totally pull off that haircut! But ombre is best left to the professionals. I am kind of of relieved to live in a place where trends are slow to catch on and slow to die. It gives one's wardrobe longevity (especially if all one wears is breton stripes and animal print.)
M: If I cut my hair I'll do nothing but bitch about it for the year it takes to grow back out. I am a hopeless case.
And I mostly like that, but sometimes people give me the side-eye and I'm all MUSTARD TIGHTS ARE NOT WEIRD OMG. Ahem. Sorry about that.
A: Those people are stupid. And OH MY GOD DO NOT CUT YOUR HAIR. You will steal my "I hate my hair" thunder.
M: I am getting a haircut tomorrow, but it's guaranteed to look pretty much the same as ever.
A: Your hair is currently not Man-Repellant at all. But, you know, if pretty is what you're going for... it's a choice.
M: It is my cross to bear.
A: You are so brave.
Do you guys still have some old flares in your closet? I held onto a few dark pairs but I doubt I can squeeze my ass into them now. Ugh! I really love the look with wedge heels.
ReplyDeleteLara, if I did there is NO WAY they'd still fit me! I love some bootcut but was never a huge fan of flares. It'll take me a while to really warm up to their new-found popularity (at which point they're probably be over.)
ReplyDeletehee, this repartee was totally worthy of the fug girls. I adore the man repeller- she's so cute.
ReplyDeleteLara, I also only had bootcut jeans, but never flares. I don't know if I can' actually pull them off, but she makes me want to try, damn it.
ReplyDeleteLet's toterly be friends you crazy culottes <3
ReplyDeleteI just passed out cold.
