This is me stepping out of my comfort zone in a way. I'm playing a little with my proportions, not tucking in my shirt, and wearing a vest that I have never worn before. I haven't worn vests since about 1995 when I wore them all. The. Time. I guess I'm a bit traumatized from looking at the pictures of myself with the bangs and the glasses, and the fluffy hair that I didn't quite know how to manage yet.
But I've been seeing vests like this one on the blogs and on the streets and I was inspired to pull this one out of the very back of my closet. My mom got me this vest, um, a year ago, and it's just been hanging in my closet since then. I think that the reason I haven't worn this is that the neckline and the sleeves are a little awkward. I'm still not totally sure that I love it, but I was diggin' the outfit as a whole today. Maybe I was just so stinkin' comfortable, but I felt good.
Also, can I just say that I'm really glad it's Friday? I plan to spend the weekend cleaning and catching up on the blogs - I've got a lot of reading to do...
And for today's trip pictures:

Girl it is so good to have you back in the blog world. I think that these proportions look just fine on you. Love the shoes, red is such a fun color for footwear.

Beautiful outfits and looks! Love it. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, everything you put on you look gorgeous in!! And red, that is certainly your color! I hope you have a closet full of it :-)
ReplyDeleteI love vests but have been kind of scared of sweater material, flowy style ones. This might be the push I need to try one out in a lighter color. Your face is just beaming in the close up photo by the way!
