A Lesson in Posing, Religious Observance Begs Sabbatical

Repellows, it pains me to announce a week long sabbatical starting right here and now in favor of substituting bread with cardboard squares more traditionally called "matzah." Unfortunately though, there is no other way: I am very, very, busy reciting the story of Exodus with my extended family in the Sunshine State while simultaneously radiating my skin. I'm so white, I'm green will no longer be my mantra come the next time you see me. Actually, it might.

I promise to post photos of my diapers cool bathing suits and neat floppy hats upon return but until then, here are a few poses you should acquaint yourself with so that when I'm back, our bond will feel even closer.
The Quintessential Blogger Pose. Swinging bucket bag, hidden face by hair, flinging arms et al.
The Running-Off-This-Terrace-Sionara-Mothafucka Pose. But it doesn't include actual suicide so don't get any crazy ideas again about me and psychiatrist "just chatting to chat," mom.
 The Yoga Pose. And you know this doesn't work unless you're wearing flare leg jeans and wedges. Serious bonus points for closed eyeballs.
The Man Repeller Pose. I see London, I see France, I see...yo'ass, girlfriend! And even so...not even a small part of me wants to sleep with you.
The other Man Repeller Pose. Because if you're not going to give me bunny ears, someone else should. And I nominate myself.
And finally, The Pose that tricks you into thinking I'm human, not dancer. 

shirt: Acne, flare jeans: Textile Elizabeth + James, necklace: Jimmy Choo x H&M, leopard print belt: J Crew, rings: Kimberly Baker and DANNIJO, shoes: Christian Louboutin, bucket bag: Hobo International. 

I miss you already. My tear drops turn to cries and those cries turn to wails and the wails turn to...a reason to don harem pants! It's a quick fix. Now, Happy Easter and Passover. Please wear neons, pastels, lots of organza and flatforms to keep the flame of my soul ignited this week.

Sincerely,
               Your Resident Drop Crotch

  8. I love that you can't stop quoting that song, are we human or are we dancer. I remember when it first came out I made up this whole story in my head about how they were german and didn't actually speak english in order to justify those lyrics. Anyway, just glad to see someone else shares my love of the absolute nonsense that is that song.

  13. I don't know what I'm going to do without my daily dose of Repellent. I guess I must take to the streets in fully man repelling gear (I'll start with harem pants, obvs) to try and contain my emotional loss for the week.

  51. Dear Man Repeller,

    I've just stared reading your blog. It's quite addictive. I have the sudden urge to wear bowners and socks with sandals.

    Question for you, how can I be a man repeller in a country where RealFeel temperature is 41 deg. C (91 deg. F) and humid? Help. :(

  58. It's true.... the look away pose is a must have on all fashion blogs... I do it because I'm too embarrassed to look at the camera... even though I don't seem to have any shame in anything else I do.. or wear.. or say. Whatever. It's my favorite.

  63. Is that blouse see-trough? You can't see it on camera, but I just think you can see though it... but do you feel ok knowing that at any breeze someone can know exactly what you feel? :)) I love transparency, I'm just a bit afraid of what it would really look like, I want to avoid as much as I can a trashy look.
