{ PLAIN JANE AND THAT GORGEOUS AFTERNOON LIGHT }



One of those days when you've got nothing to wear because your clothes are still in the laundry. It's a good thing the husband did not run out of his portion of clothes I get to borrow some during this fashion emergency. 

I used to dress up like this back in college. I used to be just a t-shirt, jeans, and sneakers kind of girl. Because in engineering school, the more rugged you look the better. Not that there's anything wrong with that. As far as I can remember, I got interested in wearing clothes other than the usual t-shirt when I started to develop hips. Funny but true. I was stick thin a little over half of my life and I hated it. So when I started to pack some meat on my body, I was more confident to try new clothes, experiment until I found out what works for me. Now I like to wear cute dresses, short shorts, and high heels. But it's also fun to go back to one's previous comforts. And I have to admit the husband got reminded of the girl he fell in love with in college that he got very inspired to take my photos they turned out so damn good. :) I have that gorgeous afternoon light to thank. And hey, husband's skills too!(he'll kill me if I only credit the lighting.haha) :)
