For Heaven's Sake

6/13/2018

I'm always pretty self conscious when I wear shorts or, well, when I show my legs at all, really. When I wear something like tights underneath them, for some reason, I feel a little bit better. I don't know why.
I mean you can still see my legs, but I guess it's just the feeling of having something over them? Look, I'm not a psychologist. Haha. It's irrational, but whatever gets me through, you know what I'm sayin'?

Also, it was my birthday week and if ever there was a time for me to be body positive, it was last week. Heh. I'm over 30 and dagnabbit, if I want to wear little shorts, then that's what I'll do and that's what I'll continue to do for as long as I think I have the gams to pull the look off. Deal with it, haters! >:D

At any rate, may I also say that I really love this blazer combined with the (potentially upsetting?) t-shirt. I think the colors and patterns look rad together. Also, the print on the tee is just ace. :DDD

Man, I hope this isn't too boring. Haha. I wasn't sure if I should post this. It's super simple. Just a tee and a skirt, but there's a good amount of quirkiness going on, so I mean. I dunno. It was fun to wear. :P

The tee is one of my favourites and pairing with the bright polka dot skirt seemed like a natural thing to do. I unbuttoned most of the skirt so it would be swishier, but also wore some flowy shorts underneath just in case I had an inadvertent Marilyn Monroe moment. o_O At the risk of being match-matchy, I added the octopus socks with the same color scheme as the tee. It was worth it. I love those socks. Hehe. Rather than wear plain shoes, I opted for the slotted booties which would either be received as an eyesore or an interesting textural twist. It's up to you, really. Lqtm. I like a little bit of craziness. :D

So, yeah. The whole ensemble is super simple, but it's fun, IMO. It's bright and quirky. The patterns are interesting. For just a two-piece outfit, I think there's still lots to see and enjoy. Hope you like it! :D
