The trees whispered of songs that lit up the night sky with fireflies and forbidden lies---she listened.
While makeup has made numerous appearances on this blog---fashion is something I have a fiery passion for and I honestly don't share that side of me enough with you beautiful babes. My style has definitely transformed over the years. I used to be strictly a monochrome babe believe it or not. But, these days I'm all about my pastels~ There's just something so romantic about baby soft colors. I mean what's more romantic than these dusty rose pink shorts?! Okay, well apparently a lot of things---but these baby pink shorties are my one true love this summer. You can read all about them over here if you would like~
Just the other day my little sisters, my darling kitty, and I took a little adventure in the woods. Our neighborhood is surrounded by a massive forest and the trees often whisper their sweet and silent invitations. Sadly, Snow White didn't peek out to say hello, but with my fellow sturdy oxfords we continued to trudge on deeper into the woods and further away from the safe lake that we often circle around.
All of a sudden an eerie "Excuse me?" slowly floats out of the bushes. I quickly recognize it's an elderly woman's voice and give a hesitant and questioning "Yes?" in return. Because, obviously the sensible and right thing to do here is to talk to the mysterious voice in the bushes, right? Right. It gets creepier. The old woman in the most creepiest way possible asks where we live! Yeah, you would think at this point I'd stuff my sisters and cat in my basket and run with all the might my wobbly legs would allow. But, no, no of course not! I do what any smart and responsible citizen would do and tell the woman what subdivision we live in. I might as well have given her my blood type and what arm I'd rather have chopped off! I prefer the left, thank you. I can't lie to save my life, okay?! You could tell me to lie about picking the lint off someone's shirt and I will be a sobbing mess in seconds confessing my life story and vowing the rest of my life to you. I wish I was over exaggerating. . .
Anyways, back to the creepy old lady. I quickly realize my mistake and begin bumbling about other "lovely" subdivisions in the area hoping to confuse her with the other names. Yeah, that's right Sylvia use the art of confusion *eye roll*. While rambling on about nothing I dart my eyes around the woods keeping mental notes of the different paths just in case my sisters and I need to run. Call me paranoid but old ladies hiding in bushes aren't exactly my thing. The old woman curtly tells us to have a nice day and my sisters and I breathe a sigh of relief. My precious cat could care less as she slinks in the long grass looking for lizards and such. Old ladies don't bother that little missy. But, the moment of relief was short lived as I quickly realize one thing---I never heard footsteps walking away. I immediately turn around and there she is. Or maybe I should say a part of her. One eyeball peered through the leaves and branches. Is it necessary that I tell you that we were out of there! I didn't have to wait for any poisoned apple to make a dash for it. I apparently draw the line at eyeballs~

Now, you're probably all thinking I pulled this story out of a unicorn's butt---but I pinky swears I would never make any of this up! Double pinky swears~ Oh, Snow White how did you do it?! Well I think that's enough creepy tales for the day! But, before I go I have two questions for you lovelies! First comes, first serves. . .how do you all like fashion posts? The only thing that 'prevents' me from doing them is my camera is quite rubbish when it comes to taking full on body pictures. It's such a pain, but if you all don't mind too much then I don't mind overlooking a few pixels until I get a new camera! The second question is completely irrelevant from the first. . .
What's the creepiest thing that ever happened to you? I promise I won't get scared~
Watch out for old ladies and bushes.

She's honestly too adorable for her own good---she's always trying to kill innocent lizards that little devil! Pastels are just everything <3
DeleteInteresting story. I wonder if that poor old woman was in trouble!

Oh, no, no she didn't look like she was in any trouble, but she sure did seem like it! Although, I do like the interesting change of view point!

DeleteThat story sounds scary as heck! I can't believe people can be like that and not realise it's creepy! Your hair looks great though, I need mine to grow that long.
ReplyDeleteIt was more creepy than scary haha---I still really wonder what that little old lady was thinking?! Was she thinking maybe I'll drop off a warm batch of fresh chocolate chip cookies later or who should I kidnap first the cat or the girl---I guess I will never know! Use Vitamin E oil it will make your hair healthier and grow much more quickly <3
DeleteLovely pictures!

Deleteyour hair is really nice... what products you use??

Well my hair is naturally crazy wavy, but in this picture I curled a few of the front strands and used Moroccan curling perfection cream by organix to define the waviness more! I try to stay away as much as possible from heat styling so the defining cream is a great alternative~
DeleteSeems like an encounter with an old lady from a fairytale! Beautiful hair sweetie

Thank you, Sara <3 I suppose the woods helped out a bit in the photo department haha
DeleteI used to really like pastels but now I like neutrals and earth tones more;D Pastels are pretty and lovely, too bad I don't look good on them:/
ReplyDeleteAnyway, your story about the old lady is sooo creepy x_x if I were you I'd have left already!
Tia | GARNETIA
I like neutrals too, but pastels just have my heart during the summer <3 I know sometimes I'm just really slow to reacting at 'dangerous' situations---I always try to brave it out instead of running away from things. You don't have to tell me how stupid that is haha~
DeleteI'm still a monochrome babe honestly! Hahaha, I don't experiment with pastels because it' not my colour but it's definitely yours!
ReplyDeleteBy the way...that old woman sounds creepy...Walk away slowly...and never return!!!

Nothing wrong with monochrome babes <3 I just went back to the woods the other day and instead of finding the old lady I found a blue wasps nest---I definitely ran away that time. When will I learn my lesson?
Deleteyou're sooo gorgeous!
