"If we opened our minds to enjoyment, we might find tranquil pleasures spread about us on every side. We might live with the angels that visit us on every sunbeam, and sit with the fairies who wait on every flower." -Samuel Smiles

Hola everyone!

Today was the first day of school for the fall quarter!!! We're starting with embryology, and I'm pretty excited because I touched base on this topic in undergrad (during two of my favourite science courses). Babies, sperm and eggs, oh my!

   Anyway, here are a few photos of a dress that was sent to me from Sheinside back in May. I know, I know... I'm that behind. It's another garment that was subject to tailoring before I got to wear it, so props again to Montgomery Alterations. The dress itself is spot on with the high-low skirt trend of the season, and the color is a nice neutral. I paired it with a thick belt I found in my mom's closet in order to give me a bit of shape, and a funky pair of cage pumps. You have no idea how much fun I have prancing around in dresses that make me feel like a fairy. I just die with glee. If I were reincarnated into a fictional creature, I'd definitely be Tinkerbell or one of her minions.


And a quick update: I made an August resolution that I would not buy any fashion-related purchases until December. There's a new purse in my collection that I will blog about soon, and it was the last purchase before I began my lockdown. I totally went out with a BANG. You'll love it!

Cheers,
C
