Que Sera Sera
I've spoke before about how I don't really promote my blog as much as I probably should.
We've also spoke before many times of the adventures in public I face as my own photographer for said blog. (Really, there are dozens of posts about this, but my personal favorites are here, here and here)
Well, it happened again. And as usual I was a total chicken shit.
A homeless couple walked by as I was snapping these shots (notice the amusement in my face in the photo below. I hate shooting for an audience!).
The woman started to walk over to me and she asks what I'm taking pictures of.
"Oh, I'm just taking some pictures for a photography class I'm in," I lie. It should be said that I believe this to be a classic style blogger cop-out.
"Oh! How fun! So are you taking photos of this tress?" she asks. *in my head I'm going "dammit! follow up questions!"*
"No . . . I have to take photos of myself," I explain.
"Oh . . . so you're obviously in school then . . . right? What are you gonna do with this when you're all done?"
"Ummmmm . . . I'm not really sure . . ."
"Oh," she chuckles, "well que sera sera right?"
Indeed ma'am. Indeed. Please feel free to sit on a nearby bench and watch my every move for the next ten minutes. Thanks.

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
