Stylish White Female...

SWF seeks… lazy git.

Photobucket

This skirt was a little project right around the time I got pregnant. It fit much better my 16th and 17th weeks of pregnancy. I suppose since I made it I should be able to take it in. But there’s something a little scary about taking apart the skirt when I was so happy with the way it turned out. What if I ruin it?

It’s just a little too awkward around the waist so it must be done. But I bet it doesn’t happen until next year or something. That’s just how I am, i.e. lazy.

SWF seeks… Kris Kross.

Every now and then it’s interesting to flip a piece of clothing on its head. This tie-front blouse looked pretty good as a tie-back blouse. And I tend to enjoy it when my back gets the attention.

Although today, I threw a jacket on top so the twist was my little secret.

#Protip: One item at a time. Only 14 year-olds in 1992 can get away with a fully Krossed ensemble.

SWF seeks… control.

Flashback for a moment to my post about unlocking the cage. All of your comments are so appreciated. I try not to post here about every single emotion I experience. I enjoy chatting with you all, but I just don’t believe in posting every detail of my life on the internet. This particular subject, however, had been festering inside of me for several weeks. It just felt good to go through a bit of internet therapy. And I am so glad I did. You all helped me more than you can know.

I’m a firm believer in taking control of the things that you can. Simple solution to a simple problem like hair loss? Get rid of the hair. So I did. Kate Lanphear was my inspiration and Jay made it happen.

Kate is a badass. So I went for all black today with just a touch of faux leather.

SWF seeks… time out.

Photobucket

I was a pretty good kid. I don’t remember being in time out very often, although my mom swears I was on the bench when she would pick me up from dance class all of the time. Miss Kris doesn’t remember that and neither do I so we’re going to say it never happened.

Let’s see what time out is like.

And let’s see time out with panache. POW.

Ok, enough goofing around. This was a great Community Choice selection everyone. Thanks! I felt a little bit like a German boarding school teacher. Or something. Probably had something to do with my hair being pinned up into The Schroeder.
