Two PIece...

Yesterday I had the opportunity to go to the beach.

 My friend bought a beach tarp & I though it was sooo cool and thoughtful!

{Let me preface this by saying that I was a little bummed out due to dating woes. Without going too much into detail, I will say that some things just don’t work out the way I want them to. I decided I’m NOT going to lose myself due to disappointment or frustration. I am blessed… so the opportunity to let go of my funky mood (or even the prospect) and do something fun with friends was what I needed! I also RELISH in the opportunity to flaunt a new outfit!}

I took some pics at home before going as I didn’t want to burden my friends too much with taking my outfit pics. Since my point and click digital camera broke, I’m forced to learn with a more professional grade camera…(I think it’s a DSR…not quite a DSLR…) and a tripod…I’m not ready for outdoor pics, but the lighting would be better. For now I rig up a lil sum-sum in my apartment while I’m learning.

I may need to research tips and tricks for self-portraits with my camera.

Here’s what I got though…

When my local Forever 21 came out with these two pieces, I bought them in EVERY color carried by the store.

I am modeling the tropical print and black...

  But I also have the neon pink as well.

I wore the tropical print to the beach…The colors made me happy.

With my recent dating experience that felt much like rejection, I asked myself 

“Turn down for what?!” 

Life is too short not to relish in my confidence and self-growth. Life is too precious to focus on my flaws ALL the time. For my assets greatly outweigh them!
