Hello, gorgeous! Where have you been all my life?

www.apricot-tea.com

I have been terribly bad at updating my little blog here; I have a tendency to forget that it exists & then I become reminded when I receive another friend request or sporadic comment.

Nevertheless [if any one cares, I mean] I am still alive & well, & posting weekly on my own blog, apricot-tea.com. I definitely recommend that people go there instead, as I’ve been updating my outfits & musings there almost religiously.

AND… I’ve been featured at the lovely supermelon, in their Real Style segment! I am so excited to have my first feature there & wanted to share my excitement with all of you. :]

Oh, I almost forgot to include the linkage! Click here to see my interview!

I was in a lazy, yet stylish mood. & this is what transpired. I snapped the pictures even though I felt like a homeless man. But after wearing it all day, I liked the lounge appeal. Even if it does make me look homeless. :]

I found this blouse at a thrift store years ago. It looked terribly gaudy at first glance, with the sequins & everything, but I purchased it anyway.

The first time I ever wore it was to a wedding shower with jeans. I got many compliments on it, in spite of the obnoxious sequins & the mesh material. I don’t know why, but it just works. It shouldn’t work… but it does. & I adore it.

shirt & jean shorts are both from the same thrift store; shoes, from Ross; cardigan, from Target.

A simple outfit, yes, but appropriate for the muggy weather we’ve been having in LA lately.

My doggie, Sofie Aiko, is in the background. It would have been nice for her to say “hello!” to the camera, rather than flashing her goodies. Pardon her. :]

I love these boots that I found at Target (of all places). They are very comfortable, & not at all confining. They have buttons down the side & a teal color inside. My husband says they would look better with jeans, but I like the concept of boots with shorts; especially with this detestable heat. =]
