"Hip Hop" Outfits

Well tonight instead of practicing our dance at church, we all loaded up into various vehicles and drove to Wal-Mart to find outfits for our preformance. The theme is supposed to be sort of hip hop-ish so we were looking for baggy black pants and baggy white T-shirts. Simple, right? Wrong. Turns out they got rid of all their black sweats yesterday. What are the odds?

After about fifteen minutes of fruitless searching for an alternative, Mom suggested we check out the scrubs for something black... Much to my _____ (horror? elation? relief? despair? revulsion? I can't decide...) there hung dozens of pairs of black, baggy scrubs.

I'm still trying to decide if finding those pants was a good thing or not. They are massive, unisex, and have drawstrings a mile long. Bleh. If you ever get to feeling too vain, just go to Wal-Mart, grab a pair, pull them on, tighten the drawstring, and do a slow 360 in the mirror. Believe me, humiliy is not far behind. (Get it? Behind? Haha! That was totally accidental.)

Despite the unflattering nature of the outfits, at least we were all able to buy pants that matched. I don't mind looking _____ (ugly? figureless? dowdy? poofy? Again, I can't decide...you fill in the blank, haha) as long as I'm surrounded by equally _____ looking friends. =P We also got white tennis shoes and T-shirts.

Hip hop clothes really aren't as cool as they're cracked up to be.
