Kid: Nope, I don't like this one either.
Me: Really? What should I do with my face?
Kid demonstrated for me and I proceeded to attempt to mimic him.

Me: Um, okay, how's this?

Day Three - Mixin' It Up

That's right, my friends. Kayla's 21 Day Challenge has us mixing up the patterns today!  This one's a toughie for me. I perused my closet and found that I own no striped shirts. I have a few striped cardigans, but not a single striped shirt. How is that even possible, you ask. Well, for the longest time, I was under the impression that sideways stripes make a girl look fat. Pshhh what do "they" know, anyways?? I've seen sideways stripes all over the place since discovering fashion blogging, so my new obsession (once I'm allowed to shop again, but that's another story!) is finding a few striped shirts!  Okay, back to the matter at hand, I knew without a doubt that I wanted to include this new to me skirt in the mix today.  With that in mind, I pondered between a zebra print blazer or my zebra print belt that's been all over my blog lately.  Since I'm not a fan of taking too many risks, I settled on the zebra print belt and saved the zebra print blazer for another day.

Shirt: Converse, Target (Borrowed from my Sis)
Skirt: Bought at a Yard Sale ($4)
Belt: Bealls ($4)
Shoes: Nine West, TJ Maxx ($15)
Blingin' Ring: McKell's Closet
Bracelets: Assortment from Bealls & Target

Oh, funny story. This morning, while taking pictures at the gardens I recently discovered, I was attacked by a swarm of killer bees. Okay, not really a swarm. Just one. And okay, I wasn't really attacked, but I did do the "bee dance" and waved my arms around like a crazy person for a few seconds. Good thing the gardens are pretty much deserted first thing in the morning or people might think the girl who takes pictures of herself is a little wacky.
