The Metaphor Girl

Outfit of the Day: 20 Shades of Poorly Planned Pink

You know how I said that I tend to dress like crap when I’m not careful? Well, this is an example of me dressing poorly.

And also standing poorly.

And also smiling poorly (to wit: not smiling at all).

And also I am wearing a super cute pink flower in my hair and you can’t see it in either picture.

But now that I’m looking at the picture, the skirt hangs awkwardly on me, and the belt would look better if it was wider (I think), and the shoes are NOT GOOD. Holy hot pink, Batman. Does not match at all. And my lips don’t blend well either. There’s like 20 shades of poorly planned pink going on here, and it needs to stop.

So this is pretty much a fail, all the way around. I at least like the way my eye turned out, though!

I’ve gotten some super awesome advice, though, and I’d love to hear any tip you might have for me, makeup or clothes or hair wise! I’m seriously struggling, y’all.

Also, someone needs to teach me how to smile….
