I have what one would call an eclectic wardrobe. Searching through my racks, you will find everything from formal dresses from my prom and bridesmaids days to professional attire to casual kicking back clothes to sports fanatic gear.
Since on Fridays I am allowed the pleasure of leaving the business duds in the closet and sporting the jeans at work, I set out this AM to find the perfect T shirt to go with my favorite demin.
I took a quick look and laid eyes on a shirt I hadn’t worn in a while. Yep, that was it. The winner for the day. I quickly grabbed it and threw it on. Then I looked in the mirror.
Although I still think the shirt is adorable, seeing myself in it make it painfully obvious that the shirt had officially crossed over into being too young for me. (Insert silent weeping on the passing of my youth.)
I trudged back to my closet to find a more appropriate replacement.
Yes! This one is perfect!!
Hey, I said the other shirt was too young, but I didn’t say I was going to grow up!


I LOVE the Woody tee.
We get to go a bit more casual here too on Fridays … but I still can’t wear a tee-shirt.
(By the way, how long ago since you wore those? If you tell me since being in schol…I will hate you forever damnit lol)
Oh no! I’ve owned them for a number of years. I know I’m too old to buy silly novelty shirts, but sometimes I can’t resist!
The second option was soooo much better, Kerry! I recently bought a Garfield graphic tee. Age is so relative, right?
Absolutely! The IP and I were just talking today about how we feel like we are in our 20s still. If I stay there in my mind I don’t have to grow up! And I truly believe we are soul sisters…I was just telling my son today about my favorite cartoon, Garfield! I had an orange cat growing up that I named, Odie!
I had orange cat growing up too! His name was C.J. I’m guessing you have a penchant for lasagna as well?
Lasagna good….
LOOOOVE Woody!!
I feel like a kid again. Where have all the good cartoons gone.
They have all disappeared. What’s on today is garbage!
I have clothes like that…they stayed young, while I got older! (snap!) Cute post.
Thanks! I like to think my T’s keep me young. At least I hope they do!
