Bridesmaid Revisited
I’m slowly settling back into school— unfortunately— but, I can’t seem to let the great times of this summer go. Though I pretty much worked everyday, I still enjoyed every minute of it and every dollar earned and spent on new clothes. While rummaging through my closet today, there it was, just staring at me, the bridesmaid dress I wore to my parents vow renewal— another mark of a summer well spent, but what do I do with the dress now?
The pearlescent fabric makes it completely useless for day-to-day wear as a dress, but with a bit of folding, some shimming to get in on, and a belt to keep it in place, the dress makes quite the skirt. The only problem with having loads of extra material under the skirt is it gives me an ass like Kim Kardashian, but I guess some guys like that, right? To be honest, life would be much easier if I just cut the top of the dress off and the seam, bit I can’t cut the dress up just yet because (A) I’m still a terrible seamstress, (B) I only bought the dress in June, and (C) I’m the type of person who saves things for good, and I might one day have to wear this dress somewhere— at least that’s what I’m telling myself.
I also went to Target the other day to buy school supplies, and though I did my fair share of frolicking through the aisles of pens, notebooks, and folders, I ended up in the shoe section where I picked up these cute purple moccasins. I’m still sort of in shock as to how much I actually like the shoes because when I was little, my grandma tried to get me to buy moccasins, and I bitched and whined about how gross they are. Oh, how things change!
Fashion week officially starts tomorrow, and unfortunately I won’t be heading to the tents this season, but that’s okay because the exhausted student in me would much rather sleep my free time away. I am however really bummed that I missed the Fashion Indie Brooklyn Bridge fashion show, you can read all about it on Fashion Indie.
What clothes do you plan to take with you from summer to fall or even into winter?
I read about the show in the L magazine and wanted to go but missed it as well. Oh well, next year I suppose.
Noo, moc’s are great. You just gotta get the right ones. And I love the color of your skirt.
