bringing (my) sexy back
The title of this post is a bit of a stretch. I’m not sure that I ever had my sexy, really. I’ve never owned the type of clothes that one “goes to the club” in. I always am way self conscious in skirts on the shorter end of the spectrum and my definition of “short” is DEFINITELY not what other people consider to be short. I constantly question the age appropriateness of anything I even consider wearing even though my child is constantly making fun of me for my “long dresses” so obviously he doesn’t really care or think that I am even remotely close to being inappropriate.
Now, none of that is to say that I am hiding. I’m not wearing sweats or giant, two sizes too big shirts or anything but more that I don’t buy anything that is designed to *show* anything, specifically.
And then Alice, you know Alice? I blame Alice (sorry, I had an Arlo Guthrie moment there) sent me these awesome feather earrings
and I got a wild hair to wear them. Not just wear them but wear them. I figured they needed an outfit. Something fitting of their crazy appeal and since we were going to a Mullet Boyz show, you remember The Mullet Boyz, yes? I decided to get out of my comfort zone a bit and make myself something a little sexy.
I had pinned a DIY one shoulder no-sew top on Pinterest and that’s what I decided to go with, the original was black but I happened to have a gray mens shirt laying around so that’s what I went with
and I LOVE IT.
Not to be a totally bragging brat face but for a FREE shirt that was way outside of my comfort zone stylistically? I felt sexy, confident and stylish. Major win!
I think it showed
Just a bit
Aren’t our perceptions of ourselves funn? I always co side red you to be sexy – you had your own style of it I thought was cool ( still do think too)
And that outfit is great! Love it!
BOOMSHAKALAKA! Damn, girl! Looking good
Your sexy never left. Those pics show the TOTAL HOTTNESS that has always been there & always will
I totally think it showed…and thats a good thing! When I was a teen my mom and I were talking about how Britney Spears was sexy. My mom told me this: “Sarah, there is nothing wrong with feeling sexy-its just as important as feeling pretty so don’t be scared of it! Just don’t use it as an excuse to make back choices”-oh mom 😉
You my dear look fabulous!
Lady, you are smoking.
