Almost naked??

Yeah, I'll get to that in a minute.....

Fall, New Mexico style...

Well, here I sit, trying to make time speed up.  It's a bit past my bedtime now (10:30), and I still have an hour and a half to go ~ my class registration time begins at midnight.

Last year I waited until about 5am figuring that would be safe enough to get the class I wanted.  Wrong.  By then, the class was not only full, but the wait list was full as well.  Lesson learned.  But in order to be absolutely sure, I have to register right at midnight.  Worked for me when there were only 2 slots for the class I took this summer (what a great class that was!).  But, wow, staying up until midnight for something that is necessary but not fun is not my cup of tea.  

So, a little post to distract myself.  Maybe a bit of online window shopping.  

I'm afraid if I go to bed & set my alarm, I'll either not want to rouse myself to get up, or if I do, then I might not be able to fall asleep after.  The wonders of getting older....

So now the nearly naked part....

Naked might be taking this subject a little too far....but have you noticed that so many women are wearing yoga pants or leggings?  I have noticed this trend at UNM, although I see it at the grocery store, library ~ just about anywhere.  At the university, I would guesstimate that 50% of the girls wear leggings or tights instead of jeans.  Some are fairly modest, and their shirt or jacket covers the backside, but most don't.  I'm all for comfort, but I think this trend is nearly as bad as wearing pajamas to the grocery store.

I tried to find some decent photos on Bing, but I would say the majority of the pics were a little too.....suggestive?  Sexy?  Pornographic?   ~ OK guys, I know what you're going to do next, haha.

What do you think?  

Love, 365

***Reminder to those of you who might enjoy reading The Faithful by James O'Toole:  class will be over by Dec. 14th, so let me know if you are interested!  Probably best by e-mail, so leave your comment & I'll drop by with the e-address.

  1. I am an offender of leggings. I wear them with long tunic tops and big old shirts. LOVE them. I do not wear them with anything short on top you know? I work from home and wear them a lot. I wear them to the grocery store too. I do not wear them in public like at the hairdresser or movie or shopping etc. I wear them as leggings not pants. There is a difference. But I am one of "those" :-)

    1. If I worked from home, I'd do the same........I'm currently wearing my scruffy cardigan over pj's, haha. And although I do go to the grocery store with my gym clothes on (who wants to go hom & change for a few items?) I won't be wearing them about town unless I find a pair that removes 15 lbs, which is extremely unlikely!

  2. Leggings? I have noticed that they are really getting popular, like you said kind of like wearing pajamas to the store. They are good for their intended purpose but not for wearing to town, they aren't a replacement for jeans.

    1. Well, I both agree & disagree.......some are OK especially if they aren't ...... well, just an advertisement for "I'm available!". I prefer to wear them with a tunic and boots, but I'm definately a jeans girl.

  3. I NEVER wear leggings, to the store or even at home.
