What I Wear-Dressing Your Truth Experiment

Today I thought I'd talk to you about something I'm into right now-It's called "Dressing Your Truth." I have to preface that I in no way agree with everything taught, but I'm very interested in the fashion side of it.

I suggest skipping most of the videos that aren't related to fashion.

While she refers to this program as "energy profiling" it's more like "personality profiling." She teaches you how to dress based on the way God made you-which is biblical, being who He created us to be. I again state that I don't agree with everything she says, always be cautious and view things through a biblical perspective. There's a lot to be gained from this, but some things you can leave and throw out.

I've determined that I'm a "Type 4."
The bold, striking woman. It's weird, at some point I quit wearing black near my face without even realizing it! With this program, I'm supposed to go for rich/saturated colors (like black and many others).
I'm not going to share anymore details than that (as that's what you pay for). But I hope you'll join me as I explore this new program and see if it works for me.

Have you ever heard of/done dressing your truth?

Life Before Prince Charming And My Kate Middleton Skirt

                             

                             

 I'm wearing: shirt-Target $7// plaid Kate Middleton style skirt-thrifted hand me down $3.99// black riding boots-Herbergers $37

                               

                              

So I've been thinking about how a lot of girls want Prince Charming to rescue them from....themselves. Simply because one gets married doesn't mean that character flaw is suddenly gone. Yes, marriage can serve to grow both of you, but probably in the same ways you needed growing before marriage. 

So instead of sitting around, wistfully waiting for a perfect guy (who by the way doesn't exist), how about working on those issues God placed on your heart? I.E. Loving your siblings, being content, waiting patiently (insert your personal issue)

It's very easy to get into the mind set of: my life will start when Mr. Darcy enters the dance floor. The reality? Elizabeth Bennett was living her life way before that. 

So, what am I saying? Don't let a guy become your focus in life. I KNOW God has something for you to do right now, right here, in this moment. 

So what is it? 

Navajo Print Skirt And Plain Shirt Obsession

                               

                              

                               

                               

I must say, these plain shirts I purchased last month, are worth their weight in gold! I've seriously been giving them a workout! They're incredibly easy to make outfits out of! They make picking outfits out a breeze! Pull a plain shirt and a cute printed skirt and I'm off! Easy peasy! 

I hadn't realized how many printed and graphic shirts I've purchased over the years! They definintely don't lend themselves to mixing and matching! You can bet you're going to be sick of this shirt before I am! Lol! 

I'm a bit ahead (or behind depending on your pessimistic perspective) on posting, so I wore this some time last week? In all honesty I had a tee shirt and jeans on today for housework (which were changed a bit early due to the fact that I spilt not only pickle juice, but also almond milk all over myself!! Obviously it has nothing to do with the fact that the lid wasn't on.. ) 

In case you're curious, my outfit consists of:

Shirt-Ross $5// Skirt-$4 Rue21etc.// boots-Herbergers $37// lace tank-Vanity $5

Do you own plain shirts? Do you feel they're more functional than, say graphic shirts? 

What I Wear-Tribal Print Cardigan

We went shopping in Bozeman before dropping my brother and sister-in-law off at their hotel. Amongst other things, I found this lovely black and white tribal print cardigan! I saw one similar to this on Forever 21, but I couldn't bring myself to pay $30 for it! So I splurged a bit and bought it for $15 at Ross. I'm really loving it! 

It's nice and cozy warm in addition to being cute (always a plus)! It's not something I would normally wear, but it really appealed to me for some reason. 

I'm wearing: black shirt $5.99 Ross// Black and white tribal print cardigan $15.99 Ross// Denim skirt $3.99 thrifted// boots Go Jane $20// 

What I Wear-Vintage Cape Debut!

I'm Wearing a vintage thrifted cape-$5, Black Herbergers shirt-$10, Old Navy thrifted blue jeans-$5.99, Go Jane boots-29-ish? 

It's finally cold enough to wear my vintage cape! I was standing in my closet this morning and remembered I hadn't worn my lovely cape yet! It's surprisingly warm (although I'm not currently wearing it due to the fact that I've been cutting 16 fresh pineapples...). My mom has decided to torture teach me to can for part of my school. After that, super cleaning my room is on the agenda. It's time to pull those poor neglected Winter clothes out from their dusty boxes! It's almost like getting an entirely new wardrobe-with only vague recollections of wearing them. First things first: box up Summer clothes. The problem is, what exactly are Summer clothes?! Winter, I get that: long sleeves, wool, sweaters and hoodies. However, Summer clothes can be converted into Winter clothes super easy. On the other hand, packing them away helps next Summer, when I unpack my "new" clothes! Anyone have clothing guideline suggestions? How do you decide what to pack away? 

And I had a huge response to my "how old am I?" post-24 comments! Makes me wonder, where are you usually? hmmmm...lurkers, eh? *GRIN* The answer is: 18! many of you got very close, and some even guessed 18 (by the way, the person who guessed 29 was my sister *rolls eyes*-take my advice and block your sisters from commenting! LOL!
PS: Please forgive the greasy hair! : ( 

What I Wear- Finally Back!

Well, I'm finally back from my 10 day trip! I can't believe I haven't posted in 15 days. You can see what I was up to in Colorado tomorrow. I took about a billion photos, so it's taking forever to load!

 My closet is slightly ravaged after the trip-I have like three shirts hanging in my closet. This shirt I pulled out of my luggage, the only one I didn't wear. My bangs look awful in these pictures because I'd just hopped out of the shower and realized I hadn't taken an outfit photo in forever! Thus, what you see is what you get.

You all are amazing followers! I now have 198 followers! I'm super excited to 'meet' all of you, and I look forward to hearing from all of you via comments. I'll try very hard to take outfit pictures soon (these are from yesterday). Just so all of you know, Summer is here in Montana! It's supposed to be 86 deg. today! YIKES! The land of extremes! Going from 56 deg. to 86 deg. is weird, but I'm looking forward to enjoying my Summer. Hopefully planting a garden! More on this later...   

What I'm Wearing- Black Shirt PacSun, Scarf Plato's Closet, Khaki skirt Goodwill.

I have a ton of stuff to catch up on, so I must leave you with this:
