Swampass Science

TW: blood & sweat

is he eating a marshmallow? I want a marshmallow… 

Despite my firm “not shopping” stance I have ordered 5 different undergarments to science out the whole Disney Parks Swampass situation when I’m there later this month.

So far I’ve ordered a pair of Knix, a pair of Thinx, a pair of Cooling ThighSociety shorts, a pair of UnderSummers and a pair of Drirelease TomboyX boxers, I’ve also ordered a pair of bandlettes for the non-undershorts times.

Knix and Thinx are technically period panties but I’m operating under ‘liquid is liquid’ an if it absorbs blood it should absorb sweat, right?

“But Erin” you say “you’re only going to have 3 park days!”

Yup, but (and since we are really oversharing right now) I usually change clothes halfway through the day because I’m a SWEATY BITCH and I like to be comfortable.

I will also be in Austin and Lubbock Texas, so I’ll try stuff out there as well.

SO. what else should I be trying? I prefer shorts since I like wearing skirts and dresses at Disney for air-flow but I’m willing to try non-shorts as well.

I feel like I should add a couple more Disney days… 😂

I’m not the only one with crotch temperature on the brain. The Bloggess is also tackling the science… Read it! (The science of crotches)

I love her.

what I wore the day of my going away taco party when I left my last fuck at home

I am completely in love with the way I feel and look today. when I went to bed last night it was after eating something that left me so bloated I looked like I was 7 months pregnant and I was worried about fitting into the outfit I had very carefully curated for today.

my coworkers are having a taco party for me- remember how I was freaking out about how to tell them that I was leaving? they knew. they all knew because they’d signed a poster for me which was presented to me at our company holiday party.

before the company sold and we could wear jeans to work this outfit would have been a solid go-to for me, I love jeans and blazers. I’d like to dress like Samantha Bee every day.

annnyways, taco party outfit.

jeans. duh. after today I have 6 days left here, and I’m pretty sure I’m going to wear what I want. which is probably jeans, but could also be the same black dress from GAP that I have 3 of because it’s hella cute and looks good with all mah boots.

but for today these jeans from Old Navy are rocking my world. they’re lined with everything good and right with the world when it is cold outside and they are legit warm. I’m enjoying them very much. if you live where it gets cold you are going to want a pair STAT.

I have this great pair of rose gold mirror finish oxfords with creeper soles from ALDO that may or may not make my toes fall asleep – so I don’t wear them a ton but I fricking love them, and they match the rosy gold buttons on my blazer from Lane Bryant. if I’m gonna wear a t-shirt and jeans then I have to wear a blazer and either heels or oxfords.

my necklace is killer, it is a statement piece from Stella & Dot, because if I wear a t-shirt and blazer to work I have to wear a statement necklace. the one I am wearing is no longer available but it is similar in vibe to this one, which I want now…

I’ve got giant laser cut cactus earrings made by my friend Kelly that I bought at Blue Genie Art Bazaar last year. I wore them in my passport photo and when I go through customs I get complimented on the photo. it is 100% the earrings.

for my watch… I’m wearing this spicy number from Swatch.

but the best best part of this whole outfit is the t-shirt from pyknic. it is super soft, I love it.

tacos are here. gotta go.
