What I Wear-Doctor Who Inspired Wear (Military Style Leather Jacket)

 

Though I'm running the risk of seeming a bit obsessed with Doctor Who-this jacket is so Martha/Rose! No?

I scored this lovely military inspired leather jacket at a thrift store for $5.99! Unfortunately, I'm finding it a bit hard to style! It's sort of bluish-black-which I think makes it hard to style. How would you style this jacket?

I paired the jacket with a floral dress (also thrifted) as well as black leggings and boots from Go Jane. I also painted my nails with this awesome milk chocolate colored polish I got from (of all places) Walgreens!  

What I Wear-Floral, Pink and Brown

I'm Wearing: Floral thrifted shirt($3) Brown Maurices skirt (Gift) White Halftee (C/O Halftee) 

So I'm going to post today, and you're going to pretend that I've posted on schedule...

umm...yeah...sorry ladies! Days keep slipping through my fingers, this week has been crazy! My brother and sister-in-law moved in with us on Monday (last week) and so we've been trying to get back to a regular schedule! My sleep pattern is wrecked still from daylight savings, and I haven't felt like posting lately. I actually wore this outfit Sunday. 

We went to Helena today (yes it's pronounced hell-in-uh). It was nice to get out of the house! We visited Costco (like Sams Club), Goodwill and Macys. Before you judge me on the Macy's, I bought 3 shirts for $14.98! I've found that they have some fantastic sales! We also picked up some Turbo Jam DVDs (Exercise program) at Goodwill for $2 a piece! I believe they retail somewhere around $30 or so! 

What I Wear- Vintage Floral Skirt And Eggshells

Eggshells, beating around the bush, putting it delicately -how many ways can you say keeping your mouth shut?! People that have known me for awhile will know I'm...bold. Blunt. I don't like to dance around subjects, if someone's doing something that I know is wrong, I'm not just going to keep my mouth shut and let them keep doing it. Yes, certain situations call for closing your mouth. But why do we feel we can't tell people what's on our minds? I think most of the time, we don't want to come off as being "judgmental". It's true isn't it? We want to be the "open minded" Christians. But does open minded mean we've abandoned everything we believe-everything the Bible says-just so we don't appear judgmental?!

A lot of the time, we put up a front. Like we have it all together, like we never make mistakes. Why can't we just be honest with one another and say "Hey. I'm really struggling. I don't have everything together!" Being a blunt person doesn't always make you popular, in fact it can make you very unpopular! But the truth is always best.

I want to make it clear, I'm not talking about saying whatever your thinking. Saying things in love is the key! Words can be helpful, or hurtful, you choose. Instead of saying "Wow, little sister! That's the ugliest outfit I've ever seen!" you could offer to help her pick out an outfit, and say something like "I really like that shirt, but I think it might look better with another skirt. Like this one would look really cute!" See what I mean? If you feel the need to say something, don't just close your mouth! Figure out a nice way to say it, and proceed with caution! 

The Conclusion to this sermon? Don't walk on eggshells, and be careful of how, and what your saying to someone.

What I Wear- Floral And White

Here's a change, sepia photo! In the fashion world, this is called "cheating". I forgot to use my "Kiss My Face" wash and lotion this morning, the sunlight against the snow made my eyes water and squint, and my face was all red and looked like someone had beat me up. It's not really called touching it up if you just change the color, is it? Hopefully not...cause I'm doing it anyway! Here is a color photo of my outfit. I promise I'll try to get better pictures next outfit.

White Shirt Target ($3) Floral Tank Top Wal Mart ($1) White Skirt Thrifted ($3.99) Tights Herbergers ($5) Black ballet Flats Payless ($8)

I know there's snow on the ground, and I'm wearing short sleeves...but it was actually really nice outside! Spring-ish in fact! So look out world, Summer's soon! My favorite part of Summer/Spring is the flip flop stage! Gotta love 'em! So comfy and cute!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

 QUESTION: What's your favorite part of Spring?
Here is some art I've been working on as well. I've been enjoying an art DVD called "Drawing realistic portraits from photographs", its given me a better understanding  of shading and I love it!
