Spring obsession

One of my favorite collections on the runway this Spring had to be Luella's. I love the bright colors, they're not harsh on the eyes, the tweed blazers put together with ruffle dresses. So whimsical! The entire collection is very ladylike and girly, I love that. There was a lot of florals too, which made the look a little more feminine. (Check out the shoes!) Oh, and those cute fascinators were to die for! I'm dying to make one in orange!
Well, here are some of my favorite looks:

My pretty ugly dress

So, I finally decided to snap a pic of my ugly/interesting dress. I know, i know, it looks like I'm off to meet Wonder Woman or some superheroe sidekick. I still love it :)
I got this piece of work on Etsy about a month ago for $35 tag reads Pantagis, I also received the white 1930's ruffle gown in the mail today, "the white dress".
It looks so awesome in person! I will post pictures soon... If anyone knows of somewhere I can restore this really old piece, please let me know! Its very fragile and has a few rips and tears...
Also, I will post some great thrifty finds soon! so stay posted! 
Oh, and please excuse the state of my hair :D

The white dress

I am currently obsessed with white dresses. They've been all over the runways for Spring, especially with ruffles and frills. I made a collage of my favorite ones below. Flowy, fresh, pure and feminine.

I found the perfect white dress at Etsy, dating back from the 1930's and I'm in love! Isn't it gorgeous?

Life


“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”
-Charles R. Swindoll

Me


I tend to judge myself and I'm very self conscious. At times, i want people around to like me, to see me as a certain individual. at times i just don't care. I get a lot of compliments, (or not) of my actions, my talent, my style, my personality etc. and i reflect on the things i should change about myself as a person. I have had people trust me with incredible tasks and opportunities for escalating my career, i get so excited and sometimes wonder if i am talented or good enough. I am grateful for the people i have around me that believe in me, for seeing things in me that i can't, and helping me acknowledge of what im capable of. But when it all comes down to it, what counts is that at the end of all the criticism and struggles one goes through to improve oneself to become a notable individual, it is most important that you are the one that loves, accepts and appreciates you for you, above everything and anyone; quirks and all.

Goodbye... Self-developing film


Unfortunately for me, i never got to buy a Polaroid, and as of 2008, it is being discontinued. Ugh! Sucks big time. The company filed for bankruptcy, but will relaunch they're iconic Polaroid camera for the new year. Its called POGO and just like the Polaroid prints your pictures automatically. Well, this means goodbye to Polaroid, You will be missed... Hello POGO!
New Polaroid PoGo
