As I am walking through the mall and stepping foot into the grand opening of Forever 21, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I am out dated. Yep, I am living in the past. I might think I look okay with my bootcut jeans and black flats but I couldn't be more far off the current trend. What is everyone wearing? Skinny jeans or tights, long draping shirts, and hip slouchy boots over the top of the jean.
As I walked through Macy's, I couldn't help but noticed an entire department dedicated to leggings. I also noticed most of the shoe department sported all styles and colors of boots made for the skinny jean and legging. At one point, my sister and I just started laughing as we couldn't believe how out dated we were. We even got a picture of me with what I am apparently suppose to be wearing.
I am starting to think I could be a good candidate for the What Not to Wear show on TLC (is that show even on anymore?). Honestly, I find the new trend very appealing and some women are really able to pull off the look. As much as I laugh about it, I am not ready to join the skinny jean club. I kind of like my bootcut jeans, boring old cardigans, and black flats. Please tell me I am not the only one not following this latest trend? Is there anyone else out there like me?
