Hoodies and Sweatpants
Can I please get a hoodie and some sweatpants please?! A pair of fresh tennis shoes, a husband beater (thanks T), and call it a day?
Don't get me wrong now. I'll step out in some stilettos and a fresh ensemble in a minute, but sometimes I just want to take it back. Take it back to the nice and simple, to the easy and free, to the raw and lovely. Some may think it's ghetto or too masculine, but I promise you, when a female from my home town throws on her sweats, there's nothing masculing or ghetto about it. I once read a forward that said "You know you're from DC when you can rock some baggy sweatpants, a beater, and timbs and STILL look sexy." That couln't be any closer to the truth. There's just something so down to earth and unpretentious about my sweatpants. =)
Yeah, I understand that you should just dress the way you want to dress, do you, be you and all that other stuff, but you just don't walk out in the timbs and hoodies out in California. This is L.A.!; the home of the beautiful, sexy, fashionable and rich. You really have to step out in this land of the wonderful. Even people in the grocery stores are dressed! But... I'm tired, which is why I ask, can I please get a hoodie and some sweatpants?

Dag I can't even imagine feeling like that...Cause Gurl you KNOW...we steps out and can have a scarf on our heads and still look sexy out here...just being us, down to earth, ready for whatever! As a matter of fact...I am going home and putting on that outfit right now...and do nothing...just chill, take it easy...
my outfit for the summer is a long skirt and a HB. ALL DAY LONG!!! Get a pack of Hanes 3 for $8 and call it a day...
J...rock it, rock whatever you want to rock....make LA conform to you...you don't have to conform to LA...but you already know that
Lol. You're so silly! And what's makes it funny is that you are dead serious. Talking with the "like what", "for real", "this aint a game" attitude. You got definitely got that urea spice ma!
Well it's comforting to hear that some men appreciate a dressed down lady. Good lookin out Mike.
You know how I roll! You look good dressed down. I just don't care. When I dress down, it's so down to earth it's sub-terranian! Lol I would be the one to roll around LA in my rental car with some Old Navy Sweats, beat up Reeboks I've had for about two years, and a t-shirt that's probably faded! Don't make me come out there and show em how it's done!!!
