I have coveted Romana's AoT outfit since I was eight. I should really make it one of these days. I know it's directly responsible for my love of jewel-tone purple and green together.
In my experience, the "standard" inseam for women's jeans is 32, regardless of size. Short is 30, long or tall is 34. The latter being my holy grail, which I've been ecstatic to find in plain old regular Levis and Lees at Meijer and Wal-Mart the last couple of years. Victoria's Secret also does most of their jeans in all three inseams, but tend not to be cut well for hourglass proportions -- it's that "either snug hips or gappy waistband" problem.
Levi's stretch bootcuts make me all kinds of happy. Actually, ANYTHING that doesn't stop three inches above my ankle makes me all kinds of happy. People can mock 80s slouchy boots and legwarmers all they want, but they were the only thing between me and displaying my high-waters to the world throughout high school!
while I think that any bread product which has a spice like cinnamon and little fruit bits in it damn well better be sweet, or what's the point, really?
I agree with this, except for the part where I kinda think such a thing is already sweet and doesn't need additional sugar. But I'm pretty much always about the option that isn't presented. *g* Cinnamon raisin with just butter, however, sounds divine.
