I read fashion blogs all the time. I love sites like Kendi Everyday and jenloveskev and aspire to be as fashion smart and savvy as their writers. When I do actually get to spend some time in public, i.e: at work or the grocery store, I am rarely a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl and I often opt for an awesome dress with lots of accessories, or something no one else in my small town would dream of hanging in their closet. I once had a parent give me a pair of cowboy boots from Nevada because she figured I was stylish enough to wear them and they were getting no use at her home.
But, a lot of my activities calls for something a little more practical... and that's how a Friday evening finds me looking like this. I don't usually post about clothing, but Jonny and I had some fun snapping these photos and I thought it would be funny to start with this unflattering outfit. This is how I really look, this is how I am happiest- enjoying my husband, my pooch and the environment around me. I am proud that I can wear heels and a dress one day and a down-filled vest and rubber boots the next. I am proud to live my two-toned life of smart shopper/potential law student/city lover and cabin going/mud puddle jumping/country loving girl. One day maybe I'll own a Luis Vuitton, but I promise you I will still wear my kamiks, long underwear and free t-shirts as well.
Life can bring with it so many adventures- I'm always going to make sure I have the gear to dress for each one!
