Gas Jockey

Shirt dress, Forever 21 (thrifted and dyed). Striped tank and gray leggings, Mossimo. Gray long-sleeved tee, Bitten. Cowboy boots, Playhouse. Gray knit cap, gift from my MIL. Jade pendants, Phai’s House of Jade auction. Movie belt, some department store.

I always find Mike’s reactions to my outfits amusing. He named this one “gas jockey.” I guess the dress’ new color does make it look a bit like a coverall. Fill ‘er up!

I was taking a picture of my striped tank and jade pendants when Mike caught me. He said “no cleavage on the internet!” so here is the censored version of the detail photo.

I'm not a fan of this look. There's just too much going on. I admire you for having your own style though.

That would be awesome if you made a shirt like that, with Mike on it with the caption "No cleavage on the Internet!"

Great idea on putting his picture on you! He sounds like my hubby, a little. You look very cute and casual.

Too me this outfit looks too "young" like you're trying too hard to look like a hipster or something. I think it would look better without the hat.

Best. Censorship. Ever.

i agree with the young comment, and this look borders on homeless a little. losing the leggings might fix that. and the boots kind of come out of nowhere.

if my husband ever told me i couldn't do something as harmless as show a little cleavage on my own blog he'd be riding the couch for a while.
