Summer Color!

I spied the focal piece in myself portraits on a random browsing trip with my friend.

We literally went from store to store until 1am that day, stopping for lunch at TGI Friday's in between.

I had to practice moderate restraint as I had over an undisclosed amount's worth of items in my basket, in one store.

I saw so many pieces that I could do so much with!

The next day, I used this skirt and two other items to motivate me to do my homework, as it was the closing day of my weekend.

I silently bribed myself, "If you do your homework, you can go get your treats."

Will work for FASHION...

As you can see, I got it done, and rewarded myself.

Annnnnnnnnnnnd I learned about a trick that another blogger does that was so affirming to me...

She said she cuts the lining out of some of her clothes because she finds them so constricting.

I agree...

This skirt was FULLY Lined and it fit so snug around areas where I'm MOST Curvaceous.

So, I gingerly and carefully took my scissors and removed it...

Volia!

I could stand to get this garment taken in a bit at the waist though...
