Laura Jane is Totally Glamorous!

WOULD YOU FIRST-DATE ME????
(headband by Thelma Design; coral top by J.Crew; high-waisted Cheap Mondays; vintage gold bangle; Michael Kors boots)

I am super proud and pleased to report that I've been featured on Smitten, Glamour magazine's surprisingly killer sex & relationships blog. Myself and twenty-one other totally cute fashion bloggers all offered up our respective takes on what constitutes the perfect First Date outfit; mine is seen above. To quote myself:

The first-date look is all about striking the perfect balance: You should look coquettish but not tarty, casual but not schlumpy, elegant but playful. Jeans, a minorly-dressy top, and a focal-point accessory is always a safe bet. In my opinion, any first date worth its salt should conclude with sneaking and/or climbing in somewhere, so you gotta come prepared--no heels for me!

As awesome as it is to be featured on Smitten along with so many awesome girls, I must admit that this whole business really rubs salt (and rubbing alcohol, and citric acid) in my "I'll never go on a date again" wound. Oh, wellski. Here's hoping.

Oh! And here are my two other favorite date looks from the feature:

Seen above is Stacy from La Boudoir, who looks totally sweet and chill and like the kind of girl who dudes date instead of dating wackola me.

And here is Riikka of Only Shallow, who a) looks strikingly like Maggie Gyllenhaal, and b) manages to pull off a hyper-saccharine vintage-girly thing without looking costumey at all.

laura does look like a hot honey.

Say something so insightful and witty, it will blow us away. (No pressure.)

Got something to say? We'd love to hear it! Name, email and "type in the weirdo drunken text" thingie are all required to comment; don't worry, we won't email you or anything, we just want to make sure you're not an evil spambot. Keeping in mind the good-times mentality we like to keep going here, we've worked hard to keep NOGOODFORME.COM as fun as possible. We welcome all kinds of comments, but insults/abuse/general bitchery are not tolerated. In other words, we put the smackdown on evil troll posts. If you want to be a hater, please go elsewhere. Now, as Salt 'N Pepa say, "Only the sexy people..."
