Tiny Little Sun Dress

We decided to spend our Saturday exploring and being a little cultural [which we are seldom, trust me!]. So where did you decide to go? San Antonio National Historic Parks. Doesn't sound that exciting? Well, it wasn't even. Really! But we got some good shots out of it all [narcissist? Yes! totally!] so I guess it was worth it. Plus, we learnt a little history and geography about my beloved Texas :)

One positive effect of blogging on me, has been that it has helped me get rid of my inhibitions [almost]. Now, me and mister click pictures in public all the time, while the on-lookers wonder, "What's going on?". Earlier I would get conscious and decide to only click in isolated areas. But now? Whatever! I am so in-to-it, that I do not care. Everyone can watch as much as they like! 

So here's how I dressed today for a real Texas-style hot-summer-afternoon
Dress - Wish [09'] Also worn here ; Hat - TJ Maxx [10']
Shoes - The Rack Shoes [08']; Belt - J.Crew [10']
Pendant - Mom's

You look very cute, this skirt looks awesome. Skirts outgrow females after sometime, but must say you are well maintained, so skirts go well on you

And your hubby down below looks very very handsome

It's amazing that you have gotten over your inhibitions of taking pictures in public! I still can't stand it and I have so many embarrassing stories, which is why I prefer to do it inside.

Once I was having dinner with a couple of friends, one of whom is a great photographer, and she said she'd take some pictures for me. So we walked down the road (about a block away from where I live, but in London you don't get to know your neighbors, sadly, which would have helped in this situation!) and she found a beautiful house on a quiet road and told me to stand, pose, etc. So I did, and a man came walking along... "Excuse me," he said, "but you're standing in front of my gate!" OH MY GOD, I was SO embarrassed!!! He must have thought we were crazy! But my friend saved the day by saying, "You have a beautiful house!" And he responded, "You're welcome to take pictures in front of it." Whew! Photoshoot in question was this one: http://www.leiasdelights.com/2010/05/tangerine-tart.html In the last photo you can see me obscuring his gate!!!

That dress is just so adorable! The colour really suits you.

Hippie Holly said... Best Blogger Tips

Love the print of that dress! Lovely! Yellow is such a wonderful colour on you. I still have to learn to click pics in public, I freeze up and feel very very freaked of posing in public. I must learn to get over it!
