Debut: Azur

5.15.10 (I think) 

I’m debuting my new wallet, a birthday gift from my cousin.  It’s called the Alexandra Wallet and is sadly named for a French explorer and not after me :)  I would love to use this as a clutch for evening but there is no way I’m getting an iPhone to stay in there.  

I’ve only worn this shirt twice and already it’s beginning to fall apart!  The woven fabric is literally unraveling by my arm.  Luckily it’s not too noticeable and I can mostly likely fix it without too much difficulty… I hope.  

I’ve been sitting on these photos a while wondering if I should reshoot this look.  As you can see, the elasticized waist of my shirt is visible in all the photos… I’ve inexplicably lost weight around my rib cage?  Meaning that this yellow skirt is becoming a little large on me now and kept sliding down throughout the day.  Ah well, it’s much more noticeable in the photos than it was in real life!

Blue shirt (Free People), yellow skirt (Odille – Anthropologie), gold belt (Shimamura, on one of many shopping excursions with my friends), gold shoes (Banana Republic).  

Dedication

4.3.2010  Friday

This look is dedicated to jerseyferrari. She inspired me to wear my pink tights with a pattern, as I generally wear them with solids, namely black.  Well, here they are with black again but my dress does have a floral pattern! 

The detail of the sweater is really interesting — it’s not just a basic black.  There’s a sort of bubble burnout pattern in the fabric that you can see a little in the first photo on the left where the sunlight is shining through the bottom of the sweater.  I never take detail shots (for some reason I find them ridiculously difficult and they never seem to focus correctly, as well as always having poor lighting) and I think maybe it’s time to give them some effort.  If anyone has any suggestions please email me (dearalexelizabeth@gmail.com) or even facebook me or something!!
