When in doubt, wear Red

Every girl has the same thought everytime she gets ready for a night out --> "I have nothing to wear... I hate everything I own." Forget the thousands of dollars we spend on clothes in a lifetime. Nobody wants to think about the dress they bought three years ago. We YEARN for something new, something fantastic, and hopefully something that will match our favorite pair of jeans. However, not every girl is as lucky as me. As soon as these thoughts go through my head... I just walk across the street. The J.A.P. (Jewish American Princess for all you P.C. nuts) always has just the right belt or necklace to make my plain ol' t-shirt look like a brand new outfit. And lucky for us, we are close enough to the same size to share almost everything (her legs are longer than they look;).

The second great (and sometimes not so great) perk about living across the street is that the closet comes with very blunt opinions. Never fear that you will go out in public with the wrong shade of brown belt on! The JAP from across the street will scoff (well more like giggle) immediately and wisk the belt away, leaving you as ashamed as a 14 y.o. boy caught reading porn by his mother. But don't worry, you can just take another spin through the closet. And ladies, trust me, you will find something else you like. Bottow line, I never leave our humble, sleepy hollow neighborhood looking like one of those fashion "don't" pictures you see in Glamour.

The JAP is, once again, saving my a$$ tomorrow by loaning me her Theory suit jacket to pair with my Tory Burch Jumper Dress. My closing argument may suck, but at least I'll look good!

If you are not as lucky as us and don't have a best friends closet within walking distance, just remember the famous words of Bill Blass, "When in doubt, wear red."

Love,

The Red Head from Across the Street
