    But really, where can one find maternity clothing that isn't terrible or awkward?

    Old navy has some pretty decent Maternity stuff actually.

    I got my box from Old Navy Petite today and I am in love. Decided to try it and it paid off. Got several layering long sleeve shirts and camis in a variety of colors that actually fit properly. From now on, I try stuff on in the store and then buy it online in petite when I get home. :mrgreen:

    That's the hat, just in a different color.

    Yeah, I was browsing your flickr the other day and thought how cute it was! And I already have a purple hat in a similar style, so red would be perfect

    (also Mori commented on how far and fabulous your photography has come and I agree)

    I wonder if I could pull off dressing like the dudes from Street Etiquette. I'm a white dude from the suburbs. I think I am about the same age (20s) and I am skinny, so maybe. They seem to mostly wear well-made stuff, which isn't really affordable most of the time, and be really awesome with the accessories. I worry that a white guy dressing like that in those cuts with those accessories would look like Andy's (from the Office) sort of vaguely rebellious younger brother though.

    I think I would be OK with that.

    Well I figured that I can order them, and if I don't like them or they seem a bit dodgy, I can always send them back.

    No, I agree with you totally NaC, a wallet says a lot about a person. It's got to be something classy, with a bit of style and not too dull but nor too elaborate. That's why whenever I buy a purse (or whatever the American word is) I always spend ages choosing. My current is leather, enough room for cards, house keys and in a plain pink colour. It's simple, and I think that's what a wallet and purse needs to be, simple to suit all occasions because a lot of people from your family to boss could end up seeing it.

    Man, to me a wallet is just another thing I can have unique and personal to me. My current wallet is a giraffe print. I don't buy plain things.

    Now, granted, I'm not a dude. And I imagine the 'everything-I-own-must-be-in-some-way-personalized' thing is entirely a personal opinion. But if I take out my wallet to pay for something and the cashier sees that there's, say, a pin-up design on the inside, they're not going to refuse my business because of it.

    I want to make a line of wallets and purses that say "SLUT" or "BOOTY CALL" in glitter on them.

    Yeah, but there are thousands of other things that everyone can see that no one gives a damn about.

    I don't think there's anything a wallet "should" be or do, as that's entirely personal to the person who owns it. It SHOULD hold your important cards/money/whatever. For mine, it "should" also hold change.

    The only time I'll look down on a person because of their wallet is if they have one of those damn duct tape ones. :P

    Speaking of wallets, I have a Louis Vuitton wallet. Not because I am baller or pretentious or anything like that, but my grandfather was and when he died I inherited his wallet. It was a free wallet, in good condition and it is on the slim side so it keeps me from loading it up with cards and other shit where it looks like I have a growth coming out of my right buttock, so I have become quite fond of it.

    The thing that annoys me is every so often I will be at a restaurant or store or something and the person there will comment on how they have the same wallet. Why do they do this? It's like they are trying to say, "Even though I have this shit job, I have an expensive wallet too, so don't judge me."

    I'm picturing the following scenario:

    You meet a great girl and you hang out a few times, get some coffee together, watch netflix at your house and you decide that there might be something serious here. So you ask her out to a nice dinner, you get fancied up, go and wine and dine her and things are going great. You offer to pay for her dinner and this is the moment where you should pull out the credit card and drop it in there like a confident, capable man, but all she's seeing is the naked cartoon chick on the inside of your billfold.

    Honestly, that really wouldn't phase me

    Maybe it depends on the image

    But I'm not going to like someone less because their wallet is mildly interesting.
