Channeling

Shirt free from swap, Old Navy pants, Charlotte Russe booties. The necklaces and belt were gifts from various family members

Can you figure this one out? The hair is the biggest hint. If not, the shoes should help (...they're blue suede)...

Little known Kayla fact: I love Elvis music. Lilo & Stitch came out when I was a sophomore or junior in high school and I remember sitting there in the theater thinking, "This is the coolest soundtrack I've ever heard." I picked it up a few days later. When my aunt and uncle found out how much I enjoyed that soundtrack they gave me two Elvis cds (CDs! How quaint). And I've been a fan ever since. Devil in Disguise and Burning Love are still two of my most favorite songs ever (also, MELT).

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog..

The casual wear of Elvis's day was not basketball shorts or jeans (how novel). Even pictures of him lounging around have him in slacks. I took a pair of my old charcoal gray work pants and skinnied them up. I've worn them once since leaving the work force when Stinky was born and I hated that outfit. A quick sew job and I think I might actually get some real wear out of them.

I really loved this outfit. Also, an old guy riding a motorcycle through the Target parking lot liked my outfit enough to pull over and tell me so. He especially loved my shoes. So that pretty much made my day right there.

And, I kind of feel like if you're going to try and channel Elvis then you have to attempt the lip curl. I have come to the conclusion that I cannot do it. I have embarrassing photographic evidence.

I share because I care.
