Summer Trends Week, Day 4: Eclectic Prints

I really don't own many prints at all. Am I that boring?!! Some mean person once told me that since I look "ethnic", when I wear prints it makes me look "Fresh off the Boat". I've steered clear of them ever since but now in my adult years I know that there's nothing wrong with looking "ethnic" and I've learned to embrace being a "browner shade of white". So I did prints in the shoes! (And trust, I'll be "monitor shopping" for zany prints in the near future)

Maxi: Old Navy

Espadrilles: Betsey Johnson

Bracelets: Thrifted and child made (the beaded one)

In the summer time, I feel like we can get away with things like bra straps. So if I'm going to be wearing thin straps, I usually pick a fairly obvious bra to wear with it. Blending it in is never going to work, and I've had three babies: There is no way I'm going braless. I'd never have straps showing if I were going to an event, especially not if I were going to work, but for a day like I've had which included running errands, going to the park, etc, I can afford to be a little "trashy". Also, this maxi is hard to walk in because it's long and there are no slits. So I gathered it up and tied it in a little knot on the inside. No more tiny steps!

That's all,

Twills
