Man Clothes

I like to consider myself decently fashion-forward.  You know those new blazers that the H & M models always wear?  With a bit of a masculine touch?  As soon as I saw that trend, I jumped on the bandwagon.  Guys' trends are so much more comfortable than girls' trends.  So I wore it to school last week with a pair of skinny jeans and a long, knotted pearl necklace.  The kids looked me up and down as soon as I entered.  I could see their eyes judging my outfit, as I always see them doing.  Usually, though, they approve of my fashion.  Today, some of their faces looked like they were sucking on lemons.

"Miss V., you really should only wear that to church."
I still think
it's cute.
I thought about that.  Well, at least this kid has a standard of dressing up to go to church!  Too many people wear jeans with holes and t-shirts to church nowadays, but that's for another day.  Some of them touched the blazer.  Some of them tried to spill things on it so I'd have to take it off.  Some just couldn't look away.  I'm not one to feel self conscious about my outfits especially, but these kids' eyes were burning into my soul.  I mentioned before that these blazers had a bit of a masculine touch.  Maybe it was a bit more than a bit.  I reflected on that after I heard this comment by Jason.

"Miss V., are you a lady?"

Signed,
Miss V.
