Too Sexy?

I went over to my boyfriend's house this weekend dressed like this. Not too different from my normal attire. But I knew something was odd when his parents started whispering and motioned for my bf to go into the kitchen, where they quietly mumbled some stuff in Chinese. Strange, I thought, because usually they talk quite loud. But I didn't think much of it and went back to watching Iron Man...

Mackage 'Dawn' leather jacket (here, similar 'Hannah' on sale); American Apparel circle scarf (here);
Old Navy waffle sweater sz XL (Canada; USA); H&M eletric blue faux leather shorts (not online);
HoH for Pretty Polly suspender tights (here, next on my list, cute bow version);
Aldo 'Doiley' boots (here); Balenciaga 'City' black with RH (here)

That night, my bf told me his parents had told him to tell me to not dress that sexy. I LOL'd! Not because they thought I was cold in tights, but because they thought my bf would get angry and beat up guys looking at me! I laughed so hard! "Why couldn't you have worn normal tights???", he said. Hahahaha. I had a good laugh; He didnt.

Good thing my bf doesn't actually have a problem with me wearing suspender tights! Clearly, because he took these pictures for me :) :)


Too bad this picture is blurry, cuz I really like it...




Close-up

Actually, I'm not sure if my bf's mom has a problem with me wearing with these tights because she took pictures of me in my outfit before we left for dinner. LOL. Maybe she's going to show her friends how I dress? I don't know!

Have you ever gotten weird remarks about the way you dress?

  4. HAHAHA! That's so funny. Parents just don't understand. I think I'm to scared to still wear my suspender tights around my dad! I love them though!

  5. lol, your post made me giggle =)  When I wear my suspender tights I cover them with a bag or a scarf because I don't want my parents to see.  I'm not sure how they would react so I just think for the worst and just hide them.  I havent worn my suspender tights around my bf's parents.  I usually change into my sweat pants when I'm over there.  Good thing they didn't see it.

    I have only positive remarks about the suspender tights so far.  Not any negatives yet =)

  9. Haha. I find the tights conversation very interesting. I sometimes where them with outfits and get more comments when I wear garters, fishnets or thigh-highs than when I go bare-legged. ...Even though I'm covering more skin.

  15. haha this post made me laugh. First of all. you look great. I love the blue shorts. Your style is really unique! People always used to say I wear tops that are too low cut :/ not true. Funny thing is, the comments always came from my friends that wore really short skirts - what's the difference!? Anyway - I continue to wear the things I like and ignore other peoples comments. Frankly it isn't anyone elses business :L
    Great post, I am now following your blog :)

  18. Oh no!  That is kinda funny!  For some reason my extended family (like cousins and aunts and uncles) always makes a big deal that I tend to dress on the dressier side and wear high heels.  I have yet to go to a family function when they don't say anything about my shoes!  lol

  22. To comment or not to comment...hmmm???  Guys looking is fine, but I have nearly gotten into fights over guys making rude comments.  A girl should be able to dress how she pleases without being harrassed, but we have a lot of loud-mouthed oafs in DC.

    I think the answer to your post title is not too, but very...and since you're such a pretty girl, that's true almost no matter what you wear.  However, if you want to stay on your BF's parent's good side, I guess regular tights around them is the way to go.  That way you're still being true to your style without antagonizing them.  Unless you want to antagonize them. LOL!

    I tried to comment on another post, but blogger was acting up.  I wanted to say that the blue shorts really pop.  That was a great color choice.  Also, what you wrote about the sizing reminded me of something dumb I did as a teenager when my GF was wearing shorts she'd outgrown.  We were going bowling, but since her backside was showing I refused to take her.  It was all amusing until I jokingly asked her father if he let his daughters leave the house like that.  HE.BLEW.UP!!!  He was yelling, she was yelling and crying and I felt like a complete idiot.  I wasn't taking her bowling in those shorts, but I didn't mean to start such a fight.  We went for a drive instead--I had a lot of apologizing to do.

  28. I've worn anything and everything in front of my mum and she doesn't are at all. Probably because in the end, she knows I'm still way more conservative than most girls out there. Like I'd never have my tits or ass hanging out!

  29. Haha, my parents don't care though! Just my bf's parents- but they weren't even worried for ME lol.

  41. Cute tights! Asos sells different versions of these and they have been on my "to buy" list for the longest time. I never bought them though because I wasn't sure how I would wear it. You look great in them!
