Happy Humpday. Humpa Humpa. What a weird way to relate to Wednesday. Anyway. I went to Bikrams Yoga this morning and boy was it hard. Not physically.
Mentally. I had ALOT of chatter going on in my head. I didn't want to be there, hated some of the positions. Was like Monkey Mind. Anyway, while finally laying on the floor I had this amazing outfit AHA moment. That's when I created this outfit in my mind. I LOVE this dress. I remember my mom wearing it when I was little. When I was a teenager I bugged her enough until she gave it to me. I have worn it off and on over the years and have vowed to never get rid of it. I came home and dug it out from under the bed, sprayed it with some mist and threw it in the dryer so it wouldn't smell musty. I feel like a country and western singer today. Maybe its the boots. Maybe the dress. Maybe memories of this old dress and my dad's love of Johnny Cash. Not sure but at any rate this is my Bikrams inspired outfit today!!
Do you have any clothes from your mom or even your dad that you love and still wear?
Woo Hoo.....y'all lookin fabulous!!!!

I love this whole outfit, it's perfect!
ReplyDeleteAdorable outfit! Very rockin boots :)
ReplyDeleteI love those boots! I don't often have the confidence to pull of this look...which makes absolutely no sense since I live in TEXAS...but you've inspired me to give it another try soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by my blog! I know exactly what you mean about the blog making things more fun--it may be a little sad and a little vain (but really, I don't care!) but I think about my blog and my blog readers when putting on most outfits. It certainly DOES make getting dressed (and off to work) more fun for me!
Hmm...maybe I need to take up yoga..if it will come up with brilliant outfit ideas for me I'd say it's worth it!! haha..
ReplyDeleteI do have some clothes from my mom...theres one 70's tailored jacket (that she made) that I LOVE...but I can NEVER figure out how to wear it...I've tried it so many times, and it's NEVER made it out my door...I promise I'll figure out a way tho..just not right now since it's packed away..
Hey Natasha.. you need to send a pic of your mom's tailored jacket to Colette and get her to give you some ideas!! I bet she would come up with something really good!!!
ReplyDeleteThese photos are so fun! Its great how Bikram inspired you to create this ensemble, its very well put together!
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that Bikram inspires me to do is.. Shower!
xox
I have a fabulous poncho that my mum knitted when she was younger that I just adore! I get compliments every time I wear it!

You look great, love the sweater and the colorful skirt.
ReplyDeleteI used to have a peace necklace that my dad wore during the seventies...I dont know where it went. It had a rainbow with a dove on it...
I love this outfit. I think the rugged look of the boots make the dress stand out even more. So perfect.
ReplyDeleteI do not have anything that my mom used to wear but I plan to wear her wedding outfit for my own wedding. :)
Love from Toronto, Canada
This outfit suits your personality so perfectly. It makes you look exactly like you are!
ReplyDeleteI have clothes from both of my parents which I wear for sentimental reasons.
