Jessica Quirk Knows How To Dress In A Flattering And Stylish Way

Jessica Quirk, thinks you’re rude, inexplicably continues her “personal style blog” at What I Wore. Yesterday’s groundbreaking outfit – which Jessica called “sexy” – was wtf enough for me to need some GOMIBLOG commenter response therapy.

What IS this? First of all, oh look nude shoes…again. Second, this woman seems to dress in a way to purposely invite speculation about whether her uterus is occupied. I also had a little trouble at first figuring out whether those were wrinkles or panty lines. And don’t get me started on those Carmen Miranda necklaces that all the bloggers are wearing now.

Please tell me I’m not the only one still shaking my head over Messica’s outfits.

What I Wore Is Taking A “Breather”

Jessica Quirk, of What I Wore and Park Slope fame, is apparently exhausted from her full time job posting pictures of her outfits. She announced today that she will be slowing down her blog for rest of the summer:

Hey everyone! How are ya doing?! Hope your weekend was great and this Monday is off to a great start. I’ve actually been feeling really burnt out lately. I’ve hinted to this on twitter in the past week and have so many drafted posts about the subject, but I’m just not ready to go into yet. In short, I’m going to relax a little with What I Wore for the rest of the summer.

Before you question how one can get “burnt out” being a full time fashion blogger, Messica then adds what may be the real reason for the slowdown:

In the meantime, I am really excited about my new fitness routine at bootcamp! It is so difficult, but I feel so much stronger and will hopefully turn this little beer belly into rock hard beach abs! One can hope, right?

As a GOMIBLOGer said in the forum, sounds more likely that she just wants to spend more time trying to get thin in time for September Fashion Week, because honestly posting pics of your outfits isn’t exactly burning the candle at both ends. But since she says there are things she’s not “ready to go into yet” it could mean anything from she’s trying to get pregnant to she’s got another book deal (she’s been mentioning that she’s sketching again) to she’s thinking about folding WIW and just doing “That’s Quirky“.

I’m sure Messica will enlighten us later with a detailed, all the feelings post about what’s going on. In the meantime, does anyone even still read What I Wore?

That’s Quirky Reveals Not Amazing Dining Room Makeover

Jessica and Adam Quirk, lifestyle wannabloggers, are finally sharing the visual ipecac which is their dining room makeover. The Quirks explain their design choices using language they no doubt picked up reading Apartment Therapy:

Selecting paint colors was my biggest challenge. The living and dining rooms are connected through a large arch and I wanted each room to look different, but also flow through smoothly. My vintage globe collection, black and white rugs and accents in the living room and the original wood trim were my main concerns. And I finally got that black wall I’ve been dreaming of! I love how it shows off our old house walls which are so full of character!

Pairing blue walls with a black accent wall and a dark wood dining set is certainly a matter of personal taste I suppose, but I can’t help thinking it must feel like they are eating their meals inside a giant bruise.

Whatever. They made kind of a big deal about this makeover so maybe my expectations were too high. We are talking about Messica, after all, so I’m not sure why I expected something with a little more style. It seems their attempt at lifestyle blogging is going to be as riveting as Messica’s attempt at style blogging. Meaning, not interesting at all. I think this marks the end of me giving a crap about the Quirks.

Messica’s Maternity Dress Confuses Readers

Jessica Quirk, married, is sparking baby speculation once again. Her post from last Wednesday (how often does she blog anymore?) features Messica in a typical black maxi dress from Target. Unremarkable, except her readers are buzzing that the dress is a maternity dress.

Apparently the dress is a Liz Lange maternity dress from Target. Why would Messica wear a maternity dress unless she is pregnant? Is this a thing now, wearing maternity clothes for no reason? I get that they are comfortable and all but considering how size tag conscious she has been in the past you would think she wouldn’t want anything that implies “egg burgers and beer gut” going on her body.

Honestly I do wish she would just hurry up and pop out a kid already, and start ‘lifestyle’ blogging like her peers are doing. ‘Personal style’ blogs are a dying niche, Messica! Time to move into the next blogging trend! Oh well, I’m sure she will hop on this trend the way she hops on all the other trends. Meaning, a year behind everyone else.

Jessica Quirk Continues To Inspire

Jessica Quirk, tall, shared her perfect recreation of Jackie O Friday as part of her amazing and original Mad Men theme week. With her incredible hourglass figure and her long legs (just like her Father!) she combines a fantastically charming and kind personality as well as out of this world writing skills on her brilliant blog, What I Wore.

No one can say anything bad about Mrs. Quirk, who loves the letter Q, drinking booze, and eating. With her hectic schedule running What I Wore full time it’s impressive how she manages to be both wife and style icon for millions and millions of readers while maintaining such poise and grace. She’s inspiring to brillions and we hope she stays on our internets!

Jessica Quirk Doesn’t Even Care Anymore

Jessica Quirk, so French, is inexplicably still posting to her What I Wore blog. Today’s mediocre offering shows Messica utilizing the classic Hide The Roll Half Tuck with yet another striped shirt.

But Messica doesn’t care what you think (except when she does):

I bought this top over the weekend. Another. Striped. Top. Whatever! I know what I like! And the best part is that it’ll work year round and with so many pieces I already have in my closet. Win, win!

Is it just me or is Messica really let her beyotchy defensive flag fly these days? Is she pregnant and hormonal? Is she bitter about not attending Fashion Week? Is she frustrated with the process of growing out her hair? For someone who preaches positivity and letting people live their lives judgment free she’s certainly got a lot of opinions on other people these days. Maybe she’s finally starting to regret that move to Bloomtucky Indiana and just doesn’t care anymore. Nothing says ‘I give up’ like not even tucking in your shirt all the way.

ThatsQuirky.com Gone, Internet Says “Who Dot Com?”

If you’ve been waiting eagerly for Jessica Quirk, of slowly dying ‘personal style blog’ What I Wore, to start transferring her full time blogging over to ThatsQuirky.com you may be in for a long wait. The blog that never made a bang has gone out with a whimper and is currently password locked, with no explanation.

The half-assed attempt at ‘lifestyle’ blogging previously featured pictures of the house she wanted to buy (removed when the purchase evidently didn’t happen), photos of her apartment and her dull attempts at ‘decorating’, and images of her new kitten. It also randomly featured things she wished to buy for her future home – usually with text asking publicly what her husband thought of the item.

Many felt she would surely start moving towards making That’s Quirky her main blog as What I Wore continues its depressing slide into tedium, and the site may just be down for a redesign in preparation for such a plan. Or perhaps Messica sees no point in keeping it alive since she only bothers to post once a month. Either way it seems odd that she would shutter it with no mention of why.

We certainly hope she re-opens That’s Quirky because we don’t know how we will live until we know what West Elm and CB2 crap she bought for her white box apartment in Just Outside Bloomtucky!
