I often hear this phrase "I wish I could pull that off" in reference to whatever "quirky" thing I'm wearing that day. I felt like I looked like a teacher so I was surprised to hear that phrase almost all day while wearing this outfit. I was talking with B (my guy) and I joked that I'm "pulling off" wearing atypical things like I'm pulling off some sort of heist. I say wear what makes you happy. Easy-peasy. Sometimes I'm happy being comfy in yoga pants and a tank top. More often, I'm happy in a dress that makes me feel like I'm constantly twirling, or I'm a character from a book, or even-one of my favorite teachers. I was and am so inspired by style bloggers who play dress up in everyday life and from now on, when someone says "I wish I could pull that off" I'm going to tell them they can. And to go check out some blogs.
I found this fruit growing on the other side of my building. Anyone know what it is?
Have fun pulling of heists!
It's fun to wear different things! I agree! :) You look cute. I love your glasses.
ReplyDeleteI love wearing different things - but there are definitely things I can't pull off (pencil skirts for one) due to my body shape. I mean, I can wear them, I'll just look awful! I love the golden skirt on you - it's so pretty - and this is kind of 'teacher-ish' in the cutest way possible

I think you pull off your outfits because you feel so comfortable and confident in them
ReplyDeleteYou have such a creative style, I love it
Meow! I love the cat ear ring...(they are cat ears, aren't they?!)
ReplyDeleteI would wear that to work (I am a substitute teacher, lol)! I hear that phrase a lot too and while some things might be more age-appropriate or body flattering to one person over another, I'm always thinking "You can wear this too!" as well.
ReplyDeleteI gotta say I disagree with things being age/body appropriate (with the exception of children). When I'm old I'm going to wear the most crazy awesome things! I mourn for those who find themselves restricted by body image and what others might think of them- so much so that they can't wear what makes them happy.
