Take a Picture











Embroidered Sweater, slip: Forever 21
SkirtH&M
Flats:Chinese Laundry


Today, was such a busy day at work that I had so much down time. I proceeded to look for thing or two online, but I couldn't think of anything to look up! You know there's a problem when things are so slow,
that you run out of things to surf on at the web! I mean come on already..... I WANNA WORK!!! J/K
As for the skirt ensemble, I decided to wear this skirt because of the colors and because it has FLOWERS! Yep.... flowers, my favorite print!
So as you can see above, it was a very windy day, which made it hard for me to control my skirt. But thank goodness I tamed it a bit in some pictures; I was almost starting to feel like Marilyn Monroe for a minute there! The wind was super crazy and super cold! I ask you...... where is summer for crying out loud??!! I'm ready to wear my pretty dresses, skirts, and feel the hot sun on my skin!
As for the title of this post, I picked it because of the song: "Take a Picture" by Filter. It happened to pop into my head while my photographer was taking the pictures, and just like when the song says: " I feel like a newborn" it was exactly how I felt at that particular time. Ah the memories! Take a listen.....

Embroidered Print Dress





Dress: Forever 21
Tank, Leggings: Target
Flat sandals: Kohl's

Embroidery! Yay! Isn't it lovely?! The embroidery and the colors of this dress, is what made me get it. It looks like I could have gotten it somewhere in Mexico or Central America because embroidered things like these is what is typically made in places like those. I remember going to the market with my family in El Salvador, and I remember the ladies sitting there making all these clothes, with these prints and I just wasn't into it..... now look at me! Rocking the same prints I had once disliked. Well..... somethings really change! I just wished I could have bought one of the hand-made ones when I was over there! Guess I'll have to go back and get one, or two!
