Wrapped Up...

(DIY scarf turned crop top, Gap. Trousers, Thrifted. Scarf, Moms. Shoes, UrbanOutfitters. Locket + Purse, Urban Thread. Rings, BananaRepublic. )
Today was so beautiful; the weather, the company... everything. My roommate, Tracy and I went thrifting downtown. Tracy made off like a bandit with all sorts of thrited goods... I unfortunately did not. O well, it honestly didn't bother me because just trying on clothes was fun.
So I don't hate my camera as much anymore lol. I don't know what changed my mind, it could be because I am no longer using a tripod (I am home so my little brother is taking my pics hence the mini photo-shoot), or it could be the fact that I took the photos in daylight rather than artificial. I don't know but I think the picture quality is much improved, wouldn't you say?
On another note, I made the top I'm wearing. It wasn't a serious DIY (I'm all about the 2 minute DIYs lol). Seriously, the scarf is like 10 ft long and 2.5 ft wide, so I wrapped it around the twins and called it a day. It was the scarf I used in this post.
Thanks Visionary Butterfly for my lovely blog award, I greatly appreciate it.
RIP Michael Jackson

See, if I tried to wear a scarf as a top my boobs would laugh at me. "We don't have enough to hold up this scarf!" they'd scream, before popping out for the world to see.

You, however, look fab.
