FYI: I do this entire blog from my Droid phone (except header pic, obviously), snatching moments out of my busy work day for quick photos. My photo sizes may be erratic, and the quality isn't stellar. I am not a professional blogger, and do not have time for lots of scenic poses with a great camera. However, I DO appreciate your continued feedback, even in the absence of photographic artistry.

Effect of Tailoring

I so seldom get "pre-tailoring" photos of my jackets, but I finally have some so I can show the difference it makes! The left photos are the ones I texted to Freeda for a second opinion. The ones on the right are from Friday.

Hmm... perhaps I should press that front seam.... And I think I want to put shoulder pads in this jacket. To be fair, I've put on a few pounds since I had the jacket taken in.

I was supposed to go to a jewelry party... but somebody made the roads crappy:



KHAAAAAAAAN!!!!!



Guess me and my really cute sweater sleeve detail will hang out at home:

Jingle-jangle-jingle!

I like how these tinkle in my ears all day.

The only color in Friday's outfit was in my shoes:



And I'm finally caught up in my posting! Now, I just need to stop by some of my favorite blogs and check in.

  1. I really need to get more tailoring done. In my copious spare time.... How sad is it when you don't even have time to take clothing to a tailor?

  2. Tailoring is magical: it transforms ill-fitting pieces of cloth into beautiful clothes. People underestimate its power.

    This Star Trek movie is my favorite sci-fi film of all time. Ricardo was so over-the-top. I mean, how many men wear a push-up bra?!

  3. Hey! I love that you are wearing Lia Sophia earrings! I have that exact pair; they came in my advisor kit.

    I think the tailoring did wonders for that jacket. I don't know about shoulder pads, though...I think its great in this second iteration.
