I don’t read fashion and beauty magazines. I do, however, watch Gossip Girl when I have the time. (Don’t judge). This show gives me my dose of weekly self-esteem torture. It works just as great as a fashion magazine, if you ask me. Every episode of that show makes me wonder if Serena and Blair are really well-dressed 24-7. Or if they sweat. Also, are they impeccably dressed when they work out? More importantly, do they sweat when they work out?
Because this is what I wore when I duked it out with the elliptical machine last night:

Yes, that would be my thrifted Tsumori Chisato dress with Chuck Taylors. No designer sweat pants or anything like that because frankly, I’m too lazy to change into exercise clothes. Does that really matter when you work out in your own home? As long as you have comfortable clothes on, you’re good to go, right? Right?
I can explain the Tsumori Chisato dress, though. We just arrived from a fro-yo date and I was too lazy to change clothes before doing cardio. And no, I did not wear Chuck Taylors to the date. I am not that adventurous.
So as it stands, I am too lazy to be part of the Upper East Side. Oh well.

Blair (AKA Leighton) wears Spanx! That made me so so so so happy! Yes she’s tiny and beautiful, but even she needs a little help…yay!

i can’t resist Gossip Girl even though they shatter my self-esteem at a weekly basis.
Nov 30, 2010 @ 15:29:27
I can relate. :D
Nov 29, 2010 @ 12:37:08
looks like something my current hero Yolandi Visser would wear
Nov 30, 2010 @ 15:30:45
Oh, Die Antwood. She is fun, isn’t she? :)

We’re opposite, I don’t watch Gossip Girl but I have lots of fashion magazines. That’s a nice dress as I can see from the first picture
Nov 30, 2010 @ 15:31:05
I can’t afford them magazines. Haha
Nov 29, 2010 @ 16:01:26
I love watching Gossip Girl as well. It’s my guilty pleasure.
That’s a gorgeous dress. I wish I could look that good working out. I’m too lazy to change out of my pj’s while working out!
Nov 30, 2010 @ 15:31:31
Oh, I do PJ working out, too. :D
Nov 29, 2010 @ 18:23:17
Oh Meream! Blair and Serena have a host of people following them around with make up, designer clothes, and blow dryers… and normal people do not!! I wear ‘whatever’ when I’m exercising. It’s usually pyjamas (wake up, brush teeth, get on treadmill/yoga mat). Or whatever I’m already wearing that day as long as it’s comfortable. I think you look absolutely adorable, and if you don’t sweat while working out, well then.. what’s the point of doing it at all?
Nov 30, 2010 @ 15:32:07
This is my working out strategy, too, in terms of clothes. :D
Nov 29, 2010 @ 18:50:12
You are so cute =)
Nov 29, 2010 @ 23:44:16
Hi Meream! *waving* It’s looking snazzy over here!
Nov 30, 2010 @ 15:32:19
Hullo!
*waves back*
Nov 30, 2010 @ 02:43:03
i feel the same way – i’m too lazy to look good while working out cus frankly, at the end of the workout my hair is all out of place and frazzly, i’m sweating bullets, and my face is red. so who cares! haha!
Nov 30, 2010 @ 15:32:50
Haha!
I can relate to the sweating bullets part.
