I don’t know if you’re aware of this but I’m a Momma who’s proud the way she looks. The best thing about that is I do it affordably. Meaning, I don’t dip into my kids’s college fund. With that fondness and vigor on this particular niche, Bargain Styling was born. A blogging topic that suits me perfectly, hence I can do this blogging job with my eyes closed 
. Anyhooo, if you are wondering what that does this have to do with that awful picture you are trying not to stare at, well let me tell you. On April 12th, I wrote about how ugly it is and begged fabulous Momma’s like me to please stay away from this Shortalls or Dungarees. I was particularly appaled that OLD NAVY of all places is selling it. Well. apparently not everyone(oh imagine that..LOL) stumbled upon it coz my life flashed before my eyes last Saturday. So while S was looking for a battery for the lawn mower, me, C, and the baby were looking at seeds that we’re going to plant in my garden, when this woman walked into the store wearing Dungarees with sneakers.
Oh My Gawd. I almost fainted. I wanted to go to her so badly and start with my plethora of style jargons. I wanted to introduce her to(watch out, links ahead..LOL) smocked tops, belted tunics, wedges and heels, polka-dot dresses, bold prints, multi-print skirts, LBD’s, the classic trouser look for under $100, frilly blouses, and even just a regular tee with jeans, and that during winter you can definitely wear a dress/skirt with a pair of knee-high boots, and so on and so forth. My superficiality, or vanity, whatever you want to call it was in an active mode. BUT of course I didn’t wanna get a beat down from a stranger who probably couldn’t care less whether I’m alive or not, let alone my unsolicited advice on being stylish so I just minded my own business and went on with my seed-searching task.
*PS: I wasn’t really going to faint, I have a flair for the dramatics so just ignore my blabbering mouth

They’re selling those at the BX too. I think they’re ugly as well.
I haven’t seen ‘em at the PX we go too so Halleluyah!..LOL
I still have my ON overalls from college! I wear them when I’m kicking around outside or painting. Have you seen the cute skirtalls? I have those too, lol.
Style is all subjective, whatever floats the boat!
Mare, you’re gonna give me a heart attack..LOL
i have never never worn overalls–they’re ugly on me! would rather wear minis (LOL)
naku, disaster indeed talaga yang overalls na yan! matindi pa sa pagiging Jologs eh!
but anyhow, baka naman utility worker (carpenter ba or painter kaya?) yung Ale kaya ganun ang get-up nya.
Hayy I love shopping. I am in the process of updating my wardrobe & like you I’ve saved 50% or more on clothes/accessories on Ebay.
re: dungarees
Oh dear, guilty as charged! I loved them when I was in uni hehe
I’ve never tried one before. It just doesn’t suit my kind of frame. I remember it became a fad in high school and I wanted one but I realized I won’t look good in it ‘coz of my hips. So I never got one.
Thanks for sharing your flickr photos. Wow, you are definitely a hip mom. I love your style of dressing. You’re good in matching clothes, accessories and shoes. Very nice!
I wear those! Not in public but there are advantages to them and I won’t go into detail. My pair of ON overalls is sooo ratty now. They have paint and all kinds of junk on them. Hehe.
