Mission #2, Day 5
It's time y'all. Today is the link up for our Mission Week with blazers. If you wore a blazer this week and you would like to link up, you can do so at the bottom of this post.
So you may notice a change in the picture quality round here. After we paid off all of our debt (the wedding . . .), Patrick and I had some tax refund money to splitsies. I got myself a new camera!
I got a Canon Rebel t4i with a Tamron 28-75 2.8 lens. It was more than I was really planning on getting but I know that it will last me for a long time.
I had to wait to take blog photos with it for a better tripod and a remote. But they were delivered today and I was super stoked to try out some blog photos with it! As you can tell, I'm still getting used to it.
Mainly, I am getting used to lugging a HUGE tripod and HUGE camera around. Among other things. So any tips you ladies could give about taking your own blog photos with a DSLR would be much appreciated!
Don't worry, though, there are still a backlog of blog photos from the old camera that I am going to post whilest I get acquainted with Rita (that's what I've decided to call her. Just now.).
I'll get used to it. Practice makes perfect, right? But seriously though. If you have any tips, hook me up!
Orange Tweed Blazer-J. Crew, thrifted; Oversized Oxford Shirt-Wal-Mart; Leather Leggings-Kohl's Grey Boot Socks-Ross; Black Buckle Knee Boots-Charlotte Russe; Necklace-vintage from Grandma; Earrings-gifted

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.
