While I still consider myself to be getting back into the swing of posting, the swing has been kinda jerky and bumpy. Nonetheless, I have been *taking* some outfits shots -- I just haven't managed to actually get a post put up.
I am working on revamping the way I do my posts by taking all photos during the week + spending time on the weekend to edit photos, create collages, and write and schedule my posts. It's tough to get things done in the evenings, so I think this new plan will help be get back onto a regular schedule.
Despite my lack of posts, I really have been getting dressed. And leaving the house, too. In fact, I even managed to get myself to my first-ever blogger meetup!
I recently joined a Google group called DC FABB, which is for DC-area fashion and beauty bloggers. One of the gals put together a meetup, so I went! The only person there whose blog I was familiar with pre-meetup was Allie from Wardrobe Oxygen. But once there, I met several other gals and I am now following a handful of new blogs. Yay for newness!
Here is a photo of me and Allie (please excuse the craptastic quality of my point-n-shoot camera:
Allie is even sweeter in person than I already thought she was.
Also, here is another (still craptacular quality) shot of some of the other lovely ladies there:
From L to R: Oby (aka Vivi), Fashion Cloture, Allie, and Katherine.
I also managed to get a few late-night shots of my outfit after I got home.

I was really excited to be sporting this scarf I made, and it was a hit at the meetup! Many bloggers have been sporting similar scarves over the last few months -- it seems to be one of those DIYs that has been making the rounds.
I finally decided to make mine after it was chosen as the first DIY for the Made This, Love This group, started by Indiana of Adored Austin. I'm now kinda obsessed with it and want to wear it all day, everyday. I totally plan on thrifting tshirts in all colors so I can make myself an arsenal of awesome.
I loved that neck wrap/scarf of yours! I would have never guessed you made it, do you sell them?

Yay for orange! I can't believe you made the scarf - I LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteI have read quite a few of these FF posts where people were dancers. I always wished I was a dancer/could dance.
