It's My One Year Blogiversary!

I made it one whole year! Hurray! Haha :D Looking back on my style posts for the year, I am amazed at how far I have come. I was so incredibly shy about my photos that I was confined to taking them in front of my bookcase for the longest time. After that, I crept onto my balcony to take the photos and then finally, I ventured away from home and discovered some really awesome spots for my photography.

I remember when I first brought my collapsible tripod and camera out and about to chronicle an outfit I was wearing for coffee lounging. It felt so incredibly awkward and I don't even think the perspective on the photos was proper. Haha. Still, I know that when it was all over, I felt so proud that I had taken the photos without any help (and that I had managed to avoid being kidnapped in the process) Haha. :D

Anyway, without further ado, here are my favorite photos from the inception of my blog in August 2012!

Grab some snacks, sit back, relax and enjoy this little journey through memory lane. :D <3

Thank you so much for caring about the stupid crap that I wear! :P In all seriousness, when I put together outfits, I am basically just being myself. So, by having a personal fashion blog, I am essentially putting myself out there for people to literally judge me. In this regard, it is really nice to be accepted for who I am. I started this blog because I was encouraged to do so by certain people who thought I had a really nice style. It's because of those people, that I dedicated a portion of my life to this endeavor.

Without them, you would not have had this opportunity to even know me. In turn, I would not have been able to get to know so many of you!
So, I'd like to thank those people: Daniel H. and Pamada K. <3

I regard so many of you as my good friends. I really do. I appreciate your acceptance and I never take your kindness for granted. This is the internet! It's so easy for people to be snarky and nasty. Thank you for being so awesome, week after week, month after month. At first, my blog was just a hobby. Now, I regard it as my way of keeping in touch with all of you: my dear friends. Thank you so very much! :D


I'll leave you with a really cool track from one of my favorite artists, Ernest St Laurent of France. If you like this song, you can listen to additional tracks and learn more about this band on my music blog.

Just when you thought the frock challenge was over! Muahahaha.  How you like me now? >:D~  I have a special treat planned for you guys in a couple of days, so I decided to do a little photo shoot for it.

This means you get to see me in another dress! Yay!  <3

I felt like this dress was perfect! It's so fun with its tulle skirt and ballerina style. Of course, I had to tear it down tremendously, because it was just a little bit too cute for my taste. I figured combat boots and a radical hair-do would remedy this problem. Do I look like a punk ballerina? Haha. I'm OK with that. :D

The tulle portion of the dress includes a stretchy pink underskirt. I didn't care much for that bit, so I just put one of my favorite black skirts over it. I inadvertently did something kinda cool, I think. Hehe.
