The GREEN Skirt

It's official! I am MAD at the weather. Okay. Imagine this. Out and about, weather is fine.  First opportunity of the day to stop and snap my photo. Get out of car. Set up tripod. Set up camera. Take test shot without me in it.  SUDDENLY the powers that be decide to rain down HEAVY. Grab camera, tripod, camera bag, jacket, car keys and run for the car.  Driving home. Swearing. More swearing.  Shaking my head.  So I come inside and have to find a way to get a nice photo in indoor light and in our small house.  I start in the mirror playing around and as a way to calm myself down. ALAS, maybe the yoga book can tell me a pose to relax myself-- I look up "de-stress from being mad-at-the-weather-pose". Nothing. OH WELL.  So now here I sit after snapping my photos with a big martini.  NOOOO I'm just kidding (about the martini!!).  Seriously, I need to find a good indoor location for days like this!!

Green skirt: $3 and is vintage linen.  I LOVE IT. And cant wait to wear it with a groovy leopard top I have.. I tried it together already and it rocks.  Might need to put out DANGER signs when I wear it cuz its hot!!

And by the way, today's outfit came out of my daydreaming during Harry Potter last night. Dont  be offended but those kind of movies are boring to me. I dont like Lord of the Rings or that kind of stuff so instead I thought up outfit ideas and watched the screen for good photography ideas (for angles and lighting...) so all wasn't wasted.  Over n out for today!! xoxo J

Oh yeah, and can you spot the 2 crows in the background? Thats another secret about me ( I think this one is secret 21: I like crows!!)

    That totally seems like a good indoor photo opp location! You're totally adorable! I love that hat, too. I was checking out Goorinbros.com for hats last night and they have one similar to that for $16. I might just have to... before Kendi's shopping ban!

    I like crows, too. I have a black wire one watching over me on a bookshelf in my living room.
