So I have had just a couple days of feeling sorry for myself. I passed up a beautiful high waist gunmetal grey skirt at Express in order to rather buy Christmas gifts for family. I just knew God told me for once, quit buying clothes, and buy for others. Considering my husband's job situation, it was the best. Oddly, that night, a friend from work sent me a text message saying she was going to bring a bag of her old threads that no longer fit her anymore. She knows my thrift store obsession and thought I might like them! Needless to say, I will be featuring some "Gifts from Lauren" threads in my outfit posts.
So to make myself feel even better on days like today...I laced up my ballet shoes. I was a ballerina for 11 years and every time my husband is out for the day or the evening with friends, I can not help to put them on and dance around on my carpeted living room (ankles cant take the hard wood anymore!)
Blouse: Thrifted
Vest: Gift from Lauren
Skirt: H&M
Slippers: Prima Soft

these are adorable shots. i've always been fascinated by ballerinas...the fact that you can stand on your toes!! love this outfit too, especially with that white vest. :)
so wish i could dance like that :o)
okay. these pictures are gorgeous. i've always wanted to become a ballerina but i couldn't have the chance. i only could have ballet lesson for 3 years when i was in elementary so i don't have the flexibility like i was. but i do still have the spirit of dance!!
i just love ballet!! <3
I was a ballerina too! i miss those days a little
