These pastel blues and pinks remind me of babies.
(jumper/hat: thrifted; chambray tunic: tjmaxx; wedges: tilly's)
I bought this dress several months ago, knowing that it would be perfect for lounging by the river on lazy summer days. It was enormous, so I had to alter it considerably--it was one of my first successful alterations! I basically just pulled all of the seams apart and sewed them back together. And hemmed it. It's terrycloth, which is such a summer fabric, like a towel :)
I feel like I've been slacking off on my blog lately because there just isn't enough to say. I've definitely decided to try for more of a quality-not-quantity approach to blogging, and not to post just because I feel like I need to throw something at the internet.
Why My Life is Too Boring for Blogging
1. K and I eat the same thing every single night during the week. That's not an exaggeration.
2. My daylight hours are spent in a cubicle, not doing crafty projects.
3. I don't have many material desires.
4. I don't have a baby.
5. I don't experiment with hair and makeup.
6. I read a lot, which doesn't photograph well.
7. I don't go to fabulous parties or events.
8. I don't overshare on the internet.
9. I can't participate in Instagram because I refuse to pay for a data plan.
10. I don't travel to interesting places often enough.
So you see my dilemma. ;)
Oh well, life is good, even if it looks boring from a blogging perspective! Happy Thursday!
Ditto (except for the travelling). I'm struggling to get more than two posts up a week at the moment. You sound like someone who's been hanging out on GOMI. :D
ReplyDeleteHaHa I totally agree. That's why I don't really post in the week, it's hard enough finding time to do things outside of a working/commuting day as it is. Only at weekends do I really go anywhere worthy of photographing.
ReplyDeleteI love the dress. Some days I don't feel like I have anything to write, but have a back-up of drafts from days that I had two or three stories. But you've been doing this quite a bit longer than than me you might be finally out of 'drafts'.
ReplyDeleteMy life is pretty boring too as well!! But boring is good, it's relaxing! I love the colour combination together, you did a great job with this dress, I'm impressed

Eep, you should definitely write the whole series!
ReplyDeletei can relate to your 'boring' points! But you have fab style and you show it off beautifully, which makes me a happy follower :)

I am loving the lists you had on your blog for this and the day before. Probably cause I identify with at least 75% of them. Although now I'm starting to worry if I overshare on the internet...eek! hope not! anyhow, I don't think you're boring at all!

Great post!
ReplyDeleteAdorable outfit :)
Those 10 points are exactly mine, and those which make me hesitant of blogging - WHAT should I write about? lol! But I am trying hard to get out from my laziness and write whatever, eventually starting to take better pics of my fabulous, pointless, going-to-nowhere outfits! I think the fun part in blogging is just... blogging whatever comes across our minds and that's it. :)

ReplyDeleteYou did a great job altering that thrifted dress. It'll definitely be nice and light for summer. I really like the blouse layered underneath it. You look so cute, as always!
