I so struggled putting this outfit together. I like the end result but it took me several iterations to get it to this point. I began with the skirt and tried about 5 or 6 different tops until I got something that I thought looked fairly good. The skirt is a new acquisition. I got it on my last shopping trip and I think it is super cute. I went looking for another jean skirt being as I so enjoy wearing the other one I have. I picked this one up for about $15! What a steal. I will have to see if it holds up for the long term.
Did I mention that I think I am having a bad hair day in the photo above? Yeah well, I am kind of thinking that a wig upgrade is in my not too distant future. I am beginning to think that wigs have about a years use while in my possession.
With the photo above, it is one of the new ones taken with my new camera! I am so excited about it, I can’t stand it. I have been bummed with the quality of my previous one and have been looking for a nice upgrade. I decided on a Canon EOS Rebel T3i. Again, I got a heck of a deal on it by buying it from Canon as a refurbished device. I saved quite a bit on it and it works wonderfully! So you might have to bear with me while I share more than a few photos.
Here is a close up of the top portion of my outfit. I like the details of the lace tank along with the woven belt.
This photo shows one of the small little things that bugged the heck out of me with my other camera. My point and shoot lacked any ability to focus on what I wanted to focus it on. It just sort of did it’s own thing and you would cross your fingers and hope.
Part of the reason I had such a hard time choosing a good top to wear with this skirt is because on this day Jules and I were getting our nails done again. I had several cute tops picked out, but the arms were too long. I needed to wear something with shorter arms, to be able to have them not get in the way during my manicure. I know, big issue, huh? Well I hate having to shove my sleeves up my arms and totally stretch them out. I have rather big forearms. Ah, life’s little struggles huh?
What else?????? Not much really. But how about, I find it surprising how many people still seem surprised that I wear my nails painted 24/7. Yup people, I wear them to work this way. And yes I dress as a male at work. Oh and yes, they are purple, with sparkles too!
How about a gratuitous iris picture? Have I told you Jules and I grow iris’? Yup, a whole bunch of them.
