Using the "REAL" Camera Today

Green top: Merona (Target), gray/brown skirt: TJ Maxx, beige tights: George (Walmart), black lace up oxfords: Predictions (Payless)





This morning I broke out the “real” camera, and already I can see the improvement in the quality of photos. I don’t have a tripod yet, so I’m still working on the balancing act of figuring out how to tilt the camera against my bookcase just so in order to capture my whole body in the photo. But I’m pretty happy with the pictures for the most part!




I always feel rather old-fashioned in this skirt, and I’m not sure if it’s the print or just the length and fullness of it. That being said, I don’t feel old-fashioned in a bad way. In fact, I today I chose to pair it with accessories to play up the image. The tights feel almost crocheted to me, and paired with the oxfords, it seems like an English farmhouse vibe.








Do you remember these Brighton bracelets/belts from the 90s? That’s right, I’m bringing them back single-handedly! I can recall lusting after these braided objects…Brighton was the height of couture in my small hometown upon my arrival into high school. I’m so glad I managed to hold on to one of these bracelets with which to reminisce.



Do you ever wear anything in tribute to *those* days?

Brights today!

Teal green shirt: Merona, Purple pencil skirt: Express, Pink belt: Walmart?, Black Mary Janes: Lower East Side

teal and purple @ Brittany's Cleverly Titled BlogThis shirt is actually a teal green, and the skirt is that color in between cobalt blue and royal purple. They contrast in real life a lot more than they do in this picture. I love that this belt can pull any two contrasting colors together.

I bought this skirt in Lubbock for $22!! I'm on the lookout for bright colored pencil skirts right now. I don't know what I'll do if I end up at a conservative workplace in Midland. Oh, yes I do: I'll take those conservative rules and stick my tongue out at them. You can get away with dressing brightly as long as you are still dressed nice.

Besides, remember yesterday? I was in basic black! Boring!

Here's my pretty "bow headband". I'm getting my hair done tonight, so don't judge me for my roots!
