... and who thought all i needed was yet another pair of sexy stilettos

when i was working for THE university and we were required to look our perfect conservative best every single effing day, i longed for the day when i can wear t-shirt, jeans, and my favorite pair of sneakers. i counted the weeks, days, and hours until finally, i can stuff all my work clothes in one closet and say goodbye to them at least until i get a job again.

and then when the day came i bought myself lots of flat shoes and ransacked my aunt's closet for her old jeans, and began wearing sneakers and t-shirts ... and enjoyed it immensely until i realized that while i looked all of twenty years old, i also began looking as unsophisticated, well, as a normal 20 year old girl. (of course this comes with the caveat that some twenty year old girls nowadays don't look unsophisticated at all, but let's pretend we're dealing with the real world where twenty year old girls don't look sophisticated. think outside of greenbelt 3 and you know what i mean)

so yesterday, in spite of the fact that i've been telling myself that i don't need yet another pair of stilettos, there being no place to go to in stilettos, i ventured into the nine west sale and came out with a pair of beaded satin sandals with 3 inch heels. they were lovely, they were sexiful, and there was something about them that made them look hot with jeans. think hi-low dressing.

and so today, i got one of my nicer long-sleeved polo shirts, my "long legged" jeans, and slipped on my sexy stilettos. i sat a bit straighter, and smiled a bit wider, and learned more lessons that i ever did wearing my tshirts and sneakers, and got the best kind of compliment a girl can ever receive:

"you're losing weight"

*incidentally, one friend went as far as asking if i were seeing someone, most likely because of the sexiful new look.
