Thank you very much for all your advice. They are certainly things we should be living every day but always seem to forget at the most inconvenient times. But I made sure I remembered today when I got my pictures taken. and I can definitely see and feel the difference.
Now I have to finish getting dinner ready because an old friend of mine is coming for dinner. I ran into her a few weeks ago on campus and I hadn't seen for two years! Don't you love that?!? We're having her and her husband over tonight so I'm a bit scatterbrained at the moment (and thanks to ANTM).
Wearing thrifted AE denim jacket ($5), DownEast Basics tee (gift from my MIL), Wet Seal skirt ($10), Wet Seal scarf ($3), F21 boots ($16).
Cute outfit, looking beautiful as usual :) I love love love the denim jacket and the bag! Glad you can see and feel the difference in yourself now. Take care x
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit, and I can see a difference in you. You always looked great but now I can feel through the pictures that YOU feel it too. Have fun at dinner, or rather, I hope you had fun :)

ReplyDeleteLove the combo of the denim jacket + white skirt. Oh and that colorful twist belt is a fun addition to the outfit!
ReplyDeleteAbout your previous post, I too have the same concern. That's why I rarely get my pictures taken outside coz I get too self-conscious. Working on it though. You on the other hand, should have everything to be proud of! =)
Great denim jacket - glad to hear you're feeling better!

ReplyDeletegirl, you look so city chic! and it also looks like youre more comfortable posing and just having fun in your pics now, yaay :D super adorable hun!
ReplyDeleteHi elaine,
ReplyDeleteAs you know I have a style blog haveacuteday.blogspot.com and regularly post pictures of myself on there, and I also don't like pictures of myself. strange. I am obsessed with taking pictures of my family (kjrst.blogspot.com) I feel more comfortable hiding behind the camera. I actually don't think I am pretty at all and wonder if that is why I am so into clothes, to over compensate? Anyway, I think you are beautiful and always seem so natural and composed in your shots. I love them. If you are at all struggling with confidence, it doesn't show. Also, I have never thought of myself as pretty so I have tried really hard to develop other talents, friendships, and loving others, this is where I draw my true strength from, not my appearence. All that being said, I am still a style junky and LOVE clothes, and expressing myself through them! Is that completely incomprehensible?
anyway, you're darling!

ReplyDeleteYes, I can definitely see the change and your smile. You seemed so relax in your poses. Keep it up and oh I love your take on the denim on white skirt combination.It's so fresh. :)
ReplyDeleteLove love love the boots!
