- What are your middle names?
Mine is Amna (the Prophet Mohammad's mother's name), J's is Carey (his mother's maiden name).
You know what else goes in the middle? A belt. I've really been wanting to try a floral sash belt since I saw some at J.Crew and Club Monaco a few weeks ago. What do you think?
- How long have you been together?
We've been together 3 wonderful years. Now I will tell you about what I wore on key days in our lives (yes, I remember).
First date: I am still shocked and horrified by what I wore. My husband makes fun of me to this day because it was so very NOT EWP. I actually didn't think it was a date and just thought we were going to hang out and be friends. And I didn't want to let on I was trying to impress him, so I overcompensated in the casual department and wore layered purple and yellow tanks (I swear this would never happen now, and Mr. EWP laughs at me constantly for it), walking shorts (dear lord, I wore shorts for a possible date), and espadrilles. I also knicked my knee when I was getting out of the cab, so my oufit was complimented by a bleeding knee, which J tried to tend to when I came in, and then I got blood on his shirt, and then I freaked out and demanded he change. Clearly this was the first date any girl would dream of. :)
Engagement: Red ABS twist front, 3/4 sleeve dress, black and cream spectator Dolce Vita mary janes. hotness. This outfit my husband doesn't remember. Probably because it was normal.
Wedding: Wedding dress. duh. And my silver strappy Jimmy Choos.
First anniversary: Purple Badgley Mischka ruffled collar, belted dress, and black satin peep toe Louboutins.
- Who asked who out?
Clearly Mr. EWP asked me out.
- How old are each of you?
We're both 27. But I have a birthday coming up, to which I wish I could wear this.
- Did you go to the same school?
Nope, but J likes to pretend he went to MSU (see pic above).
- Are you from the same home town?
Mr. EWP actually hails from the Windy City I now call home, but I got my fashionista start in MI.
- Who is the smartest?
Depends on what qualifies as smart... Would Mr. EWP think to pair nude shoes with a black dress? I think not, and clearly that means I'm the smartest. Though he could kick my butt in conventional smarts any day of the week.
- Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple?
I think our trip to Spain next week will be the farthest we've gone together.
- Who does the cooking?
My mother is so mad at me for this, but Mr. EWP does the cooking more regularly at our house. He just gets home earlier than I do. But I'm definitely the better cook. If it can't be made in 20 minutes with only 5 ingredients, then it's a little out of my husband's league. I also look more fashionable while cooking as I have the cutest aprons ever.
- Who is more social?
Me by 1000%.
- Who is the neat-freak?
Mr. EWP. I am very clean, but he's a little OCD. We got a cleaning lady to stop him from re-cleaning bathrooms I had already cleaned. So instead of us both cleaning the same bathroom in one day, neither of us do. We're seriously in love with our cleaning lady. She's changed our lives.
- Do you get flowers often?
Mr. EWP, are you reading this? I do not get flowers often enough. *hint* *hint*
- Who is more jealous?
We are so not jealous it's hilarious. I've definitely heard people go, "OMG you say people on tv are hot in front of your husband? *shock* *horror*" But we're secure enough to know it doesn't mean anything. And McSteamy is really hot. And the new green-eyed doc on Grey's may be even hotter.
- What do you do for a living?
I'm an EWP, duh. And my husband is just a plain old esquire.
- Who does the laundry?
I do. Well, mostly our sweet in-building dry cleaners. They are prone to giving us deep discounts because we may be their #1 customers. Hey, we have a lot of clothes. And remember, your clothes will last you longer if you take good care of them. Opt for dry cleaning instead of machine wash, especially if your clothing calls for dry cleaning.
- What is "your" song?
"God Only Knows" by the Beach Boys.
