Married a geek, then left a job in advertising to be a personal assistant to a toddler. The pay is... well, nonexistent, but the perks are simply priceless.

Waistbands head north

It was recently brought to my attention that perhaps my "mom jeans" rant was out of line as high-waisted pants and denim actually hit the runways in droves at last month's New York Fashion Week...

No, seriously here is the photo evidence.



I'm not surprised that I'm that last to know either. I don't really pay much attention to haute couture. In addition to my utter inability to pull off the very latest trends, I'm also cheap. No way would I ever blow $500 on shoes, a handbag, or a blouse...

I just wait for fashion to trickle down to my accessible, low-cost local mega-retailer and get my "style on" there. I love to find a bargain and refuse to pay full price unless I really, really, really have to.

As for this particular trend.... Personally, I can do without the mile-high upper thigh, but all you fashion forward folk go right ahead.
