I compared my Blogger posts and Google+ posts and noticed that when I announce a new Naomi's Fashionable World post on Google+, that my description there might make it difficult to find the post on my blog. So I'm going to try to do better. Sorry if you had any problems, it was my mistake and it was not intentional.
Well, that's out of the way, so now back to the business of fashion. I was looking through some of my old photos the other day, and I noticed these photos here on my blog, in this post. I decided to whip up a Polyvore set illustrating them further. Usually it's the other way around, I do a Polyvore set then I buy the clothes, model them whatever. Not all of my Polyvore sets make it on to Blogger because I might not be happy with the way the set looks, or I can't afford the clothes, or most often it's simply because it's so much easier to make a Polyvore set than to model the clothes, photo myself, or rather get myself photographed, and then get one of these posts up on Blogger.
Anyway, back to the subject of the current photos, there from when I was a sophmore at MSU and from another blog I had which was discontinued for reasons that...well, let's get back to the photos.
The photos illustrate a typical day here at MSU. Set the scene for the first one: I went to my communications course and during class my professor announced that he would like to see me in his office after class. My first thoughts were: uhoh, what did you get yourself into this time Naomi? And I started feeling just a little bit uncomfortable because some of the other students were looking at me, and then I thought to myself hey, you're getting good grades Naomi, what could possibly have gone wrong.
I get to my professor's office. My hand about to grab his office door's doorknob. I take a deep breath. I open the door. "You wanted to see me, professor?" Him: "Yes, Naomi, please take a seat." And what happened was that he loved my paper for the class about the effect television reception has on broadcast TV viewership, and he wanted to talk to me further about it, and if I would mind if he included it in an undergraduate journal that he was editing. Would I mind? Of course not! I did get a little nervous, however, while he gave me the old one two about certain aspects of the paper, such as, the parts my boyfriend (he's such a genius) helped me on. I'm not quite as adept at statistical analysis as Buddy, and I didn't give him a citation in the paper - what would I have put for that: Boyfriend; help on statistics? Nope, but there's no worries, I could have asked a tutor for help at the student media center, too.
After a very stimulating conversation, my professor wanted to take a photo of me. My immediate thought was "OK, this is getting very weird, very fast." But, no, it was for the journal, he explained, so of course I wouldn't mind!
Now, I can't remember if the photo below is from before or after our little meeting or later in the day, nevertheless it illustrates the situation well:
Next stop, I met my boyfriend, we stopped for a bite at the nearest Sparty's, later visiting some mutual friends at their dorm. En route, Buddy snapped some shots of me for my the soon to be discontinued old blog. Here I am excitedly pointing out my new acquisition, a gorgeous pair of Casadei, thigh high, metal heel boots in luscious brown leather, that I bought on Aliexpress.com for less than 30 bucks:

"They remind me of the John Player Cigarette Formula 1 car" Buddy said as I zipped up my boot while getting dressed for the big game between MSU and Air Force. "The what???" I queried Buddy. Buddy explained that a very old race car was painted in black and gold colors because it was sponsored by a cigarette brand whose cigarettes and cigarette boxes had the same colors. Buddy is such a fund of knowledge, and it all made sense: Tom Ford is English, the English love Grand Prix racing, Ford is a car maker's name, even though the John Player Special Formula 1 car was a McClaren as Buddy had explained.
I had hoped to have a Detroit Grand Prix fashion blog entry, and Buddy and I watched the last Detroit Grand Prix briefly, though since I was wearing jeans and a T-shirt I don't think it would have been a very interesting piece. Well, there's always next year.
Now, the immediate problem was that the boots I was zippering were not exactly Tom ford boots. I bought them on, you guessed it, Aliexpress.com!
Although the Aliexpress seller said they are Tom Ford boots, the label on the boots is Tom Ford too, I'm skeptical that $1500 boots could be marked down to $30 or so. Incidentally, I didn't even pay $30! I bought them at the seller's price reduction, during a Chinese New Year sale, plus, I had a big pile of coupons because I am constantly linking Aliexpress stuff to Pinterest and other websites. So the final, total price was $3! That's right, only $3! There were no shipping charges either! Now, I'm not saying every Aliexpress deal would be like this, but at the bottom of the Aliexpress page there are some other boots supposedly by Tom Ford for cheap too. It takes a lot of effort to dig these deals up,and these deals are almost a year old.
Here's the other reason I don't think they are genuine Tom Ford boots:

Now, the immediate problem was that the boots I was zippering were not exactly Tom ford boots. I bought them on, you guessed it, Aliexpress.com!
Here's the other reason I don't think they are genuine Tom Ford boots:
Well, that's enough about the footwear part of my outfit. You can see what I wore in the Polyvore set in this post. I redid this outfit because at first I couldn't find the set with my first version of it, and when I did I couldn't find the leather shorts in the set. I thought the item might have been deleted, so it might have vanished from the set entirely. I guess that's why I haven't won too many contests on Polyvore! Incidentally, if you are interested in what it takes to win a Polyvore contest, my posts directly before these football posts have sets from contest winners, not me, that show what it takes to win - more about that later. Also for online shopping perils, you might want to read the post with the bracelet, a couple posts back.
Back to the outfit; I'm not sure what to call it: airline stewardess gone Go Go dancer, or Go Go dancer working as an airline stewardess, maybe. I was looking through some of my mother's old fashion mags, like Vogue, Harper's Weekly and such, and this outfit definitely has a '60ish vibe to it. Anyway,
I picked up the shorts from yesstyle.com and from the photos you can
judge that they arrived a bit different from the ones in the Polyvore set, but I still like them because they look a little like Balmain shorts what with the added elasticity part, I guess you could call it, near the top. But these have a cute cuff too.
Now, the next question is: what would a fashion obsessed college girl like myself be doing at a NCAA Division I college football game? NCAA Division I should give you a hint - this is not my first time at the rodeo. MSU is football crazed, and when a Professor contacted me about doing an article for the college newspaper, The State News, plus an interview with one of our gridiron heroes, I jumped at the chance. I talked to some U of M at Ann Arbor students about their college newspapers and our, MSU's, student paper is a bit different. Whereas the U of M Ann Arbor paper is largely student run, with of course a faculty adviser, the State News is very tightly controlled by the faculty, which has some advantages because if you know one of the Professors on the advisory board you are a shoe in to get your article published. Nevertheless, girls and football usually don't mix. While most guys know what the fourth down is, most girls know more about who Jane Eyre or Heathcliff is and the twain usually don't meet.
It's a good thing I wandered into this hallway because a couple guys ESPN noticed my predicament and volunteered to help me out. It was very cool hanging out with the ESPN people. I'm not sure I made any valuable connections, but I learned alot from them. For instance, the game announcers aren't even in Spartan stadium, they're in a studio in New York. The only ESPN people who are ever here at Spartan stadium are the on site producers/directors, some technical people, and one or two on field reporters.
A very educational experience, and after this very informative meeting I met up with my photographer in the Spartan locker room:
All of the attention delayed my interview with our Spartan star quarterback Connor Cook. I've never seen Connor on campus, with 25K students that might be the reason still...yet, while I was talking to this very handsome, and of course athletic guy, I couldn't help wondering what it would be like to be a NFL wife, sorry Buddy it wasn't serious! I mean this guy is going to the NFL! He's a first round draft choice and who knows how much money his NFL contract will earn him.
I thought it would be better if I talked to Connor alone, so I bid my photographer farewell and told him I would be back in just a little bit:
Summing up, it was a great experience and I'm hoping to get the chance to meet and interview more members of the team, who, I've learned, may be on their way to the NFL as well.
So that's it, sorry I didn't post this earlier, would you believe it takes me over an hour to get these posts ready for publishing? And what with college and homework, my other blogs, Polyvore, and putting stuff up on the web to get store coupons, my etracurricular activities, I'm plum out of time.
Now, about those Polyvore contests. I did win something, well, not exactly... I came in third in a PPZ lingerie contest, though I'm still waiting for my $20 coupon, which should be coming soon. A lot of work for $20 I would say.
I want to thank everyone or anyone who read this for any or all votes for my sets - keep them coming I need your support, thank you very much.
More good stuff is on the way, check back later.
Catchya later.
Ciao.
