Cross Dressing

Ok so this might not be what you thought it would be about. I'm female so I by definition I couldn't truely be a "crossdresser." Well I suppose I could but that's for another discussion entirely, lol. This blog is about having two events in the same day, back to back and no time in between to go home and change. Let's face it most of us have been there. We lead busy lives and don't always have the convenience or time to wear multiple outfits in one day. (If you do have that kind of time please DM me and tell me how you do it.)

So the first thing you have to do is separate the events. We are going to the Ballet in the afternoon and a fundraiser in a high school gym tonight. So put yourself in the mindset that you are only going to one of them. What would you wear? Put together an outfit and set it aside. Next, focus on the other event and do the same thing. Set the second outfit aside. Think what you like most about outfit #1 then do the same with outfit #2. 

 

I kept it simple and didn't over accessorize because I just needed the basics. You can add more or not depending on your time availability that day. 
Next, as I stated earlier I took pieces from each that I liked most. It's cold today so going in to this I knew I needed pants or leggings. Plus if you're shooting free throws from mid court or climbing bleechers you want no "errors" in your outfit; that sealed the inspo for outfit #1. For the ballet I always think of pink and lace and bows; that was my inspo for #2.

Good luck on your challenges and tag me in your posts if you try this! I would love to see what you come up with and I love getting inspiration!

My Little Bathroom Nook

              My little bathroom nook is finally complete! We been in the cottage for 5 months now and when we moved in it was the beginning of the shut downs so it was like just get moved in and deal with getting settled later! When we moved in it was a plane storage closet with the electrical box. I can't even remember if we had shelves or not. We purchased a little plastic 3 drawer storage box on wheels from Meijer and that was about it. We put an accordion door on it so we could close it (out of sight when we had guests). But honestly mid party I would realize we had forgotten to close it and our junk was still in sight! So here we are several months later, about to start on the main house but at least I finally finished this to enjoy the last few months or so while we are still living in the cottage! Pink Washcloths from Target because our old ones met  their fate from a pen in the washing machine. DIY TIP: If you have a bottle that you...

My Little Gray Cape (Trench Coat)

I am LOVING this cape for Fall! When I bought it I thought, 'ok this is going to be cute for the beginning of Fall when it's not super cold, then I'll have to layer sweaters under it and still wear a coat.' But just wearing it for the short time we did this shoot I was sweating! It's perfect for Fall nights, long car rides, plane rides, anything where it gets chilly but you want to be able to throw it off to use your arms. I can't wait to wrap up in it all Fall/Winter long and be nice and cozy! It also comes in Black so I may have to own 2 bc I have a feeling this will be a staple piece in my wardrobe! (Perfect too for formal occasions, verses a coat; yep definitely need it in black!)                                                                                  ...

Mad Hatter Tea Party

Friday night I was invited to an event hosted by Pyramid Hill/Sculpture Park. Australian Artist Amanda Parer displayed 3 of her 5 rabbit sculptures of art entitled "Intrude" at the park; the other 2 were in downtown Cincinnati for the "Blink" light show this past weekend.                                                                                                                The tea party began quite ironically, we were running late due to traffic, so the term "I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date" was thrown around as we hurried to get there. Once we arrived, we were greeted by the Mad Hatter (aka DJ Christopher Gaines from Jam Entertainment LLC) playing an mad mix of tun...
