Ready for Oktoberfest



Here it is, the new dirndl in all its glory. I love it, even though wearing it seems to reduce me to nothing but silly poses and twirling. Who knew girlie clothes could be so much fun?

Your photo reaffirms my belief: A woman in a dirndl always looks good!

Wowza!

Jul said...

They are indeed flattering little items. Perhaps that's why they've managed to stick around for so long...

GL, I'm telling you, you should get one. It's fun!

A dirndl is definitely going on the list of things to buy Mrs. TBF (for my birthday) - along with a Hooter's waitress outfit and a Japanese schoolgirl uniform.

Pumpkin said...

You look beautiful!

Maria said...

Note to self, dirndl = big boobs. LOL! ;-)

I'm totally jealous of your blossoming breasts, er, I mean plants, in the background, eh. yeah.

I confirm, even with tiny tatas, dirndls are fun. Though not so much...

Jul said...

Ahem, Heza, my eyes are up here. :-P

TBF - I'm sure Bavaria is quite honored that its regional traditional dress has made your very exclusive list.

I'll take Mrs. TBF shopping next time you guys are in Munich.

Pumpkin Pie - aw, thanks. :)

Maria - really? I hadn't noticed the connection, but if you say so... :)

So scharf! Ist das eine Fotomontage oder bist das wirklich Du, Jul?

I think I need to buy a dirndl for my wife, too ;-)

Liebe GrĂ¼sse, Jens

That's hot! I really like it. Too bad I won't be attending Oktoberfest this year. I so can't wait to get to Munich.

Unknown said...

Gorgeous. :-)

Jul said...

Jens - all me. Und alles echt!

Bluefish - I think I'm more excited about the dirndl than I am about Oktoberfest!

Corregio - thanks. :)

Jessica said...

You look awesome! What a great purchase.

Jul said...

Thanks, Jessica. I just wish I had more opportunities to wear it. :)

I think that to be traditional, your hands are supposed to be holding Massen, instead of being behind your back.

As for an occasion, what about the 4th of July? Or Bastille day?

Jul said...

Yes, I should probably get started on building my hand strength...

CanadianSwiss said...

You look awsome in that dirndl, Jul! I'm sure there will be enough opportunities to wear it in Munich. There's always somekind of "Fest" going on there :)

Jul said...

Thanks, CS! :)

Your dress is AWESOME! You're going to fit right in when you go to the next celebration where you can actually wear it. (I guess they're no longer something to wear casually while walking down the street, huh?) :)

Jul said...

Thanks, Zan.

People still wear them to occasions like weddings, so I could walk around in it on a normal day and just pretend I was on my way to a wedding. :)
