Hey there, I hope everyone had a great weekend (or long weekend) I definitely did. I'm pretty tired after everything we did this weekend, but I'm going to take it easy today, sit on the deck, read some magazines, then eat some spicy food with my friend!
So this is what I wore the day we drove out to St. Paul for the family reunion. Everyone knows I love this skirt, but I decided I wanted to print mix it with this striped ruffled top. And when we were driving there Bryce and my young Brother informed me that I looked like the american flag, which didn't even cross my mind while getting dressed. So that was the running joke between the boys that day.
While I liked this outfit when I was wearing it, looking at the pictures I don't feel this is as flattering as I thought it was at the time. Going through the pictures it was hard to find a couple that I actually liked. Post surgery, my body always changes a bit, even if it's just bad posture because of pain and how I carry myself, but I find things don't look the same as they did before. Annnyways I love the ruffled detail on this top, but the top itself doesn't fit very well so underneath a skirt it's better. And as much as they may think I look like a flag, I love the print mixing of stripes and polka dots.
outfit: Top-Winners, Skirt-Zara, Belt&shoes-Army and Navy
I feel like that when I look at photos sometimes, but I can honestly say that you look gorgeous! The print mixing is awesome :) xx
ReplyDeleteI think your outfit rocks, even if you are accidentally patriotic. (: But I'm biased because I have yet to see you in anything that I didn't find downright adorable.
ReplyDeleteYour long weekend sounds fabulous, it's always so refreshing getting some extra days off. And I'm loving the mix of prints & colours here, really adorable, you look beautiful as ever. xx veronika

Haha I never would've thought "american flag", but I suppose it's true? But I love it! I love mixing red and blue and this outfit is a perfect example of it. Very cute

I think you look amazing in all these photos... and I'm sure the other pictures were't half bad. Most people are their own harshest critics. I can totally relate to feeling good in an outfit, then seeing yourself on camera and thinking otherwise. But you look adorable and the top and skirt are a perfect match!
