Super Man

Ok this is not a post about me wearing blue tights with a red cape, although I would probably rock that. Yea, I said it. There is a cape in this little story. Namely, this one:

Talbots Gray Plaid Kimono (no longer available online)
When I first saw this kimono (come on peeps, this is totally a cape, but whatever), I died. Really. Right there on the floor I dropped like a fly.

That blown out gray plaid had me at hello. Seriously Gorgeous. But at $200, kinda high for Florida. You know the drill...waited, waited, went out of stock. Go figure. Then it magically reappeared on sale for $100 and I thought, yea, that is SO happening.

When I received it, right away I was worried. It looked ginormous. Literally like a giant could wear it. When I put it on, my suspicions were sadly confirmed. See?

I even busted out the leather driving gloves for some styling goodness a'la the Talbots pic,
but even they couldn't save this fit disaster.



I tried readers, I really did, but no matter how I looked at it, I was just swimming. I really wanted to love this, but alas, tiny-ness strikes again.

Happy Monday Lovelies!
