Look Sharp, Sconnie - Midwestern Fashion Nerd, Chronic Over-thinker

Cellulite is in.

Has anybody out there seen Tiny Furniture?
I just finished, and let me tell you - granny panties and cellulite have never seemed so cool.

In fact, I'm pretty certain that I'm never wearing pants again. 

I mean, the self assurance Lena Dunham radiates in her butt-shots is enough to make Victoria Secret models passé, and I'm convinced that slightly-chubby-post-grad is the new Miranda Kerr.

It certainly is more attainable. 


So though I may be wearing pants, I thought that I'd embrace my inner weird stay-at-home-nerd by sporting my fave go-anywhere-do-anything backpack; an accessory of which I was once self-conscious, and to which I now deem it worthy to devote an entire post. 
I am, most truly, in love with this little item. 

At first glance I saw nothing but an almost-Longchamps purse - a half-cool accessory - an off-kilter attempt at normalcy. 
backpack: Longchamp, boots: Etienne Aigner, sweater: Target,  pants: TrippNYC
But now I see perfection. Classic, practical, perfection. 

It is the nearly nerdy cousin of an over-worn arm piece - just "in" enough to be acceptable, just out enough to be me. 

It also carries a 15-inch Macbook pro.
Which is insane and weirdly Mary-Poppin-esque. 
So there's that.
Cheers.

PS: I promise I wrote this post before man repeller's lena tribute. I promise. Great nerds think alike.

    Do you also watch Girls? I couldn't believe how much it was like Tiny Furniture - it's like the extended version of that movie.

    Hahahah, you crack me up :D
    Never watched Tiny furniture, but I think the world is starting to get on the right track. Sexy used to be skinny and with eating disorders, now I'm starting to see how healthy, round butts are getting more attention, nice!
    Oh love that bag! ^^

    haha read the other post first of course, are you throwing your beloved backpack in the air? that's hilarious.
    the first shot is so killer, what a great backdrop, looks crazy in black and white with your stripes!
