What I Wore: Dec. 31st

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?

  1. 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!

    I like the elephant.

  2. I don't remember anything about socks being the problem. Although, I was full of snot then, so I was distracted.

    I like the elephant, too. :-)

  3. Lovin' the sisterly love. :-)
    Okay, #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.
