Perfect fit


Perfect fit

There is nothing like the perfect fit. I love to look at pictures of my younger self and check out some of my fashion faux pas and fashion victories...Turns out my mother dressed me well..I was always in pretty dresses with matching purses and shoes, pretty bow in hair and minimal accessories. Things changed when I could dress myself. My teenage years were typical fashion victim years...photos of which my sister suggested I should burn since she believes that we should only preserve the "nice" photos of ourselves...lol..

What's your fashion story?

Some masking/misting (Tim Holtz mask & Maya mist), handstitching, patterned paper from Studio Calico (Homefront collection courtesy of Sherry:), lace, ribbon, crochet flower & flower center bling (courtesy of Juhi:). Journaling printed on transparency. Title prompt was inspired by Category Stories.

  5. Such a darling layout and love that pic of you.

    When I was a baby, I loved red. So my mom always dressed me in really cute red outfits. :) I've always been more preppy. I dressed better in high school then college, lol. Too many late nights cramming and then just rolling out of bed to go to class. But I have to wear a suit everyday for work, so I'm back to my preppy self.
