Yes you. All you crafty, sewing, trendy, good-food-makin, treat-bakin, blogger mom / wives. I want to be like you. See, I kinda thought that after I got the Mrs. degree, I'd automatically become awesome at all of those things. Which obviously, wasn't true at all. Because here I am, blogging about how I'm not so awesome at those things. I see you blogging about your little DIY projects and I envy your craftiness. I tell myself things like "i'm busy with school!" to make myself feel better about my lack in those areas. But honestly, who am I kiddin'? PEOPLE. I need to do something about that. So to all you crafty little blogger mom / wives... teach me your ways.
love,
the helpless one.

DeleteOh Marsa, just enjoy your time of life. It'll come, the day where you are just home with babies and have all the time in the world for sewing and crafting. Start small. Do something cute for Valentine's day :)
ReplyDeletewell shoot, let's have a blogger's craftin night haha! love the outfit.
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with that sweater, so cute & cozy!
ReplyDeleteHahaa, oh boy, I kind of have that same assumption, but I figured it was just a theory...sigh. I'm the same way. Then again, we ARE in school and that consumes a lot of time...lol
ReplyDeleteLove the gingham button down under that amazing print cardi!

Love the pattern mixing.
ReplyDeleteHope you share some DIYs as you start learning. I'm honestly not all that crafty, but I've found that I can do more than I thought... just takes time/patience.
Love the pattern on your top! So pretty~ & I'm totally guilty of doing that -___-;; I blame work, other projects but, if I cut out my snacking time & K-drama time- I would so have time >__<

Honestly, I think busy with school is a great excuse! When I was in school I could barely get dressed in the morning and feed myself, and I was single. I admire, to the greatest degree, those that are married and taking care of grown men that at some point knew how to take care of themselves, while getting an education. Baby steps Marsa

I love your mixed patterns, great call! And I totally covet your red cardi! Why do most things that are super cute cost a lot? :/ Don't worry too much about the little things you can't do, yet. We all have somewhere in us a spark of creativity and sometimes it just takes time to figure it out. I didn't start making things til after I got married and I am still slowly finding things I like to do. When I look back at the things I first made when I started out, you would think a child made it, haha! They were pretty funny/goofy looking. It took me awhile to find my style & creativity. This may sound silly but you do have a talent for blogging :) Your blog is super cute, and you capture people's attention with your wonderful personality!
ReplyDeletexoxo,
Shio
And FASHION is totally your talent!! I heart your style :) That is def something to be proud of. You def don't have to worry that you would be one of those people that gets on that show "What not to wear" ;) lol!
DeleteThat cardigan looks great! And looks so comfy!
