Accessorizing for parent-teacher conferences

Yesterday, I bought these earrings at Forever 21. I'm thinking of wearing them to parent-teacher conferences later this week.

Does wanting to wear bejeweled, chandilier earrings when I meet with my kids' teachers mean I don't get out enough, or just that I'm fabulous?

confession: i totally dress like a saturday afternoon hooker when i drop my son off at school and work while sipping java at the coffee shop near his school... well, a saturday afternoon hooker who wears clothes. point being, i play dress up on the MWF that i know i'll be out because i don't have a life and we never get out.

so, work those earrings and feel free to delete my rambling comment.

I didn't know there was a distinction between a "Saturday afternoon" hooker and an "all the other time hooker." The Internet is full of learning.

It means you're fabulous obviously and that you are in denial that you are getting old and still find your youth at forever21...
Kidding. I shop there too.

Until Forever 21 starts carrying Botox, my feet are firmly planted in reality!

Earrings? What are those?

You know...they're like mini-mobiles for the baby on your hip.

I would totally wear those, IF they didn't clash with my fleece sweatpants. I guess maybe I could not wear the sweatpants, but then the teacher would fall over in a dead faint from the shock. And one thing you do NOT want is to be blamed for killing your kid's teacher.

But! We were talking about you. Wear 'em. (WITHOUT SWEATPANTS.)

I may even wear a pair of pants with a zipper. We'll see. I'm not making any promises though.

I think they mean you are hoping you're pretty, dangly, and peach sparkled earrings will be distract the teacher so that you can have time to grab some extra pencils and erasers for homework time.

Exactly! Blind those academics with cheap costume jewelry! Brilliant!

Right? Planning your outfit for parent-teacher conferences a week in advance is pathological.

I'm just impressed that you remember parent-teacher conferences a week in advance.
I usually get reminded the day of.

"Mom, wear something sexy tonight, I'm failing science."

"Mom, wear something sexy tonight, I'm failing science." Finally, some parental advice I can put to use!

No, it's not like Mexican floor cleaner. Just saying.

Independent vendors in Mexico, sell fresh fruit juice in these plain, clear bottles that resemble Fabuloso bottles. Like someone removed the label, cleaned them out and then added the juice.
