They tried to sing the Violent Femmes.


Some creepy and most likely very unhealthy recipes tell you to "just add water". Lately, my foolproof outfit ideas have been "just add thermal socks". The outfit would be fine without them, but its just so much better with them. I don't think my life would be half as joyous as it is now if I didn't own any thermal socks, or have friends to bond over the comfort and awesomeness of thermal socks with. Thermal socks WILL change your life. Not to mention ruffles of nubby knits.

Tonight my residence had this Community Dinner that was themed 'anything BUT clothes', so I came decked out in scarves. I think I look pretty good for not wearing clothes.

People ended up getting pretty creative with the theme. Some came wearing towels, garbage bags, carpets, newspapers, beer boxes and two creative young gentlemen came dressed as Christmas trees!

I love the not-clothes outfit. Epic clashing. The shirt in the first outfit is cool, too. Thermal socks are nice.

Mmm, I must get me some thermal socks! Then we can bond over warmth as well as Maury and pictures of Kurt Cobain and cats!

Also, second outfit is totally boss. It reminds me of Susie Bubble, and that's a huge compliment. Well, you know that, we've bonded over our shared stalkerness for her, too...

Ah! The skirt scarf is amazing. Especially with the tights. It reminds me of gumball machines and Tetris. Amazing.

I totally love the thermal socks idea, I mean they're warm; they're big; they're THERMAL- there is really nothing missing.

What a spiffy-looking contraption you built to wear! I don't think I would've been able to guess scarves if you hadn't said it was so.

I'm sure the tree-boys had nothing on you.
