Tribal

I have to laugh at the awkwardness of taking outfit pics when people are watching, especially when it comprises of me balancing my little Gorillapod on the roof of my crookedly parked car. Gotta love it even more when a police officer rolls over in his patrol car to ask me what I'm doing. The exchange went something like this:

*I spy a police car driving over and flash him my brightest "please-don't-arrest-me" smile when he's near.
Officer: "So...what's going on here?"
Me: " Just taking some pictures, Officer!" (big smile again)
Officer: "...Of...what?"
Me: "...My outfit? You see, I'm a blogger...so...I take pictures of, ya know...my clothes."
Officer: "...Right..." *Cue suspicious look* "...Ok. Carry on."

He circled around once or twice more as I took a few more sets of photos, and once satisfied that I was not a threat to him, the nearby office building, or national security, he drove off.

With the exception of my gladiator sandals and vintage ring, I am literally in head to toe Forever21 today (and it won't be the first time this week either). I picked up this dress at the same time I bought the leopard print tee I wore earlier this week. It'll be a great summer piece, perfect for throwing over a bathing suit for the beach, with flat sandals for day, or dressed up with heels for night.

Forever21+: Dress (same style, different print), Tank, Belt
Forever 21 Jewelry: Bangles, Turquoise pendant
Ring: Vintage, La Casita
Sandals: Target

  5. @Alyssa I was a little nervous! I really think he had no idea what the hell I was doing and wanted to know!

    @Tye Thanks! My nails are a combo of the pink shade in the OPI Texas colletions, and my toes are Essie Pretty Edgy :)

  6. Great outfit!
    I can't believe the cop hassled you.
    Taking pictures in public can be awkward sometimes.
