Done shaming my self / white frills

Hi Sweethearts!

Remember these white frills?

The skirt of this dress was one of my personal breakthroughs in terms of defining what I can wear and not.

That definition was blown wide open when I picked my shamed self up from the dressing room floor (when the dress sized XL didn`t fit) and walked out of the store with two matching dresses, determined that I was going to wear the beautiful white frills no matter what.

I made a dress from the two dresses, and here is the skirt of that dress - take three.

I have been thinking about shame today and about why on earth I should keep shaming my self. I couldn`t come up with one good reason to continue with it.

So, sweethearts, it is time for another list LOL

Things I am done shaming my self for:

Being fat

Not feeling ashamed of being fat. (Intricate stuff this :D)

Being smart

My laugh. (If you heard it you`d know what I mean haha. Note to self, make vlog!)

Not managing the whole perfect wife-daughter-professional-friend-thing all the time.

Placing cups with soap around the house instead of spring cleaning (HAHAHAH. I really am honest here :D)

Being a hopeless romantic. (Re-runs of the bachelorette? Sure!)

Growing up the daughter of a diplomat

Being really scared every now and then thinking about the future

Sometimes agreeing with compliments I recieve LOL

Pushing my self too hard to take care of others

Swearing too often

Telling dirty jokes

Being really proud of my self for who I am as a person and where I am in my life

Always wanting to understand and listen to others. I have been called naive, but I`m not, I just love people really easily.

That`s my list. What`s on yours?

I love you guys.

I want to say a big thank you to my beautiful friend LaCara of Oh La La Curves for featuring me today!

She asked me great questions and had me talking about my style icon, my fashion tips, what inspired the name of my blog and my style.

In additon I found myself writing about my English grandmother, condoms and the girls. LOL.

I really hope you surf over to enjoy LaCaras lovely blog.
