My 7 year old daughter is a creative-type. She often asks to use my phone to take pictures. Or my Flip to take video. One day, Olivia wanted to take pictures of me. I was all, “Becuase you think I’m beautiful?” She was all, “Noooooo!” And I was all, “Eh?” And she was all…
Aaaaanywho…
Here is our photo shoot. It was the most enjoyable photo shoot I’ve been on since my trip to Milan with Vogue last spring.
Olivia wanted me to look natural, yet gorgeous. I was all, “TOTALLY, how about this…” *snap*
And then Olivia said she wanted me to smile and turn my head a little and I was all, “Like this?” *snap* I guess so:
And the she was all, “OK. Mom. Just. Act. NATURAL!” I was all, “M’kay… like, TOTALLY!”
And that was it. I guess she got what she was looking for because she was all, “OK. OK. OK. Wait. OK. Heeheeheeeheeegigglegiggle… Here Mom!”
This all reminds me of the time (2daysago) when I bought a cheap t-shirt (atamajorretailcrapstore) and wore it thinkin’ it was so cool (yesterday) and it is, but then a person of a young age (read: I could be her MOTHER) hear me brag talk about my new find and she was all, “Hey! That’s a Miley shirt!”
WHU???!!!
SRSLY?
I had no idea. It was just this cute shirt (inlaundrynopic) with a mic on it that I hope to bedazzle someday. And next thing I know I am a 37 year old mother of three buyin’ MYOWNSELF a Miley Cyrus brand shirt. The stores should have lights and sirens to warn us. I mean, if I’m gonna buy MYOWNSELF a Disney pop-princess brand t-shirt… I should KNOW I am buying a ever-lovin’-Disney-pop-princess t-shirt.
It’s so cool tho.
Furthermore… what’s done is done. I can’t turn back time… *cue Cher* neither for me nor the shirt. I hate aging, justsoyouknow. The best thing I can do now is ask Santa for a Bedazzler for Christmas. Ya know. Cuz THAT’s age-appropriate.

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…

LOL… I know exactly the shirt. My daughter Jasmine has it, she’s 11. LOL… sorry, it is really cute though. And lemme tellya, those shirts are SMALL so, if it fit you and you can wear it, MORE POWER TO YA, Girlfriend!! Go on wit yer bad self!
My Bedazzler is the single greatest chunk of plastic to enter my life. As long as you don’t bedazzle a pink skull and cross bones on your new shirt, you’ll prob be ok. Mostly.
Olivia took such great pictures of you!! I love that you two had some time together. (You probably should have worn the shirt:)
OK, I have to tell you. I bought 3 Miley shirts today… yup I did… and I’m 47 that is FORTY-SEVEN… YUP! I knew they looked so small so I bought meself an XXL which looks like a small to me! So, I thought the prices were reasonable: $10.00, $7.00 and $8.00 and they are already bedazzled!!!!! I almost peed myself when reading this… (my shirts are still in my van.. have to sneak them in after hubby leaves for a ride in his truck tomorrow…) so that I can say I had them in the back of my closet… Have a great time wearin your shirt!!!!
You look totally young enough to wear Miley tshirts AND Twilight Tshirts! Just wondering…did your daughter drink coffee, or just you?
Oh ha! That damn Miley Cirus clothing line almost sucked me in too until I realized it was Miley Cirus. You’ve got more balls then me girl – but I have to say; cute shirt. I know the one your speak of and I’m sure you and your bad self totally rock it!
