The Walk of Shame

I'm just lounging around my apartment waiting to get the call from that Mr. Someone to come out for the night. I'm in no way ready. I just put laundry in the wash and I have not done my make up or my hair. No point in getting too early and just sitting around waiting. So what way to be proactive than to start a blog chronicling my Adventures in Love Lust & Liquor.

Let's take a little tangent into early today when I was texting my girlfriend as to what I should wear tonight. And I believe this is where most girls go wrong. They get all glammed up for the night ahead of them they don't stop to think about what tomorrow might bring. Yes, you look fabulous now, but what about tomorrow morning when you're updo is falling out, your mascara is rubbed off and your skin is blotchy? Thus begins your walk of shame in 5 inch heels and a mini skirt that 9 am has never seen. You better hope there is a cab waiting right outside his door for you to hop in. And please tell me you at least considered bringing your sunglasses.

Don't try and place yourself on a pedistool and say that never happened. It's happened to everyone. The problem is you must take control of the situation before it takes control of you.

Let's take this evening for example. I am meeting up with Mr. Someone. He will most likely be out or will have been out with colleagues. As I was shopping today I thought of buying black capris. Nice. Simple. It would be easy to wear them back out tomorrow without looking too conspicuous of my walk of shame. (Might I add this is not a "walk of shame" I will now call it a "walk of pride" because Mr. Someone is not Mr. Anyone) But capris were too bland. It's 70 degrees out. So after much deliberation I just ended up buying black leather pumps, screams SEX!

So then I was faced with my closet as to find something to wear and it's been narrowed down to 2 options. Jeans and a tank top with newly purchased FMe Pumps or Short skirt with simple v-neck and FMe Pumps.
Now you might be reading this thinking I will go for the jeans and tank from what I have said earlier about mini skirts in early morning hours, but think of it this way. If I meet up with him at a bar before going back to his place, I want to give him a sneak peek of the coming attractions. What coming attractions do you see in jeans? Like I said, it's 70 degrees out. I'm going with the mini skirt. My Audrey Hepburn sunglasses are already in my purse with my compact and a toothbrush. :)

Please girls, it's only a walk of shame if you look shameful.
