I don't know if any of you have watched 'You, Me and Dupree' but it's a romantic comedy starring Owen Wilson, Kate Hudson, and another guy whose name escapes me. Anyway. In the movie Owen Wilson's character talks about "your ness" which is actually your name with -ness on the end. But in actuality it is your spirit or your essence. Well, it really doesn't make much sense in the way I've used it but I'm not sure that adorableness is a real word, but by adding -ness I've given the word adorable more meaning in reference to the overalls...I know, I know, I'm not making much sense. But once I start talking about The Adorable-ness of Overalls it will all be clear.
So today I was putting pictures into a scrapbook (I'm kinda slacking in that department) and came across a picture of Greyson is overalls...and it got me thinking...Overalls are the most adorable article of clothing, not to mention versatile. First off, for instance, both a boy and a girl can wear the same pair of overalls (of course not at the same time - well, unless they are both small, in which case it is possible, however uncomfortable). Sure they have to be a unisex color and can't have any embellishments. But over all, overalls (ha, doesn't that just make you smile) are a unisex item. Secondly, they act as both a belt and suspenders, which is very handy when you have a child who lack both hips and a butt. You don't have to pin overalls so that they won't fall off as your child walks across the room because they WON'T fall off! Amazing! And lastly, there is just something about overalls (probably their -ness) that makes them super duper cute! I mean, you could put a pair of overalls on the ugliest person and they would be so much cuter. In other words, overalls are like beergoggles...minus the hangover the next morning, and the coyote ugly lying next to you! It's genius.
I was thinking just now, about farmers and well, there are some who really aren't the best looking but whenever I see a farmer in their overalls I can't help but think (to myself) "Aww, how cute!" You know? Am I crazy? Probably.
I want to go out and buy a pair right now!
Are those not the cutest overalls?
You're so right!!! I so agree on the whole bibs thing- especially when it's a dress : ) That, though, cannot be unisex... well, I guess it could... eww. You write so good too, what are you talking about? And I don't know if it's cuz we're sisters, or what, but I follow ya.
