I'm actually talking about my birthday outfit. Meaning fully clothed.
And yes, I was going for shock value.
In honor of my birthday last week, I decided to go shopping. I really had nothing to wear and who wants to turn a year older with the same old clothes?
I'll admit, I'm not really a shopper. I have to be in the right mood. But I made an exception for my birthday and after way too long inside the department store, I came out with my new birthday outfit.
Sorry, you get the dress form version. I don't like pictures of myself. Maybe later.
Okay, here's the low down.
The new items are the shirt and jeans. Yes, even that took me hours to find.
I already had the jean jacket and necklace, but found it added just the right touch.
I like how the antique-ish necklace added a pop of color, while maintaining the style.
I was surprised to learn that as far as Levi's are concerned, that I'm curvy. Imagine that. I've always known I could stand to lose a few pounds, but I never really thought of myself as curvy. But I guess if the jeans fit...
And P.S.? If you decide to take a picture with your dress form? Remember where you put it. I took my photos, went to do other things and when I walked back in the front room I about had a heart attack. Someone was standing in my front room. Breathe. It's just your mannequin.

So cute! I'm not a clothes shopper either, so I understand your pain...
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, that fully clothed dress form would give me a heart attack, especially if it was behind a door... My son has a hanging punching bag downstairs...I finally had to close the door as I thought someone was lurking in there!
I love shirts like that. Anything that is unique and attractive, form fitting, well made, I love. Cute outfit.
