Today I got low in my clothing reserves, where most of my wardrobe is in the hamper instead of my dresser. All of my usual long sleeve shirts were dirty, leaving me with a grey sweatshirt from Lands' End. I bought it a few weeks ago after looking at this photo, where it appears kind of silken and dressed up.
But then I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror while wearing it, and here's what I really looked like:
I am a fashion disaster.



I love this post. This is how I feel about most of the clothes I own. Looks great in the catalog/on the screen/in the store. Not so much in the regular light of day (or night) and somehow it doesn't look super-fantastico on me.
Thanks for the reality check - I don't feel so alone :)

Haha. Love the "dressy casual idea." Of course that pic implies i need to iron my sweats.
