What I Wear-Being Myself!






I'm wearing: Striped Hollister Shirt-Thrifted ($2.99), Green No Boundaries Skirt-Thrifted ($3.99) White Vanity Tank-$5 Owl Necklace-hand me down
So I think I've finally nailed down my "clothing issues". I've been dressing for other people! I wasn't getting dressed in the morning for me, I was looking for a cute outfit other people would like! How insane is that?! Instead of doing what I always talk about (dressing to glorify God), I was trying to be something I'm not. I'll never be the best dressed, most fashionable, or the best fashion blogger. I can, however, be the best me. I think I was trying to emulate other people too much-simply because I admired their style. For instance, I love how other people look in high heels, but I'm a boots and flip flops girl! So, this morning I dressed like: me. I paired a casual striped shirt with a casual green skirt. Nothing fancy, but it suits me. I feel comfortable in this outfit! Maybe it's not your style, maybe it is. Take it from me-be yourself! If you try to be someone else, you'll just end up being a second rate _______(insert name) instead of a first rate you!

  1. So true, Natasha! A great reminder for me as an artist as well. Lately, I've been trying to make the type of art that is popular in our culture even though it's not really my style. I'm going to try to make the stuff God puts on my heart rather than what is popular in the world's eyes.

  3. So I like the outfit, and you DO seem comfortable and confident. Your post makes me wonder about all the other outfits you've done. I've not been following too closely what you call "Clothing Issues" so not sure there, but does this mean your other posts showed you in things you wouldn't normally wear other than for a picture??

  6. Love the fun stripes! I definitely agree with dressing in what you like to wear vs what other people want you to wear.

  8. Just found your blog via Emily's Creamy and love that you're sporting the stripes! I'm kind of obsessed with stripes hence why my blog is entitled "Nautical Stripes." :)

    Love what you're doing with your blog and love that you aren't just talking about clothes but also the things that are truly important in life :)
