Today's installment of Guess the Blogger Pose actually stays true to its name and actually begs that you guess this blogger pose. While sticking to what I say I will do and actually doing it seems a departure but my typical behavior, some things haven't changed: as per usual, the installments been shot by Naomi and features photos of me. One more twist though: I'm walking.And walking...
And...well...what do you know, still walking! Without having to say much else, do you think you can guess this blogger pose? Before I reveal the answer, I think right now is as good a time as any to share a small anecdote directly related to the outfit in question. Upon exiting my building to have these photos taken, I fell into the proverbial laps of several different recognizable faces. It was like walking down deaths row--see what I did just there, cue my title--but better. First, my doorman looked at me, looked away, looked at me again and remarked: "Miss Repella! Where you going looking like that?" I laughed and continued on until I came across three boys, all brothers, the children of my mother's close friend. One is ten years old. He's never spoken a word to me despite my incessant requests nearly every family gathering for hugs, kisses, a high five and maybe a chance to play Wii with him. On this day however, he followed his older brother's lead, who shook his head when he looked at me and then finally remarked, "you look so weird."
It was a grand mission repelled.
Great! Now that that's out of the way, let's talk answers. Have you an idea? How about now? Come on. This is an easy one. Fine, I'll just tell you...
And while there is no denying that home girl has got some serious style up her tailored sleeve...
And a penchant for neon...one not unlike my own...
I just want to know...
Where are you always going, Carolina?
...And can I come with you?
Come on, please? I always look both ways before crossing the street.

Cute post idea. Honestly though, this pose could be any number of bloggers. I think your wacky poses are probably the most original. Love the bag and wedges. =)

ReplyDeleteYou are so clever, by the way. ;)

Can I come with? Looks like you're headed some place awesome wearing that! I LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR OUTFITS. This one is a little less Repelling and more Propelling. But I love it anyways because, of course, you're wearing it! And better for you to be wearing it than... not wearing it. We don't need any nudies walking around the city!
ReplyDeletex
oh god this made my nights, I guessed it straight away.

ReplyDeletewhat a funny idea! i'm so glad i found your blog, the mix of fashion and humor is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHAHA this is great!
ReplyDeletehttp://fashionindie.com/
My question is unrelated to guessing the blogger. (Although I have to say you could have been many a fashion bloggers since lots o' them photograph themselves walking. I think it makes your legs look skinny and/or toned.) Here's my question: how does a recent college grad afford a Valentino bag?
ReplyDeleteHA I thought it was Rumi from Fashiontoast too!!
ReplyDeleteI love this. And I love that bag! And dress. And Hat..and ok. you've got me. I love the outfit.

ReplyDeletehilarious...love your post
ReplyDeleteeileenerb, If I remember correctly from some posts ago, the Valentino bag was a gift from them, the Valentino people.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am still a student (a grad student, I get paid but very little) and every penny I make I save for shoes... trust me, its hard but it can be done!!! This year alone I have managed to save up for 4 fabulous pairs: YSL, Chanel, Givenchy & Louboutin (ALL ON SALE OF COURSE, except the Loubis)
loving your beige wedges and that dress is just so phenomenal

Girl, you may be a man repeller, but I'm straight up falling for you and your irreverent attitude.
ReplyDeleteWill you please, please do Rumi of FashionToast's squat pose next? It's so disarmingly hilarious to see clothes modeled in a shitting-in-the-woods-style. You doing it, well, then you'd have my heart forever.
HAHAHAAHAHHA
ReplyDeleteperfect article !
OMG YOU'RE HILARIOUS!! HAHA love you <3
ReplyDeleteBag + wedges + sheer = perfection
ReplyDeleteI can't be the only one who would do twirls of excitement at the pieces in your closet.

ReplyDeleteThey thought this outfit was weird? I love it and it's actually pretty tame repelling-wise IMHO.

Makes me bag hungry for Valentino..GIVE ME VALENTINO
ReplyDeletehttp://somefashionclout.blogspot.com
I love this outfit from the shoulders down. The mix of light colors is GENIUS! However, I do feel your hat and sunglasses were a little too heavy for such a light, summery look. Rockin' the Chris Benz x Alejandro Injelmo wedges though!
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog thanks to Glamour Magazine and I'm hooked! you're so funny and stylish!!! ♥ love your wedges, the hair and that Valentino bag!
ReplyDeletesorry baby,
ReplyDeletethis one is a little more vamp than repel...
just saying...
the cut of the dress and the peek of an underthing...
the shape of the shoe...
kind of hot.
