Camille’s drop crotch. They are the most comfortable pair of pants I own. I have a long torso, so I appreciate anything that does not put restrictions on the distance from my waist to my crotch. Otherwise I feel like I have a constant wedgie. Low rise is a big no no for me.
These pants are awesome. Besides the fact that I can’t do yoga in them, I have no other complaints. Oh well, I can’t do a horizontal split anyway.

I’ve been getting asked a lot by friends on what they should wear to interviews. I wonder if interview books jump in sales during this economy.
Having worked in high rises by the water front and crammed garage startup office spaces, I’ve found that a dress shirt and a trench is always the safe way to go.

J: Should I wear my diamond earrings?
Me: No, you don’t want to distract your employer with your jewelry during the interview.
J: Does that mean I should not wear a low cut shirt?
Me: afdsafs?

I ate so many good meals over Christmas that I may need to get a new stomach sewn in to accommodate all the good food. Come to think of it, I really would not mind having two stomachs. Eating is so enjoyable, why not double the fun :-)

This is an exciting week for me, as I have four friends visiting from out of town. I look forward to showing them around SF, and utilizing more of my imaginary extra stomach.

I am not sure if this coat was meant to be a rain coat, but it sure shelters me from the drizzle in SF pretty well. This is what I am wearing to combat the crowd in downtown SF during last minute Christmas shopping.
I wore coat this to dinner the other day and was told by my non-Chictopian friends that I looked like I came from the jungle in Vietnam. Ironically, the brand of this coat is Da Nang, named after a city in Vietnam. Good for Da Nang, the brand translates through in their clothing so well that even the “commoners” get the message :-)

I am still trying to figure out the best way to wear my new white oxfords.

My pose was inspired by Ester, who always manages to rock her look.
