The Girl in the Green... Sweater

I always seem to follow the fashion trend a year after it all becomes fashionable.... why, you ask? Well, it takes me a while to warm up to the idea of the fashion. Skinny jeans? I thought those were hideous when people first started wearing them... in fact, I couldn't understand the appeal, until I put on ten pounds my last semester of college, and I needed new pants asap, and the skinny ones were the only ones I could afford/ find. Wow. It was one of the most life changing purchases I have made. Ok, well, not really. But do you know why they're called skinny jeans? Because they make you look skinny! I always feel so fat if I wear any pants besides my skinny ones. Seriously. I love skinny jeans.

Which brings me to my most recent purchase- the sweater. Of course I've owned sweaters before. Duh. I was born in Phoenix; the only form of warmth we purchased were sweaters. And I attended BYU-Idaho... you'd better believe I owned a couple sweaters there. But, I've never really been a sweater girl, like, I wear a sweater as a shirt, and I think it's comfortable, and I think it looks cute... yeah. That was never something I thought I could pull off. But guess what? I can pull that off. I really can. And guess what else? I love it. I love my sweaters!

Do I sound materialistic yet? Please say I do. It's better than sounding unhappy with life, right? Because who could be unhappy with the perfect job? And an amazing house? And a trip home next week? And a great family? And... everything?
