There was all this extra fabric sticking out around the top of the belt, it looked strange.<br /><br />Just wanted to say that I have been reading your blog for months now (this is my first comment though) and you really inspire me. Not just in the ways of fashion, (although that's a big part of it!) but just in terms of confidence and being yourself. So, thank you for writing this blog. I look forward to reading it every day.Leah Harrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07257115753657690249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4235431019167859021.post-49242145889286940742010-08-05T15:08:12.761-07:002010-08-05T15:08:12.761-07:00Now this is CUTE!

It almost seems vain, to me, to feel like I am getting to know myself better via clothes and hair, but I am a girly girl and it works. <br />I am a new blogger, but have been following blogs for quite sometime. The sad, but real, feeling of "knowing" someone makes it easier to see yourself in them. Though I have never met any bloggers, I feel like they are my friends. I am a shy girl, I don't like people. Dressing up makes me feel unique. I am different and I am embracing it, you know. Before I found "my blogs" I was wandering around wondering why I couldn't wear heels to target. Now, I do. <br />It makes the little "I wants" in fashion feel safer. And that makes a big difference, i think.Steffanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07513843062992216755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4235431019167859021.post-48322388234034670212010-08-02T07:58:23.144-07:002010-08-02T07:58:23.144-07:00Love how the shoes and hat compliment the dress so...Love how the shoes and hat compliment the dress so well.

I tried to do this recently with a skirt of mine but it was too short (despite being the longest skirt I own) and didn't have strings and so I looked completely ridiculous. But you look great!<br /><br />I feel very smilar about blogging, I've only been at it a few months but it has really impacted my life. I look at things differently, see people and clothes differently. I also feel like I've collected much more inspiration since now I'm always on the look out for it. I do feel like I've gained a lot of self awareness and I'm more creative in dressing myself.<br /><br />Love to read your random thoughts!<br /><br />xoxo, AshleyAshley [Free Honey]https://www.blogger.com/profile/17351701935850974219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4235431019167859021.post-13730359273594509412010-07-31T06:38:35.299-07:002010-07-31T06:38:35.299-07:00I LOVE this!

Wonderful outfit. I love when that happens, pieces just come together and BAM, its great. <br />I agree with the growth and self reflecting in blogging. I really consider putting together outfits more so, all angles, and mixing things up now and then to try something new, different. Sometimes it works and you get pictures, sometimes you just try again. <br />Also I am getting much better at taking self pictures, at least I think they are getting less awkard. Enough jabber here! <br />ps - loving those heals....<br /><br />http://1of3grls.blogspot.comHeather A.
