Unflappable

I took my outfit photos at the end of the day, for once, and it was a long day of normal desk work and tromping through a construction site to be.  All in all, I think the outfit held up.  The long pearls and bow blouse have kind of a flapper vibe, but with the day I had, I'd call this ensemble unflappable.

Dress, Merona, Target; blouse, Loft, gifted (thanks, Kristin), shoes, Born, Goody Two Shoes; earrings, ebay; necklace, craft fair.  (Honorable mention to my favorite glasses from Firmoo.com)

Bright Idea

Слика
I thrifted this bright, multi-colored scarf over the weekend, and I immediately wanted to pair it with complementary colors from my wardrobe.  It turned out... bright.  Coworkers were telling me I looked bright all day.   I flipped my hair out today, but I think the shape makes my face look even rounder than it is.  It's not terrible, it's just not my favorite. Jacket, Glen Aire, thrifted; dress, Studio I, thrifted; scarf, thrifted; shoes, Merona, Target. I almost added neon yellow flats, but I'm glad I didn't pull in any more colors.  Sometimes even bright ideas can go wrong.

Pants and the Blues

Слика
You can't tell from these photos, but these pants are blue velour.  They are a fun alternative to blue jeans, and I think they read as a little dressier than jeans.  I've been wearing more pants, but now that the weather is getting nicer I'll likely transition back to more dresses and skirts. Sweater, Faded Glory, Walmart; tank, A.K.C., thrifted; velour pants, Buffalo, Costco; shoes, Younkers, earrings, thrifted; necklace, made by me! These glasses are one of "the best" things that I've been "saving."  I'm afraid if I wear them, I'll break or scratch them, but if I don't wear them, my prescription will change or I lose them or I'll die and I'll never get to enjoy them.  Don't save the best for last, enjoy the best now!

The Long & Short of It

Слика
For a period of years in middle school, I cried every time I made a significant (to me at the time) change to my hair.  It was always really embarrassing.  I'd want to change my look, and then I'd end up hating it.  That kind of put me off of major haircut changes, even though it has been years and years since I last cried after a haircut.  The last few times I've had my hair cut I've been drawn to this... but I kept chickening out.   It was a dumb anxiety.  It's just hair.  I don't do much with my hair, so what's the big deal.   And my feeling is... neutral.  It's hair.  I like that it's versatile and takes less time to style.  There have been a few moments when I've felt insecure, but I think that has more to do with my perceptions of societal ideas femininity or attractiveness than with what I really think.  I think I look fierce.   I went with a Dorothy-inspired outfit and took my new hair to see Todrick Hall's Straight Outta Oz in Atlant
