WhatIWore: I’d like to make believe there’s a time when I’ll be able to wear anything I want without fear of being judged or mocked for doing something that makes me happy. I wish I could say I stand behind every single outfit on this blog and that I always feel like a million bucks, but honestly, my self esteem has been wavering lately and I feel like I’m in a little bit of a summer slump. I threw on this dress because it normally makes me happy and added a new flower crown on the way out the door, but then I couldn’t find my favorite sunglasses and I felt kind of… naked (!) without them in these photos. Then I took off the flower crown as I started walking through the neighborhood. I wish I had the courage to do whatever I wanted, but sometimes, I just fall short. I almost didn’t edit or post these pics, but I think they’re a nice way to open up a discussion about how we feel about ourselves.

I’m hoping to disconnect this weekend, spend time with my husband and son, go out with friends and just be without having to worry about outfit photos or looking a certain way (or fitting in or sticking out!) I hope you let this weekend be a chance for you to be a little more of your true self too. Have a good one friends.
