Now the jcrew shorts are simple and easy. But the pockets are small.
the running shorts have these wonderful tiny little pockets that sit right above your right side hipbone that hold about 2 dollars in cash and a house key. i've thought it was just ideal. the freedom of not carrying anything but my house key and a few dollars.
until today. I bought a pair of huge light blue shorts. They sit perhaps even above my belly button. the pockets are enormous. I was filled with jealous of men today....(this has never happened before) everything i possibly needed fit into these pockets and they were large enough to almost conceal my keys, my cell phone, my chapstick, my drivers license, my debit card, my ponytail holder, change, and some gum. No purse.
Nothing heavy hanging across my body. Nothing to return to retrieve when forgotten. Nothing to stress about in restaurants or while studying near "sketchers". and pockets severely limits the about of "stuff" lugged around with you. Nothing to hop into the car with and get stuck while trying to close the door, nothing to throw you off balance when climbing various obstacles, nothing to interfere with your choice of shoes, belt, etc. Nothing to take up enormous amounts of space in your closet.
If only all my clothes had these pockets... i wouldn't carry snacks, bandaids, pepper spray, my camera, a note pad, a pen, some highlights, lipgloss, ipod, all the jewelry that I start out wearing and then take off being it's bothersome, cell phone charger, a book to read, a long to-do list, etc. Life would be simpler.
