Of Leather Shorts and Ramblings

shorts: Pull & Bear
shoes: Jeffrey Campbell Lita

I'm stubborn and a creature of habit. So really "change" is not something I embrace wholeheartedly. When I find something that works for me I tend to stick by it. Not the wisest thing, I know.

Take these shorts..It's one of my favorite piece in my closet. I've worn it so many times and can't seem to get enough of it. I love every fold and crease, the color is gorgeous, it has a distress feel to it, and it's leather that doesn't stick to my skin. Perfect right? Well almost! The thing is, it's too big for me. It was a size bigger for me when I originally bought it and now it can literally slide off my thighs without unbuttoning. It doesn't have belt loops so belting it is not helping much. Does it stop me from wearing it? No. Will I get rid of it anytime soon? Not really. Did I bore you with that relatively long essay about a pair of shorts? Probably. 

I'm sorry. I tend to babble endlessly about mundane stuff. I lost my train of thought.

    Pareho lang naman tayo eh :D When I love a piece of clothing I abuse it (like my almost seven-years-old jeans) and kahit anong bad thing about it (like hindi bagay yung color piping ng isang sando that I really like sa the rest ng suot ko) wala akong pakialam kasi super love ko talaga sila XD
