Outfits Of The Yesterdays (Night & Day)

♫: Night and Day - Hot Chip


I can't believe it has been a week since I last posted here. Sorry guys! I have actually been busy working on this blog--it's just that you can't see it, since it has all been on the back end. I have something good (hopefully) coming up soon, though, so sit tight. Soon-ish.You know how I do.

Just a quick note for today. It was recently brought to my attention that you guys can't pin any of my images from this blog on to Pinterest. Uh oh.

Now I love Pinterest, as it provides a rather excellent distraction to the monotony of everyday normal life (if only because I enjoy pinning images of a bike riding John Slattery on to my food pinboard, riiight where he belongs) so when a kind reader pointed out that they were having problems pinning my images from this blog, I decided to investigate. Lo and behold, Flickr apparently added some sort of fancy anti-Pinterest meta tag to certain images a few weeks ago, rendering many pictures un-pinnable.

Without, you know, telling anyone. Thanks, Flickr!

The good news is that it is fixable, but the bad news is that it is going to take some time for me to get all of my images fixed, as I now have to go in and change some of my privacy settings. So bare with me and keep trying. I have already fixed a few of my more recent posts, and will be working on my past posts over this next week.

And, by the way, thank you for considering me pinnable! It means a lot, even if my little browser spellchecker is going completely bonkers over this entire blog post and keeps wanting to change "pinnable" to "pinbball", "unpinnable" to "unwinnable" (which also isn't a real word), and "Flickr" to another word containing the letters f-c-k-r. Unwinnable pinball motherfuckers would make for a very insightful blog post, but I'll have to save that for later.

(And I appreciate that my spell-check apparently has a sense of humor.)

(Oh! And if you're a blogger that is having the same issues with Flickr, this is where I found the fix!)

    That minty breath of fresh air looks so ethereal and dreamy on you! I've been dying for something mint, but everything I've found so far is too green. I like that lighter, sort of seafoamy mint :) You look gorgeous!

    Oh my gosh - that first outfit...I am dying!  The color combination and the detail on the skirt is just divine.  And your dog popping his head through on that other photo is priceless - love it!!

    Oh man, I use Flickr most of the time. I don't get a lot of pins, but still, it kind of sucks that they didn't tell anyone. 
    Anyhow, I love your minty skirt, so awesome

    First outfit rocks, both the color combo and the Jolie-leg-flashing potential of the skirt. Though I am glad you didn't go all aggressive Jolie leg on us...more like demure Jolie leg... Good luck with the pinning situation, remember when blogging was uncomplicated? I don't either...

    Can we be BBFFs (best blogger friends forever)?! You and I have the same sense of humor and wit! I love reading your posts. I was within a few feet of John Slattery in NYC. We were going in to see The Normal Heart on Broadway and he was buying tickets. But I always think of the him as the guy who wanted to be pee'd on in SATC. LOL!

    Oh those Lanvin for H&M shoes are incredible. I wish my store carried stuff like that but it never does. :(
     
    And that ASOS skirt is super sexy! I love the chesnut JCrew blouse with it though - I have one and love it dressed up or down.

    Right? It's only an issue if you have any of your photos listed as private (and not public). Even though I kept my photos private from anyone finding them on Flickr, there were lots of ways to get around it so I could still use my own private photos for my public blog. Not anymore, darn them. :(

    Hahahahaha, WHAT?! Man. If I was within a few feet of John Slattery, I'd...I'd...I don't know what I'd do, but hopefully I wouldn't pee on him. I forgot he was in SATC!

    Thanks Jenn!  The Prada sunnies are the best and IMO so worth it--they're the only sunglasses that don't pitch my huge head.  So comfy, I can't live without them. ♥

    Thanks Whitney! Our H&M in Denver typically doesn't carry much from the designer lines, either--I had to rely on a good friend in another city to grab them for me, whew. :(
