Most embarrassing date?
If you have spend any time on the dating scene, you will embarrass yourself on a date. It’s one of those things that happens inevitably, because we are human. We try to put our best foot forward, impress our date, and present a great image because we want them to like us. Sometimes, things go awry and the next thing you know you are trying to play off a slip, fall, or foot-in-mouth comment.
I think embarrassing moments on a date can be a blessing in disguise, though! How you recover and handle the situation can actually impress your date more, endear you to them, and break the tension a little.
What is the most embarrassing moment you have experienced on a date? How did you recover from it?
Have you ever been stuck with someone who embarrassed you? Was it something they did that ruined their chances with you?
Happy Friday!

Do you ladies like these colored jeans that are out now? I don’t know about them, a little 80’s. I already have a hot pink pair I got about 3 years ago anyway that I can still rock.

kimmie – can’t say I’m ready for the colored jeans. not because I don’t like color but I just don’t wear a lot of jeans to begin with. only have a few pair of blue jeans and one pair of white ones. now back in the day I had yellow, green and orange jeans. used to wear them with my “tribe vibe” and cross colours tshirts. couldn’t tell me nothing.
I will say that every time I see the commercial I think the girl on BET’s let’s stay together looks so cute wearing her purple suit with the red top.

I have a pair of white jeans that I was just taking a look at last night. They make me look like I have a nice mini-rear in them
Now i’m sure the menfolk will probably stay in hiding with all the shoe & clothes talk
Other than Easter clothes shopping, what plans do you folks have for the weekend, if any?

Lady – I have mostly pumps too. I have one pair of super pointed BCBGs but I most have pairs of pointed toe w/with a skinny heel. Pumps never go out of style. I have a pair of Nine West pointed slingbacks, a pair of AK slingbacks and a pair of Unisa peeptoed slingbacks. But that’s it for slingbacks. I love flats about as equal as I love heels
I only have two pairs of wedgys. The rest are several pairs of pumps, flats, thong sandals, slides…and let’s not forget FLIP FLOPS 
Oh, I do have a couple pairs of high heel Mary Janes. I have a mixed variety with pumps leading…lol

not even kidding bc I use to work in shoes at Lord & Taylor but those names you mention are the only ones I wear. They are classic and can mix with any suit and make it look hot…I love classic simple things.
you love your flip flops. this summer will be a flip flop summer for me sis. BCBG is a bonus for me. I really stick to the NW and i love AK

Ooooh a publix sub sounds so good right about now. Too bad there isn’t one near my job. I may vouch for a grilled cheese from Zaxby’s instead.
disco – Why are you on the fence about the concert? Not really into those two artists?

Lady – Those names carry really good quality. I need shoes that can take it…lol I have a pair of RL pumps and I tell you, it feels like real wood. Not that their uncomfortable because their not but you ain’t gotta worry about them bending or breaking too easily.
NW is what I do mostly because I like they way they look on my feet.
I have a couple pairs of other styles that are not slingbacks but the front is enclosed and the back of the shoe have straps…I like variety
I’m not a “jeansy” gal

The secret to wearing “thong” sandals/shoes is getting a pair where the part between the toe is flat/thin. If you buy a pair of shoes where that piece has any width at all, it’s gonna hurt like a mug. If you can find a pair where it’s as flat as the spacing between your toes, you won’t notice.
I have a pair of Joan and David thong sandals that I bought 2 years ago and probably will wear until they snap. They are oh so comfy.
Lady – Black is good…and slimming

slim – I really like both artists. on the fence because I don’t know if I want to pay for the ticket or not. plus (in keeping with my resolution) I’m doing a little weekend getaway next week (myrtle beach plans fell thru and now probably just going to knock around Greenville).
leggs – I agree on the grilled cheese (especially for grown folks. guess I’m willing to overlook it on kids’ menus). I have a friend who is always ticked when her daughter orders spaghetti in restaurants.
swiss – well purple did say his wife busted a cap and then went and got DRESSED. guess we latched on to that part.

slim – and don’t get me wrong. I love a good grilled cheese sandwich. get all creative with the cheeses, add tomatoes and/or red onion. just never would have occurred to me to order one out. the blt is my go-to sandwich when I need something simple at lunchtime. there’s a restaurant near my house that has a blt pizza. took me a while to try it but I really like it. (they use spinach instead of lettuce but the image is about the same).
