While wearing these jeans the other day, Kevin asked me the funniest question: Whatever happened to skinny jeans? I had to laugh out loud. For one, it obviously takes him a bit to catch on, but also his sense of sadness with those jeans no longer being a part of my jean collection was comical.Continue reading Whatever Happened to Skinny Jeans?
The Color Combo I Can’t Say No To
There’s this color combo that I can never say no to: yep, it’s black and white and red all over! The moment I saw this jacket in the store window at H&M, I went hunting. I couldn’t find it anywhere. Then, in the changing room, there was one sitting there discarded. I aksed, Can IContinue reading The Color Combo I Can’t Say No To
Style Stories No. 23: My Sweet Cowboy Boots
Lately, I’ve been able to deviate from my usual sneaker wearing days. Sweet cowboy boots have entered my life. Somehow for me, cowboy boots are as comfortable as a pair of sneakers, and like my vast sneaker collection, my cowboy boots are growing in number as well. First, I got these super cool black, gold,Continue reading Style Stories No. 23: My Sweet Cowboy Boots
Style Stories No. 22: Rather Boring OOTDs
Overall, I’d say my outfits all week were rather boring. On Monday and Tuesday there were no students, so I went for comfortable in jeans. Then Wednesday, I over did it on the comfort by trying out my new off-the-truck leather joggers. Thursday was a homerun–it was such a great outfit that I turned itContinue reading Style Stories No. 22: Rather Boring OOTDs
Style Stories No. 21: Slip Skirts
This week–despite its harrowing turn of events causing no students at school Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday–I decided to wear slip skirts. I own four, so one of them was doubled up. There’s something odd about a slip skirt for me… I can’t quite put my finger on it. I just usually feel a little awkwardContinue reading Style Stories No. 21: Slip Skirts
Style Stories No. 20: Combat Boots All Week
I LOVE the items I pick up at secondhand swaps. For example, these Zara boots, still on sale on the site for $114, I picked up for under $13!! And they had never been worn; they were basically brand spankin’ new! To add my personal touch to them, I swapped out the black laces andContinue reading Style Stories No. 20: Combat Boots All Week
Snake Blazer in the Afternoon
Yesterday I featured the exact snake blazer but for a trip to the market in the morning. Now on this past Sunday–that will take you through the morning (yesterday’s post), afternoon (today’s post), and night(tomorrow’s post) –I’ve styled the snake blazer in preparation for meeting someone for an afternoon coffee. (Although this entire snake blazerContinue reading Snake Blazer in the Afternoon
Style Stories No. 19: Upcycling My Clothes
I’m at it again, trying out new photo editing styles, but still telling my Style Stories. I made it easier on myself this week. I set Remota, my tripod, camera, and remote control) up in a library classroom, and each day I’d hop back there to get an outfit of the day (#ootd) pic. IContinue reading Style Stories No. 19: Upcycling My Clothes
Style Stories No. 18: Work Outfits, October 7-11
In an attempt to keep things real over here on Kremb de la Kremb, I’ve been trying to post some of the outfits I really wore. I used to post a series of Style Stories where I’d highlight each work day’s outfit, and in addition, I would rate each outfit out of a score ofContinue reading Style Stories No. 18: Work Outfits, October 7-11

Wonder Woman
I’m pretty sure we all each have our own Wonder Woman story. I know I have many, but today I am going to tell you about my very first Wonder Woman story. This story is from when I was around ten years old. I am guessing ten because I had already started babysitting, and thisContinue reading Wonder Woman
Style Stories: Forever 21, Oversize Me!
Oversize me! Sometimes I just want to wear oversize everything. It’s so comfy. It’s definitely on the sloppier side, but oh, it’s so cozy. Like this sweater for example, in a very soft chenile, is way too big–I almost got the medium but then was like no I want large! And these pants, very brandContinue reading Style Stories: Forever 21, Oversize Me!
