What My Outfit Is Not Telling You

trench: Gap, jacket: CAbi, shirt and skirt: mommed, boots: Simply Vera,
earrings: Nordstroms, belt: Target

This outfit says 'warmth and comfort', does it not?  That's what it says to me, at least.  It tells me "Thank you for wearing me on such a perfectly chilly and drizzly day."  (You're welcome, by the way.)

But what it's not telling you is more important.

It's not telling you that today, I had a baby that looked like a Purple People Eater with my accompanying chest to match.  It's not telling you that I had to repeatedly explain this phenomenally bright purple color on my baby's mouth and recount how the unfortunate accident happened.  It's also not telling you that people were doubling over laughing at me....or at my baby...I don't know which, but I do know it was embarrassing.  And lastly, it's not telling you that it feels like a beast gnawing on me each time I feed my baby.

Signed,
Nursing Mother

P.S. Beware of the use of Gentian Violet, or you might find yourself with a little Purple People Eater.
