Chocolate Chip Pancakes.

Let us first discuss how INCREDIBLY awkward I find it to take pictures of my face. I know it's like beating a dead horse, but really, it's just so much easier to post pictures of the rest of my body, because let's face (ha) the facts and realize that we're posting our clothes on this site. So really, it's no big loss for you. Maybe someday you'll see a clear picture of my face. Maybe. If you're lucky. Or, when Anna and I are in the same country sometime soon, we'll take a picture together and I'll feel much less doofy.
So this morning I met my friend Meg (she's adorable. Her style is so preppy and polished (in the best way!) and it's just so effortless!) for breakfast at a local establishment called The Dor-Stop. If you're from around Pittsburgh and you haven't eaten there, please do. I don't even like pancakes but their chocolate chip pancakes were a.ma.zing. They were just the right amount of cakey, yet still fluffy. Perfection. Mmm, my mouth is watering just blogging about them. (Hello, Pavlov, you're salivating dogs (Libby) are calling and they want their dignity back.) The Dor-Stop was featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, so it's totally legit.

Now, moving on, you can all probably tell that Anna is much more into fashion than I am by reading our posts. I tell stories about pancakes, she talks about the placement of belts. The bottom line is, if I like it I wear it. I was tempted to wear another belt today actually, but then thought I would give you guys a break. I can't bore you in the first week, now can I? I included the picture above so that you could make sure that I still had feet and wore shoes. It bothers me if you don't know what shoes I'm wearing because I could totally be cheating and wearing slippers and you guys would never know! (Note to self: Wear slippers someday and just don't post any pictures from the knee down. Yes, that's a perfect plan. Nobody will know.)
Along with what Anna said in a previous post, at the risk of sounding like I'm bragging, I'm in love with my bag. That's why I wanted to get a close up of it. I got it when I was studying in Italy but I'm only mentioning this because of how good of a deal it was. This bag cost 10 euro in Florence - when I studied there, that was like the equivalent of $12.50. $12.50! Insane! And it's so versatile. I guess the one other aspect of my outfit I'd like to mention (oh! quick tangent. This is my black blazer which is identical to the gray one I wore the other day. I told you all I'd be posting it sometime soon!) but I like to call these my diaper shorts. They're bunched at the top, but fit more nicely than real diapers do I guess. (I'm not for certain about the fit of diapers, but I guess I'll find out in May when my little niece is born and comes out ready to have her diaper changed and demanding pretty shoes to wear. Of course I'll spoil her and fulfill both requests.)

Other than that, I like my outfit. A creepy guy at the ATM complimented me on it, so if that doesn't solidify my fashion awesomeness today, I don't know what does. Unless Auntie Donna complains about my blue tights like she did with Anna....

Until Tomorrow. Libby
