BELL SKIRT REDUX

Monday's outfit was actually an outfit I wore over the weekend, so today's outfit is the weekday version of it. I often will wear an outfit I wore over the weekend during the following week, or wear an outfit I wore during the week over the weekend. I can only come up with so many top + bottom combinations, which is why it's a good thing I'm not a celebrity. I can only imagine the headlines:

Is Kelinda Losing Her Mind? Starlet Wears Same Skirt Twice in One Week!

Bad Breakup Signs? 'Boyfriend Took Everything But the Skirt!' She Says

Kelinda Won't Take Off the Skirt Brad Pitt Bought Her -- Angelina is Fuming!

And all the accompanying photos will be grainy shots of me trekking from the parking garage to my office or from the parking lot to the grocery store. Because I am a fascinating person. *

Sorry for not making my usual rounds of commenting this week! Things have been crazy with a new massive project at work, taking care of things at home, seeing The Walkmen play at Fitzgerald's tonight, and my general abuse of Harvard commas. Whew! But I'll be back and commenting next week.

* I am not really a fascinating person. If I were famous, interviewers would ask me something like, "Were you at That Huge Party That Some Huge Star Threw last week?" and I'd respond with, "No. I thought about going, but then decided to stay home and bake a walnut jam cake instead." Then I'd tell him about how I ate the entire thing myself while watching 7 back-to-back episodes of Iron Chef America. **
