The Sisterhood of the Traveling Boxing Gloves

Last month, Ally, of Shybiker, posted a wonderful photo of herself in pink boxing gloves and asked if any of us wanted to join The Sisterhood of the Traveling Boxing Gloves.  I immediately said yes even though I had no idea what I would wear with pink boxing gloves.  Of course, I got them next and still had no idea what to pair with them.  Those gloves have been sitting by my computer for far, far too long, but this weekend, I finally (finally!) figured out what to wear with them.  Vintage, of course.

Specifically, my vintage bathing suit cover up:

Right haunch

As you can see, I tried to look tough in my photos; I am wearing boxing gloves after all!  But, me being me and boxing gloves and cover ups being fundamentally smile-inducing, I ending up grinning, per usual:




And then I became very, very interested in my feet:


But, at least it gives you a good idea of what my cover up looks like.  It's pretty awesome, right?

I am, however, happy to say that I got it together by the end and looked appropriately tough for the final shots:


Okay, here I'm less tough and more confused, but I tried.
So, yeah, on Easter Sunday I ran around in a giraffe-print swimsuit, a vintage cover up, pink boxing gloves and a lot more leg than you'll ever see again on this blog.  But, you know what?  I had fun.

Thank you so much, Ally, for including me in The Sisterhood!

Happy Tuesday, All!
