A Tasty Riddle (T-Shirt Challenge!) Part 3/9

7/9/2015

Soo... when I bought this creamsicle shirt years ago (which is probably obvious given that it's faded like woah), I just really liked the colorful print. It wasn't until I had received it that I saw a cleverly masked riddle on its popsicle stick. For years, I had absolutely no idea wtf the riddle was. >_<

The other day, I had half a mind to Google it and the only joke I could find that closely matched the text was the following: "What is the difference between mashed potatoes and pea soup?" See if you can figure out the answer before looking it up. It's the lamest, most ridiculous answer in the universe. Haha. Are there other mashed potato jokes? I feel like I sleuthed this one pretty good, but you never know. ;)

OK. Now, then. Right. I'm looking like a total clown, today. Haha. I always feel like a gaudy jester when I wear bright colors. People slowed their gait and even paused to ogle. I know that bright colors have a tendency to look neon when worn by people with dark complexions, but you guys don't have to look so amazed. Haha. Geez. :F~ Anyway, whatever. I don't think you can go wrong with coral and sky blue. :D

It doesn't get any more summery than that! I hadn't worn the coral high waisted shorts since this past winter, so I'm super stoked to wear them again. They were brand new with tags in my Storenvy shop for more than a year. Lots of people added it to their favorites, but no one was brave enough to buy it. Hence, I got the waist taken in and kept it. I really want to lighten up my closets, though, you guys! I'm having a sale in my Etsy & Storenvy shops. :D Take my clothes, please! Don't make me keep them all!

The rest of the outfit is pretty self explanatory. Hehe. I just added some understated black almond toe flats and quirked up the outfit just a little bit more with a pair of light coral popsicle socks. :3

OK. Yep. That's it! Have a good weekend and stay out of trouble. ;)

I genuinely think people stare because 1. you have exceptional creative style and 2. because you are gorgeous and interesting! At least, that's why I would stare :D
Couldn't figure out the riddle, is it an American thing? :D
I am in love with this colorful ensemble!

Haha. Yeah, I tend to overthink them and then when I hear the answer, I feel super ridiculous. >_<

I loved this T-shirt and I am really dumb, I had no idea of the answer and yes, I googled it and... yes yes, such a joke :) But I liked it! I loved the shorts and the socks, and your hair looks great! I agree with you, no one can go wrong with coral and turquoise or blue, it's very summery and a combination I love!

And prints with rainbows are always the amazing!
