Tank: American Eagle

Bag: Thrifted D&B
Shoes: Steve Madden
Rings: Assorted Silver
Glasses: Prescription
Hair: 106 bobby pins and a prayer

Project non-woodsy photo spot hunt is in full effect. I've been watching a lot of Criminal Minds, and coping with a lot of bug bites lately. Between the itchiness and the fear of being kidnapped, I find myself oddly cautious of wandering into wooded areas alone with bare legs. These gems were taken behind an empty bank parking lot. The manager of the store next door came out midway through, took down my license plate number, and ran back inside. I think he called the cops. Sucker, I was already done casing the joint.

It's booked on two counts of twirling Tuesday,

Pin It!

  9. LOL. How weird that he took your license number. Is it really that strange to take pictures of oneself in an abandoned lot?

  10. Haha. I'm Criminal Minds obsessed and it truly effects my life. I see a potential for awful things around every corner. I may be embarrassing myself right now, but I also watch Without a Trace and have literally imagined people suddenly disappearing in situations that seemed fitting.

    In ANY case, you look adorable, as per usual :)

    xo, Bruklyn

    Today I had a few creepy men staring at me while taking photos. I have a feeling this is going to be a regular occurrence while I'm taking my own outfit photos! Oh man!

  23. It is a cool look on you...
    I'm liking the shoes and skirt.

    I kinda stop watching 'Criminal MInds' lately because I tend to dream paranoid dreams... but I really like Thomas Gibson and the other stars...so sometimes I give in.

  24. That skit is gorgeous. Finding the perfect photo shoot is hard work. There are always bugs or poor lighting or too many onlookers.
