Vintage is Delicious

I love to combine old and new!  Check out this yummy little green ensemble.  The cardigan is vintage.  Not only is it chic, but it is tasty, too.  I also have a yellow one.  They were gifts for Mommy Chick when she was a Bald Monkey Baby!  Actually, she wasn't bald.  She had hair like Adam Lambert.  See...I have photographic evidence.  Keep your comments about my Nana's stylin' plaid couch to yourself.

  I've paired my vintage cardigan with cute little yoga pants and a matching top from  The Children's Place.  They are on sale for $5 right now and come in oodles of fun colors!  I picked up three pair yesterday and consider them a nice basic for my day wear collection.  I wouldn't wear them to dinner with Kim Kardashian should I be invited, but they are perfect for casual events.

Here's how they look in action at the park.  I'm kind of getting the hang of this swing thing.  Notice how the bell sleeves of my sweater catch the wind, just like an Olympic ski jumper, or whatever they are called.

I will give you fair warning, however, that you might be mistaken for a boy in this outfit.  A nice lady stopped MC today and exclaimed, "He (sic) so handsome!"  I guess that is better than the "Hey big fella," I got a few weeks ago.

Thigh High Boots...

Not just for hookers!

Mommy Chick is on a hunt for the perfect above-the-knee boot. I will not be wearing this style this season. I'm mean, check out my thighs. It would be a sin to cover these frog legs!

By the way, the camera adds rolls.

I have to admit, though, all the other babies would be jealous of me in these by Christian Louboutin. They are $1,995.

Notice how the heel is not super high or super skinny? That is the key to looking like a Glamazon rather than a Lady of the Night.

MC really loves these by Chinese Laundry. They sell on Zappos for $98.95 and would look fab with leggings or a skinny jean. A Starbucks cup would also nicely accessorize this look. I like when MC's boobie milk is really jacked up on caffeine.

Because MC and I do like to coordinate a bit, I am considering adding these to my winter look. It's the Lil Star boot from The Children's Place (where BTW my Auntie Dill once saw Larry Birkhead shopping with Dannilynn. She said he seemed "fabulous," if you catch my drift). I digress. These boots are $14.95.
