I never thought I would NOT enjoy a Frankie Beverly concert but last night I didn't. The acoustics inside the Nokia Theater were horrendous. It sounded more like garbled noise than music and I could barely make out the words to my favorite songs, which totally through off my singing. Ugh. By the time they did "I wanna thank you," my favorite song, I'd had it and was ready to go home to bed. I had the time of my life at last years concert and was on a cloud for days after. Anyway, seeing all the fashion my peoples put on last night has made me want to go shopping in the worse way. I saw the most FIERCE distressed/destroyed jeans I have ever seen and I must find them or a comparable pair. Sooo HOT, these britches were. Plus, prior to going out I had a surprisingly tough time trying to find something in my closet to wear last night. I just knew I had something decent but I was oh so wrong. It was then that I'd realized I haven't been shopping for "going out" clothes in ages. So I ended up wearing my trusty old reliable heather pink dress, which is still a winner apparently. On my way out of the venue I got a lot of stares, smiles and head nods. Then one guy said "You are wearing that dress, baby girl." Baby girl. HA. It made me smile though...and I'd needed that. Another dude told me I had nice "stems." Aaaah, good ol validation.
After the show Bilal was playing at the Conga Room with free admittance to Maze ticket holders. But I was beat from having worked all day and being up since 6am, so I bid thee all well, kissed & hugged my folks and split. I wanted to go to the farmers market this morning so I'd planned to get into bed early but I just had to find those distressed jeans. Down the internet hole I went at midnight and by the time I stopped searching it was 2am. I found these though:

I hope they fit. You can never tell with online size charts. Except for Ann Taylor.com. Everything is true to size and fits perfectly. You can't go wrong with their stuff. Anyway, these are nowhere NEAR as nice as the ones ol girl at the concert was wearing. But they'll do.
