Towel Day for Hitchhikers


Let me prepare you for a shocking fact: I'm not a trendsetter.


These are the first pair of skinny jeans I bought. Yep, I warned you!
I just didn't warm to them for ages, and when I tried them on, I felt my legs are turning numb they were so tight - even in that two minutes in the changing room.
But a few days ago - drumroll - I found these in Takko, which is a shop for 40-something mums and their preteens, usually located beside hypermarkets. I'm classy like that.
Anyway, the main thing is that they are really comfortable - maybe because of the 40-something mum fit. They were very cheap too - to fit the budget of 40-something mums.
And mine.


Don't I look like these cats?


Jeans: Takko, Trainers: Chinese shop, T-shirt: Zara, Cami: don't remember, 
Bracelets: H&M, Earrings: Brigitte Bijou

So where does the towel come into picture, you might ask? Right here.


Chic? No. Flattering? No. Trendy? Maybe, if you colour block it...
But it's dead useful, just read it in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. In this book Douglas Adams describes, among other very useful tips for space survival, how many things a towel can be useful for - May 25th, Towel Day, is the celebration of this wonderful and absolutely hilarious trilogy in five parts. (Here's the Wikipedia entry for more info on Towel Day - basically you need to carry a towel around. :) If you haven't read them, give the books a try, you won't regret it. Or watch the film - starring Zooey Deschanel as charming and funny as ever. Also, be aware that this trailer is not work appropriate - unless you don't mind laughing out loud behind your computer and having everyone stare at you.



Update: It looks like I'm off for the weekend to a possibly webless place, so sorry if I don't reply to your comments and don't check out your blogs in the meantime! Have a great weekend, lovely readers! :)
