The following exchange happened yesterday morning.
ME: Ugh, my throat hurts.
MY SISTER: Man, your ankles are really skinny for your feet!
ME: I know. They're like chicken ankles.
MY SISTER: Chankles!
So now I'm all paranoid about how I looked New Year's Eve, because wouldn't ya know it, I took the "chankles" out for some air!
Dress: Banana
Shoes: White House Black Market
Brooch: vintage, a gift
Ring: Macy's
Earrings: Francesca's
Ah well. Now you know why I wear boots all the time.
Anyhoodle, that dress was another great find on the clearance rack. The original price was $98 and when I got my hands on it, it was marked down to $44.99. Then it was an additional 40% off the sale price, plus we had a $20 coupon that we applied to our whole three-item purchase. Once all of the discounts were applied, my dress was just under $20. Normally I'd give you an exact figure, but I can't find the receipt. Whoops.
How was your New Year's? Does your charming younger sister make fun your chankles, too?
Hey, I said your feet look fine in shoes, it was just the bright white socks that threw the chankles into sharp relief. Don't misrepresent me, foo!
ReplyDeleteI like the elephant.
I don't remember anything about socks being the problem. Although, I was full of snot then, so I was distracted.
ReplyDeleteI like the elephant, too. :-)
Lovin' the sisterly love. :-)
ReplyDeleteOkay, #1, Paige, you look gorgeous.
#2, take it from someone who veers more right on the chankle-cankle continuum--EMBRACE your chankles! I'm envious!
Happy New Year to both you gals.
