Outfit // Almost Here Darling

Boy, have I missed you all! Since our 'tragedy' that Rebekah wrote about in our last post, we ended up deciding that it would be far too much trouble to blog on this little contraption. Seeing that the pictures we had our posts planned around for this week had already been down loaded to our laptop and just the fact that the format of this thing is so wacky, lead us to these delays- just in case you have been worried about us. :)

I must say, that though I am a very list-oriented person and having this week's blogging schedule completely vanish has been disconcerting, not being able to tell you all my thoughts on your posts has been more frustrating! I have been reading your posts as usual, but for some reason this little laptop struggles to keep our google account signed in, making it very hard to leave a comment. Anywho- be prepared to have your comment stats skyrocket as soon as we finally receive our new charging cord. And shall we all take a second to pray that this one doesn't start smoking? Thanks, I think that would be a good idea!

 I wore this darling dress for church services week before last. Finding it was fabulous! For four dollars? I'll take it!

Though I loved it, it did need some alterations. It had an even more scooped neckline which I already don't like, but this one tended to gape a lot making the bust line fall in the wrong spot. So I just made the straps shorter! Yay for easy-peasy alterations!

I do think taking in the sides and the back darts will help out in making it fit even better, but that will have to be a future project.

 Shoes- Ariat brand, thrifted $3 // Slip- made by me // Dress- Perspective brand, thrifted $4 // Shirt- thrifted ages ago $3 ? // Headscarf- gifted from a friend

Instead of putting a sweater over top of the dress, I decided to wear it more as a jumper. I'm so glad that I never got rid of this shirt! It has a really odd, short fit that doesn't look very appealing unless it is tucked. It was splendid with this assemble, adding this unique scarf made this a really regal look.

Thanks for checking up on us! We hope to be in full blogging mode next week- now just tell the shipping company that!

P.S. Just in case the alinement and formatting are looking completely crazy just keep in mind that I am editing and posting off of a dimly lit 10" x 7" screen! Hopefully it is not too embarrassing! We also had quite the rush of trying to get these pictures (and photo a day's from last week) quickly edited/sent before our main computer died, as it was beeping to be plugged in to it's own cord. Let's just say that a Netbook cord fits a Acer laptop but doesn't charge very successfully! :)
