Weight Loss and HTML Ineptness ...

Long time no blog.I say that often but this time it wasn't because I just didn't feel like it but because I screwed up my blog pretty bad because I don't understand HTML even a little bit.I was trying to find a template that would allow for wider photos and yeah...I ended up going on a fantastic journey of trial and error.I'm not even sure if this will work as intended so this will be short and sweet.If you follow me on instagram then you've already seen this but like I said due to messing up my blog I haven't been taking a lot of blog intended photos.


Happy to report that even though I'm not quite where I want to be I'm really close this time!I can wear my fancy painted peacock blouse without the buttons pulling and wear a modern size 4 pants!




Here is a close up shot of the blouse.I picked it up at an antique mall when I still lived in Indiana for $3!So happy to be able to wear it again.

Skirts From France and Battle of the Bangs

What is new since last week?If you don't follow me on Facebook or Twitter than you're just now finding out that my bangs are back.I'm mostly glad too but there is of course a smidge of remorse over not being able to stick with it,but C'est la vie.

I've also been bad about outfit posts so I thought I'd get one in before I get too rusty.Today I wore the vintage skirt I picked up yesterday while thrifting.There is a cool little thrift shop in town that separates the vintage from the normal donated clothes but still keeps MOST things thrift shop reasonable,others sadly not so much.This skirt was made in Paris,France which automatically makes it cooler to me for some reason.And the fact that I talked the guy down from $20.00 to $12.00 also helps.



I scored my 60's blouse years ago off ebay.I was a little disappointed in my blouse department this morning.I really need to have a better variety.I think a navy nylon blouse would be perfect with the skirt.*Note to self keep eyes open for blouses.I have a ton of skirts but rarely anything to pair them with most of them time,tsk,tsk!Didn't get a close up but there are my awesome $1.00 bakelite hoop earrings.

Ah,yes.My tried and true ballet flats.I should have thrown these away a long time ago but I can't bring myself to do it yet.
