I did forgive the other Moleskine for this page being unwritable; but I do not know if I would have forgiven this one.
I love it when Soren naps. This is his second nap today! Yeah! Napping baby = happy mommy. I am happy. I feel good about my blog. It is great, because it, Chictopia, other blogs, get me to try new things. And it is fun. It is thrilling thinking: "What will I wear tomorrow?" with such enthusiasm. It is playing dress up. It is creative. It is a joy.
No, I did not get my hair re-pinked. I wish. I will. Maybe. This is an older pic that I found lying around. I thought I would share it with you all. I like the tie. I should wear ties more often. This is sort of how I might be dressing for Halloween. Only minus the skirt, add pants. And a fake mustache. Fun, hey? I'm being Dr. Watson. My husband is being Sherlock. I guess I gotta get me a pipe.

-this is the end of the dear diary series -for this week. I will do it again, I promise. And then you will see the long promised angry entries...if I feel daring enough. I'll work myself up to it.
Next week's series (I decided I like doing series): is going to be all about clothes and fashion and shopping. Seriously, a series about clothes. I know, a novel idea for a style blog. ;-)
I love your diary entries, and I love this outfit!! The shoes and dress are just lovely, they're such nice colours!

I want to start wearing ties too. But I need to get one first, as an obvious initial step.
ReplyDeleteGreat costume idea! I love the way you styled the tie - it's so chic.
ReplyDeletelove the costume idea! and i too love your diary entries. please keep them coming.
ReplyDeleteLove the outfit. Your coat is so lovely and really rather perfect for Doctor Watson :D . Fake mustaches rule - You'll have to share pics!
ReplyDeleteI love this Dear Diary series you did here. I loved the Snake baby entry so much. You write so poignantly. I remember these feelings too. So well put though. And your outfits and photos are immaculate! The sweater does indeed look fantastic on you and your Watson costume will be a major success I am sure! Regarding postage, while I know you have discovered the answer on your own, I use USPS first class mail to ship internationally and package my things as small and tight as possible. I usually end up paying a little bit on my end for my international customers as well, but I don't mind that so much. I hope you found a good solution. As always K Dog, (my new pet name for you, if you hate it let me know! it just makes me laugh a little!) thank you so much for your beauty and inspiring words.
ReplyDeleteOoh, I hope you take pictures of your Halloween costumes! I also loved the little peek into your inner thoughts this week! I love that skirt too by the way, and I'm insanely jealous that you found it for $1.
ReplyDeletei love all your dear diary entries esp the one for your son.
ReplyDeletei see you're getting better at dressing up. i love blogging too because it provides so much enthusiam and inspiration. that skirt reminds me of my highschool uniform.
*sigh* I so LONG to be home with a baby again..
ReplyDeleteOh Kimberellie, you are adorable. I have enjoyed the diary series, but am looking forward to the more scandalous ones!
