Blueberries...

What is it about blueberries?  They are both amazing and terrible fruit.  A pint of blueberries is like Tom Hanks' box of chocolates... you can't know what you are going to get.  One blueberry pops and out burst the most beautifully tart.  The next a sickly sweet... as you can tell, my favorites are the tart.  I keep reaching back... never to know what comes next

It's hard to figured out what to do at times.  Do you take a leap?  Is it all just silly?

I'm trying to decide what to do with my hair... do I go crazy?  Simple?

Thoughts?

NC summer's always freak me out.  Almost all of June passes without any crazy heat... and then it lands the worlds worst heat wave ever... 

Okay maybe not ever... but really bad.

Spunky?


You know how they have those databases that tell you what celebrity you look like...

Well I never get a straight answer when I've taken it but I have a close friend who looks amazingly like punky bruster...

So this is in honor of her

I know I'm loud

I'm pretty sure I came out ready with built in microphone.  I can't remember a time I was shy.  I am a "Bold Roast" so I am not to everyone's liking but that's okay... at least for me.

Not everyone will like you, just make sure you like you!

So today I will let my clothes represent me:
Loud
Modern
and just a little too much at times

Vintage sizing

The first time I ever went into a vintage store I started looking for my "sized" stuff... it was a very rude awakening that all sizing is not equal. . . not at all.  After trying on dress after dress I quickly found that Marilyn Monroe being a dress size 12 was not a big deal.  Size 12 then is like size 6 now... I am not sure if all the women then were that much more tiny or if they just like to make women feel better now but either way it is really disconcerting.

So when you can't decide. . .

I always see these rules in fashion.  The one that has stuck with me since childhood was the white pants after labor day.  There are so many rules in life.  Between work guidelines, school, government... you name it everyone has their own rules that you are supposed to follow.  

I am tired of rules.

I refuse to follow fashion rules.  It is one area of my life that I can say no and do!  Who cares what they say you should do.  Do you feel pretty?  Awesome.  Go for it then!  

I mean really, more than anything else confidence is what makes you glow, what makes people say "wow, did you see her/him".  So if you can rock cut off gloves and love them: wear them.  If you like pants well above your waist line: rock it!  If you like jeggings: get on with your bad self.  But whatever you do wear: 

Wear your clothes don't let them wear you.  Be YOU!

Don't let the "haters" get you down.  You can rock any style you want.  People say you are stuck in the 80's tell them "give it a decade and my style will be the hottest new thing!"  Fashion is circular, don't let them fool you.  There are only so many new ideas so don't let other bully you: just be you and love it!
