Getting my Boho Chic On
I am having one of my annual layout meltdowns. I say annual, this is the kind of thing though that depending on how much Blogging I am in fact doing, can be once or five hundred and twenty five times a year. I do not do much editing in my pictures, even less now that everything is mesh. Because of that, I usually get all creative anxious and want to make the pictures I do take look presentable in some way that is fun for me, and hopefully enjoyable for you too, even if really simple, it is just how I get. In the years that I have been doing this though, it also means that I have done so many different styles, that sometimes I want to jump back to something already done, or done but now different, so pay no mind to my crazy right now, I am all over the place. I also tried to work out the dimensions for pictures to present correctly in social media, and that means limiting width and height, and goodness does that just make you nuts.
I found this top in a Gacha, and it has all the boho loveliness that you need in a going to a festival kind of look. Even though black, I wanted to keep adding to the detail colours and felt that the olive was just perfect. I mentioned the other day great customer service, this is another case of that. The leggings and sleeves are by Blamage, and the sleeves are actually part of a top. The top part is just hidden…this is because when I purchased the top, I ached for the sleeves to be separate items, and contacted the creator, who then with very little gap in time, came back to me with a new hud that hid the sleeves or hid the top, so you get the best of both worlds. I just loved that the ruffled trim to the leggings waistband and the sleeves matched so well to the similar trim on the top.
When I am out, and the sun is a bit stronger than expected, I often say ‘I am growing new freckles’. If you have freckles you will totally understand…the Summer blush sets by Izzie’s make that sunkissed reddish glow to the body and a smattering of freckles really bring that look alive, and that really enhanced this whole ensemble.
The divine jewellery is another of my old and new mixes. The earrings are the latest Beachy Boho earrings set by Yummy, and the Dreamcatcher necklace that is almost 10 years old now, is also by Yummy and I think they work marvelously together. What a skill she has in creating fine pieces, and the detailing in that dreamcatcher is amazing, look at the hook and wire bending metal work that went into holding on the gemstones…that is definitely above and beyond work when you consider how rare it would be to be zoomed in that close to see it. As a fish lover, I logged in and raced to get the set of earrings, because its all under the sea type goodness.
The whole look was fun and lively, and so the hairstyle had to tap into that cuteness, and this Batalie style by Exile did that and then some. It is actually a Halloween style, with a bat wing headband, but the headband is separate and the hairstyle on its own is adorable, and that name is just double fun.
