Hell hath frozen over people, because I actually wore an outfit that revealed my rarely-seen bellybutton. I would be more ashamed if this outfit didn’t make me feel so good. I loved every second of sharing a narrow slice of midsection to the 104 degree world on Friday. I went to one fun party and one lame party with Joanna and Margot, and then
(just when our feet nearly fell off) got picked up by Indiana for a delicious meal at Eastside Showroom with the Free People folks. It was the perfect fashion party outfit, actually. The wind caught the tail of my shirtdress!
I doubt I would have ever been caught dead in this outfit if it weren’t for my year-long blog experiment and feeling so frigging WARM. It’s weird what you end up wearing when you just dare to do something crazy and different. It’s sometimes weird and uncomfortable, but other times hits just the right note and gives you the feeling that you can do anything. Gosh, I love fashion.

awww… cute bellybutton ;o)
ps we need to finally get together lady!
Yes! Let’s! This week is nuts. How about next week?
I totally feel you sister. Those small things can make you feel so COOL and DARING 😀 I never show my belly button, but I do enjoy a bit of midriff baring with crop tops and high waisted bottoms! you look fab
You can wear such things with your great figure.
So there’s really no need to be ashamed 😉
Looks so nice on ya
LOVE me a little belly button! This looks awesome, and I really love that you are taking chances with clothing choices. Go, blogging!
At this point, I applaud anyone in Austin that finds ways to show a little more skin. It’s just too hot to be fully clothed!! I love your shirtdress- it’s cool and cute, and (with that little midriff showing) just the right amount of sexy
Oh, Austin heat: you make us do things we never would have thought of. Thank you.
And you totally rocked the dress so you should feel a total fashion success!

i think it’s just perfect! love the dress as a top!
Damn guuurl. Don’t hurt ’em! I loved that top on Friday, and I still love it now — on a tasteful Monday. You know what else I love? Your bluebonnet tattoo on the thigh. And another thing? Your dance moves. And? Long John Silvers. Especially in sleeve form.
Thank you for your comment dear!
Sadly we haven’t got an American Apparel store round here, and I dislike ordering clothes online. Plus I don’t wanna spend so much on a skirt I can easily sew. Same for Zara… Plus I’d have to shorten them anyway. So finding one vintage is an option, though the thrift stores in Germany – at least here – aren’t full of great clothes like in the UK or US. Sadly. I’m living in the wrong country! Or just the wrong state. Guess the fastest and most simple way for me getting such a skirt in the colour I want is sewing it. At least I’ve got time for this now.
Wish you a great week!
xo
love the way you are rocking that shirt dress open over your denim shorts!! What a great way to show some skin and try yo stay cool in the crazy heat!!
Toooootally digging the belly button! In a good way… promise.
I really like the cool way you wore that top with your high-waisted shorts. It looks so nice and breezy for a hot day!
You are totally rocking this look. I love it on you! You pulled off classy, boho, and chic all in one look.
