A Noteworthy Shirt for a Rhinestone Cowgirl

I confess. I'm not a cowgirl-surprising, I know. I don't go down to the local Longhorn's Bar to chase my sorrows away- but in this shirt, what sorrows could a gal have?  If music notes aren't your style, you could always try out the stars and stripes one to the right of the blue one. Nothing screams serious cowgirl like a blue shirt with magenta music notes! Found these beauties at the Sweet Corn Festival in Olathe, Colorado-where incidentally, I did go to a livestock auction.

Leave this to rot in the Cabbage Patch

I'm certainly no snob when it comes to hand-made clothes... but this frock... yes you're seeing it right- is a one-sleeved, custom Cabbage Patch dress.  I can't think of any reason why an adult woman would wear this or even design it. This has to be the most bizarre ensemble I've ever seen. Maybe this was a rejected Project Runway outfit? Really, I'm a child at heart; however, that does not mean I dress like one! 

Sew, how do you like me now?

Sewing is a great hobby. My mom tried in vain to get me to learn to sew, which resulted in a pillow shaped in the first letter of my name (and it did win a ribbon at the state fair when I was 8 or 9), and a pair of dolphin sleep shorts (dolphin-patterned I should say- not made out of real dolphin!).

However, I can resist the urge to look like my sewing supplies multiplied and exploded in a festoon of fury over my chest and arms.

That is all.

Anyone seen my lost shaker of salt?

I love Savers! Savers is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. Now, I must say, I also got some killer cute heels, and shirts here at this visit, so my mocking of these ugly shirts is not anywhere indicative of the good stuff you'll find at Savers. I've seen some dog-barf ugly stuff at Nordstrom too.

Look at this number- you must be a middle-aged Parrothead, still dreaming about wasting away in Margaritaville to wear this number. Is there really any excuse for this shirt- or has the designer gone to the birds?  This shirt is worthy of two photos. Okay, I might understand the parrots hanging out in the leaves on the pocket (are they making out?!), and on the other side of the shirt-but what's with the awkwardly posed floating parrot head lurking towards the collar?

Shazaam!

This was found by a friend in Denver, Colorado at Savers.  It's a beautiful number for those days you can't decide on what color you want to wear.  Perfect for all occasions, like half-price day at the Dollar Tree or perhaps if you're really festival and just love color? This top would look fierce with the yellow pants below.

They Call Me Mellow Yellow

Found this pair of elastic-waist cream puffs at a local thrift store. There is no excuse for plus-sized, elastic-waist pants as is- but banana yellow?! Who in their right mind wakes up and thinks, "Oh, a pair of yellow pull-on pants would be very flattering for my curvy figure?" That's right- NO ONE. These pants should be shredded into rags for an animal shelter- but they might make the animals trip out.
