I guess that's why they call it the blues ...

This week Jane's Shiny T Tuesday fashion prompt is ... "Something borrowed ... something blue".

Now I live in a household that is male dominated ... I am in fact the only female ... and that includes the dog ... which leaves the chances of me "borrowing" clothes rather minimal.

I considered "borrowing" one of Hubby's blue business shirts ...after all he has more than enough ...


but that would have been more appropriate for last week's Pin Up prompt.

So I decided instead to ask Master 16 ... being the resident fashionista ... to "style" me for this week's fashion post.  He could choose what I was to wear ... provided it was blue ... and it didn't belong to me.

No sooner had I donned HIS shirt and HIS jeans and HIS jacket and MASTER 13's beanie and I was overcome with an overwhelming wave of teenage attitude and angst.

The urge to loll around on the lounge could not be denied.


The insolent expression could not be removed from my face.


There was an uncontrollable urge to put my feet up ... ignore everyone around me ... and text people.


It was suddenly imperative that I shoot as many people as possible ... and congratulate myself on my exemplary kill streak.


I paused only long enough to check my Facebook status ... my Instagram followers ... my Snap Chat updates ... and my Viber messages.


Before I realised I was hungry ... again.
