Here's the goddamn truth. I have a really awesome sense of style... I just don't use it.

For real, when was the last time you saw me wear something that wasn't a band t-shirt and a pair of jeans, or a long-sleeved monochromatic t-shirt and a pair of jeans, or some kind of black top and a pair of jeans? (Halloween does not count.) Yeah, I thought so.

This morning, I stumbled across my new favorite blog, and while browsing between Mindy's cute and enthusiastic tips, something I've been kicking around in my head for a long time came to sudden fruition.

I really want/need to start dressing like a grown-up. Or at the very least, a girl. I dress like my brother right now, and it needs to stop. (No offense Eric.) Being currently unemployed kind of makes the entire wardrobe overhaul slightly more difficult... more like "out of the question until I get hired at one of the fabulous places I am currently stalking."

I've been secretly wanting to do this for a few years, but I've had these ridiculous body issues that have prevented my brain from allowing myself to wear what I really want to. Stupid? Obviously, but you know how it is. I'm working on losing the stupidity, I'm on a rigorous exercise regimen, and I've enlisted the help of the two most fashion-savvy gals I know for assistance (...one of them doesn't know it yet... you will).

Obviously it's going to be a slow process, and my RHCP shirt is not getting thrown away, but my awesome sense of style is going completely to waste, and I will not have it any more. Watch out, fly friends -- I'm joining you... soon.

PS: You need to start reading Mindy's blog, for real. Not only is she cute, fun, and full of awesome blogs, but she's also Kelly Kapoor on "The Office" (and she's one of the writers too -- I didn't know that).

And finally, one gem I forgot to share yesterday: "E18" by Detektivbyrån, whatever that means. It's fucking awesome.
