PHOTO TWO MORE DAY

Dirty Water

Usually, on business trips, I’m stuck taking my outfit photos in my room, with varying degrees of success. Today marks the first time I ventured outside, alone, armed with a tripod and remote, to take my outfit photo in a strange city.

Blazer, Forever 21 (embellished). Dress, London Times (shortened hand-me-down). Scarf, thrifted. Shoes, Two Lips. Bag, Mossimo. Cuff, Pangaea. Earrings, Julie’s Inspiration.

Behind me is part of the Boston skyline, shrouded in low clouds.

I’m on the roof of the Wang YMCA of Chinatown. I had the whole thing to myself, so I really wasn’t quite as daring as I’ve made myself out to be.

Stir It Up

I’m a day late with my Everybody Everywear pattern mix. I hope it was worth the wait!

Dresses, Jovovich Hawk for Target (on top) and London Times (underneath). Shoes, Gianni Bini. Earrings, Nine West. Bag, Liz Claiborne (gift).

I don't think the girl on the right (above) likes pattern mixing.

I may have mixed a pattern a time or two before. These are some of my favorites (and boldest):

My pattern mixing has gotten progressively wilder and more frequent, but my approach has remained the same.

Ogre Legs

I listened to Shrek: The Musical today and have ogres on the brain. I think my favorite song might be Donkey’s “Don’t Let Me Go.”

Sweater, vintage. Dress, London Times (handed down and shortened). Tights, We Love Colors. Boots, Miz Mooz. Necklaces, Newport News and thrifted. Bag, Franco Sarto. Sunnies, Betsey Johnson.

Grrr! Ogre legs!
I was also amused by all of the puns and Fiona and Shrek’s farting/belching contest. What can I say? I have a lowbrow sense of humor.

The Adventures Of...

Where's my bullwhip? I'm ready to outrun boulders, eat monkey brains, and search for the Holy Grail.
