Proving that Overalls ARE and Always will be In Style

This is a shout out to all the fine bloggers from Raleigh I had the pleasure of meeting last night. Don't ever let anyone tell you what you can or can't rock! Can I get a "Bow-chicka-wow-wow"?



Yes, laugh. This is meant to be funny.

For those who are curious (and this is in the comments as well): All of these were likely purchased more than 7 years ago. The long denim ones are Todd Oldham Jeans from Marhalls, the khaki ones are from Old Navy, and the short ones (probably from bought back in the 90s) are Route66 from Kmart. I was about 30lbs lighter when I first wore the short ones, which I mainly wore to square dances at summer camp.

  2. oh my goodness, how cute you are! I wore the same pair of Walmart denim overalls many a day to school - in high school. I had no idea they weren't cool until college. Maybe that's why I was never a "cool" kid.

    2. Where are your 4 inch heals?

  4. I actually like the middle pic. No. I'm serious. They're cute. On you. Overalls used to be cute on me until the stopped being baggy. Overalls should never, ever, be tight.

  7. Wow you certainly make them look appealing. Lovely, we don't get this type of overalls over here in the UK I know they where big back in the 90s in the US as we seen them on every movie they made back then at one point I thought that all Americans just owned overalls, kidding. Our overalls for women leave a lot to be desired I have to wear these when I go on to construction sites. Drab, Drab, Drab. where did you get them ones from?

  9. One more thing Rachel, the link you posted... we found a pair of those in Joe's truck when he bought it. I wore them as my Halloween costume last fall when I was pregnant :)

  10. Thats great Paige, thanks for the info. I have had troueble buying things from the states before though as most of the retailers will not export to the UK. At least I know what I am looking for now.
