wearing overalls past the age of ten
Thursday 04.04.13
overalls are back! last time i owned a pair i was sixteen. i cut them in half and sloppily sewed embroidered material up the entire length of both legs. and then i wore them to phish shows. all of this is to say that i was going through an identity crisis then, and am certainly open to the idea that i might be going through one now. in spite of this i can't deny it, i love these overalls. they make me feel young and cheeky. BUT you won't find me DIY'ing them! i learned my lesson the embarrassing way.
side note: i googled "overalls phish shows". i don't really know why i thought that would bring to to a picture of myself at age 16 in some horribly crafted overalls, but i kind of did. it goes without saying, no dice. but i did come across this DIY overall, and if i'm being honest it does make me feel quite a bit better about myself. so what do you think? overalls: yay or nay? xx- sarah {more after the jump}

I love overalls! Plain and simple ones, not too trendy, not too grungey. I bought a pair almost two years ago, claiming they were coming back (at which my fiance scoffed), and I am so glad they have finally come back. Yours are super cute!
we're on the same fashion page - LIVING for them....

Nay. Overalls are one of those things that unless you're under three or a farmer I don't like! But I love the nail color! :)
these and the comments on my facebook are amazing! thanks for chiming in everyone.. for all the kind words and especially for those of you who say NAY for also softening the blow with a comment about what you DO like. :) you're the best!
i don't know if i could pull them off, but your version is so simple and perfect...i'm sort of inspired to try it. sort of.
