Happy No-Pants Wednesday, folks!
Thanks so much for your feedback on Group Fitness Etiquette, loved hearing your rules and habits!
However, I’m being a bit blasphemous today. It’s just too cold.
No shame in that game.
Some pants are okay on No Pants Wednesday. If they’re comfy, cozy, and bought from Considering this chilly weather (I know, I’m being a bit of a pansy, but the mornings are freezing for this summer girl!), I wanted something hot hot hot for lunch.
Steamy... just how I like it.
Grilled buffalo chicken sammy!! Sharp provolone cheese on a sandwich thin with Frank’s drenched chicken. Perfectly paired with some steamed veggies. Just what my belly needed.
In other news, quite possibly my favorite holiday is right around the corner.
HALLOWEEN!!
Honestly, any real reason to dress up in a costume, and I’m 110% down.
Pirate-ina!
I have an entire GIANT bag of costumes that takes up more room in my closet than anything else.
Psychadelic fairy!
Wings, glitter, feather boas, cat ears…. the list goes on.
Wooooootini!
Last year, for a theme party, I was even a (sexy) Ewok. I am probably not going to post EVERY picture of a costume I’ve been recently (there was that year I was a “superman’d ho” – my personal step back for all feminist progress, but hilarious in my eyes).
Jersey Girl: We Pump Fists, Not Gas
My senior year, I embodied my all-time favorite film, Dazed and Confused, trying to match the badassery of the Senior Girls.
AIR RAID!
And the ever popular Toga Party.
Just call me Artemis.
Or that time I dressed up as a Zebra for the Lady Gaga concert.
Little Monster
Last year, I was Patty O’Green from Rainbow Brite, my first time wearing a fancy store-bought costume (since I was a little girl, at least).
Luck of the Irish
This year, though, I’m trying to figure out what to be. I don’t even know what my plans are (other than UNC’s homecoming weekend with ClaireB) but I’d love to make a funky costume.
Here’s what I’ve thought of so far:
1. Hop Cone
This is an ingredient in beer. It is NOT a pot plant.
2. Redfoo from the Sexy and I Know It video
Animal print pants rocking outta control.
3. Bubbly
Pop champagne wooooahhhh
(I know this is a rerun from New Belgium’s Tour de Fat Durham visit…. But reuse-recycle, right? Green’s the new orange and black.)
4. Big Boss’ Angry Angel
My favorite Kolsch = my favorite costume inspiration?
Basically, since there’s no real character, I’d just take some creative liberty.
5. No Doubt Gwen Stefani
Remember the video for I’m just a girl?
I might not have the abs (yet!) but she’s such a rockstar. I’d just need a tank top, put some Old English letters on there saying GWEN, curl my hair, VOILA!
What’re you being this year for Halloween?
What’s your best Halloween costume of all time?
