I just bought a new tripod and I forgot how difficult it is to frame a picture correctly! I’m sure I’ll get the hang of it, it helps when my boyfriend aka “photographer” isn’t around to snap a quick pic.
Wearability Report:
Honestly, this isn’t a garment I get a lot of wear out of. I tend to wear it when I’m home kicking around the apartment in the summertime since it’s a comfy, unstructured top-to-bottom outfit solution. I’m not 100% thrilled with the fit either, probably another reason why I don’t reach for it very often – I had to do some adjustments to the torso length and now I think I made it too long. I’m also not a fan of how the back looks since it doesn’t help me out at all, if you catch my drift. However, I’m really liking the look with my pink and white leopard print belt, it pulls it together a lot nicer than the black fabric belt I made to go with it. The pant length drives me a little bit nuts as well…maybe I’ll hem them shorter so it’s not as awkward of a length.
Jumpsuits…I don’t see a lot of them around, probably due to the fact that they can be hard to pull-off and wear in public. At least they’re comfy to wear around the house!
