still have mine from since I was 18... I use them only to clean around in the house or to go buy some bread around the corner.
got mine in 2001... we're still going strong after all these years of non-fashion and chores wise.
to be fair... Diane Kruger, Alessandra Ambrosio, Cameron Diaz, Elle Fanning, Heidi Klum, Keira Knightley, Vanessa Hudgens etc... all of them have been sporting overalls lately.
Yeah, they've been slowly making a comeback for a while. Top Shop has a pair of white printed ones I have my eye on (for beach purposes).
Stella McCartney. The shoes and bag are McCartney as well.

Teenagers have a way of making you age ten years in five minutes. On the other hand, they're so much fun, so full of life and hope and craziness that makes it all worthwhile even as you shake your head and sigh.
For Tee's 18th birthday I made a Bavarian raspberry cream, a complicated molded concoction with plain gelatin and pureed fresh raspberries. It unmolded perfectly, a thing of beauty. I topped it with whipped cream, fresh raspberries and mint leaves.
What did he do while I wasn't watching? He took a soup spoon (!) to taste it and it fell flat. It sort of spread on the serving plate and looked like pink vomit. I roared something about that he was lucky to see his 18th birthday, because he damn sure wouldn't live to see his 19th.
This is comparable to the time when the damn cat ate a hole into the middle of the warm cheesecake. Or the time he stole a venison steak and I chased him up the stairs, cat unwilling to let go and dangled, steak between the teeth, from my arm. That was one of those moments to just say eff it.
LOL
I have these moments all the time! I had to tell my son, look at the mama if she ratchet you have lost the war, don't bring the daughter to the house!!
I think Rihanna is very trendy... Exhibit A: I've seen the battered boyfriend jeans on everyone, from her to Gwen Stefani to Jessica Alba... I even saw a pair at my local ZARA the other day.
I had a pr of black ones by Guess that I wore to death. Bought them at Macy's when I worked there back in the 90s and I bought my cousin the same pair in burgundy. Damn, I wore the hell out of those things.
