Girls I do Adore.

I recently took my first trip to Tooele, UT. I have lived in this state my entire life but I've never traveled to the mysterious land of Tooele. I decided to check the place out and thought my best chance for a photo would be the D.I. I was wandering through the women's section when I saw her. The women I beheld was a one item knock out. You know when one item makes the whole outfit, like BAM!



IDA is wearing a bronze leather trench coat. She has it gently tied around her frame. This jacket is classic. It can be worn indoors or in mild weather as well as in the cold winter.

Here is our conversation. It was in both Spanish and English but I've translated it to English.

M.E.T. – Oh, Hi. I love your jacket you look really good in it. I run a fashion blog and I was wondering if I could take your photo?

IDA – Oh you like my jacket? Do you want it?

Husband – Yea, let her have it.

M.E.T – No, no umm.. No I just want to take your photo. Is that ok?

IDA – Of course.

M.E.T. – So, where did you get your jacket?

IDA – Here, I buy everything here I have so many crazy clothes that I bought here.

M.E.T – What are you looking for today?

IDA – Braziers, I found this nice black one.

IDA – Can you mail me those pictures?

M.E.T – Okay, do you want to give me your address?

Husband – You better just come to the house.

IDA – Have you had lunch yet? You should just come over.

M.E.T. – Oh … Well I'm actually working right now but that's very nice. I can email you those pictures.

IDA – We don't have a computer. Can you just mail those? Are you sure you don't want to come over?

M.E.T – I don't think I can, but I will mail them to you.

IDA – Ok, thanks.

M.E.T – Thank You for wearing that great jacket.

Husband – You should just give her the jacket.

IDA – I don't think it will fit her.

M.E.T. – No, no I don't want the jacket I think it's meant for you to have the jacket.

IDA – I like you necklace… Can I have it?

M.E.T – This green one? Well … Yea, OK. I think this is a perfect exchange, ok here.

It's moments like this that having a blog that makes you interact with others is truly worth it.

This is a delightful post. I love that you use a Jay-Z reference to title a post about an old lady with a walker at the Toole D.I. You should've taken the coat.
