So I'm ready to get back to my old ways. Refreshed! Revived! Rekindling my romance with make-up, clothes, and self-image!
We had a wedding to attend this weekend. It was an important one as my Mom and I were the matchmakers and we wanted to look our best. So first, I had to find the perfect outfit.
My Mom went to the mall and picked out a lovely outfit that I thought would be it. But here's a little note. Your body doesn't look the same after you've had a baby. Gravity starts taking hold. Some things are bigger. Some are smaller.
Wait, no. Not really. I haven't found anything smaller yet.
Anyways, I get the outfit home and I'm P-U-M-P-E-D to try it on. And here's what it looks like...
And before you ask, no. I'm not pregnant.
Let's just say that shirt wasn't exactly the right fit.
So we go to the mall together and we finally, FINALLY find the right outfit.
But then there was the issue with my complexion.
Or lack thereof.
You see, it's hard being as white as white can be and being married to a man that, well, isn't. A trip out in the sun does nothing but burns my skin unless I'm wearing SPF Turtleneck. But Nate? He gets a beautiful golden tan that I envy. That I've only ever dreamed of.
In comes the brilliant spray tan idea.
I blame this on my Mother. Is it really her fault? No. Did she drag me in to the "Mystic Tan Booth" herself? No. But by blaming her I take the blame off of myself and therefore I can't say that the following photos are my fault.
Now, I know that it looks like I'm covered in dirt. Believe me. However, this was after a shower AND exfoliation. And it was almost 24 hours after having it done. Not good folks. Not good.
Then there was the issue with the toenail. But I won't go into that.
Anyways, luckily everything came together and we were able to attend a very nice wedding. Elya was a stunning bride and the wedding was beautiful. Here's our finished looks...
And by the way, have I mentioned that my kid has teeth?
