transition

Well hello there, fall. I've been waiting.



Go ahead. Bring on some not too hot, not too cold, but just right.

Let's do this thing.

Happy first day of fall, everyone.

so long summer

These pictures were taken last week, when it was much warmer than it is today.




shirt: vintage, estate sale
pants: Wet Seal, from years ago
sandals: Seychilles


I can't say that I'll miss summer. It was record breaking.

I'm not about breaking records when it comes to heat.

So long summer.

(Props to my little photographer. I have a tripod now, so she is relieved of her duties. She does a great job, but she gets bored quick. :)

before & after

I love everything about this 50s cotton shirt, but I haven't been able to decide how to wear it and what to wear it with.

I tried this.

Not very blogworthy. So, a few tweaks later...

And voila. Much better. I love this tying the shirt at the waist thing I've seen people do, but I've been reluctant to try it. I try to spare people from my pregnancy stretch marks when I can. But why, oh why, haven't I discovered high waist pants sooner!?! Now I can show a little skin again. :)

Shirt: Vintage, Estate Sale
Shorts: Forever 21, thrifted
Shoes: Rocket Dogs

And I put some victory curls in my hair just for fun. Much better.

I love before and after pics. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning is a process. Have a lovely Wednesday, everyone!

don't think, just do

I've been meaning to start this blog for a while now, but things keep getting in the way. It's time to stop overthinking it and just do it. :)

As I tend to get dressed everyday, and most days I dress consciously, I intend for this to be mostly a style blog. I've been following some style blogs for about a year now, and I've realized it's not the vain thing I once thought it was. But I'm sure I'll also add in some thoughts from time to time about food, philosophy, and fun things to do.

Here's an outfit I wore last week.

Bear with me on the photos. Waiting to buy a tripod was one of my excuses to not start blogging yet.

My photographer is turning 4 soon. She did a good job, though, didn't she?




Dress: Vintage, Estate Sale
Belt: Vintage, Borrowed from another dress
Shoes: Steve Madden, thrifted

 There. That wasn't so bad. What was I putting this off for? See you all tomorrow.

(I'd love to hear comments and feel free to share blogging tips. :)
