I talked to my mom today. She said that she almost named me “Weekendi”. See? Things could have been much worse. She also told me I was born with an extra thumb. But I couldn’t find any scars so I think she just threw that in for good measure.

So I tricked you guys. You thought that my black pants were jeans the last time I wore them, but they aren’t. They are basically really thick tights that are sturdy enough to wear as pants but too expensive to sleep in. (Did I just use the word sturdy to describe something in my wardrobe?) Anyways, I was channeling a little bit of 50s housewife for this look. Slutty 50s housewife — did you see that tummy peeking out? Scandalous.
In other news, we leave for Seattle in 1 week. Thank you all for the wonderful tips!! I don’t know if we saved up enough money for all of the restaurants you listed, but I’ve got an empty credit card and some elastic waist pants that I’ll be wearing for the duration of the trip. You know what they say…when in Rome (or Seattle) wear loose pants. That way you can eat more.

  2. Run, don't walk to Etta by the market. Tom Douglas is a genius and his coconut pie rocks my world. Had to add another to the list!

  3. You look like a lovely housewife… just what the doctor ordered. I'm tired and my house is a mess, can you be my sister wife?

  4. eeeee seattle is exciting! i'll be there at the end of may and i cannot wait for the ocean/mountains/coffee/general amazing-ness.
    those pants are incredible–they pretty much sound like magic.

  5. Hi (new reader here)! This is such a great outfit, and I love your photos! If I could look that good in tights, I'd wear them as pants too. 🙂

  6. Oh my goodness, those look like killer pants and I truly can't believe their just think leggings. Are they magic? Does Gap still have them?

  7. Hah! I'm wearing my ankle-length black cigarette pants today, too. Must be something in the air …

  8. WeeKendi, you look so adorable in this retro-housewife look. Also, you are to forever on be known as weekendi.

  9. Woman, "slutty 50s housewife" TOTALLY works for you! I love the gingham blouse, and the scarf, and the sturdy tights. Wee Kendi for the win!

  10. I don't know what Seattle suggestions you've already gotten, but as one who has recently tour-guided friends around the city, I suggest Molly Moon's lavender ice cream and the Fremont Troll.
