Feelin 50's

I wasn't able to get full length pictures because my family had gone camping for the weekend (I helped with a wedding on Saturday) and my full length mirror at home has a huge crack in it. The dress is a bit too short, so I wore a white skirt underneath it. I never would have thought of it on my own. I think I got the idea from Rachel at alamodest. Fabulous blog :) I put my hair up in a high ponytail and tied a black ribbon in it. I also had a white sweater, but it was hot after church so I had taken it off by the time I took pictures. oops

dress: Maurice's, on sale for $15
pearls: my mom's

white eyelet skirt: target?
cream sweater: thrifted, banana republic

Day 2

Here's my outfit for today. I was kinda grungy earlier though. I had a gray tshirt and jeans on. Not too shabby, but not my best. (Although, I was up until 6:30 this morning, so I think that's a pretty good excuse. Aside from waking up ten minutes before my 9:00 class, but I made it!) Anyway, I'm wearing pearls again, and black flats. And I'm just letting my hair air dry and maybe I'll add some curl to it. By the way, I didn't try to cut off my head, the bathroom is just not really the best photo studio :)

Classic Femininity

I love wearing feminine clothes. It's fun and it makes me happy. I don't always dress how Jackie O would, but I make an attempt to put on nice clothes on a pretty regular basis. When I was being inspired by the great fashion icon that Jackie O is, I realized that she wore pearls. Alot. I wear pearls every now and then. They don't seem to go with every outfit that a college student typically has.

Pardon the picture quality. It's just my webcam on my mac. But it will have to do. My roomie, as Jack Sparrow would say, commandeered my Nikon for the day. And yes, I did take these pictures in my shower. It's probably the best place to see a "full length" view if you can call it that. This is what I wore to church today. I felt quite lovely in it. It took me a long time to change into 'regular' clothes since it was such a fun outfit, but eventually Art History called. Anyway, I'm wearing my mom's pearls, a summer dress from Goodwill and a sweater I have had from high school. See? Good fashion doesn't mean you have to pay shocking prices :-)
