Twelve

Gap: top, pants; Blowfish: boots; Target: belt; handmade!: shawl

I tried several combos with this top this morning: skirt, knit cardi, belt, no belt, pants, grey cardi....Finally, I landed here. It's not spectacular, but it's likable. The problem with these last few outfits is that I have a few I really want to wear, but I don't want to wear my dress three days in row. Someone might notice that! I'll have to make do! Three days left.

The hair was just a quick and dirty bun. I'm experimenting with ways to get them to stay and this one is a winner. I do a pony, wrapping the elastic around twice, then twirl my hair until it spins itself into a bun and secure it with a third wrap of the elastic. I had a few sprays of hair poking out this morning and I don't think any more have joined them. I was dying to wear my betta necklace today, but I've decided it needs a longer chain. It won't come off the one it's on, so I'm going to have to come up with some creative solution until I can find the time and a chain to fix it properly.

Rebecca's done on time (how dare she, huh? ;]), but I think Eliza still has an outfit.

  1. A third elastic...hmmm...that could work. Thanks for the tip, I'm going to try it tomorrow in a desperate attempt to spice life up a little.

    1. Not a third elastic, but wrapping the elastic around the hair three times (or twice, depending on how stretchy your elastic is): twice for the pony, once for the bun. I've done two elastics and that works okay, but maybe not as well as this. I hope it works! :)

    1. At least I'm not alone. :D Thanks! I kinda feel like a remix rock star this time around. I might do a two-dayer for the last couple outfits.

      I am still very, very sad and kind of in disbelief! What are your thoughts?
