So I guess today I was inspired by Minnie Mouse. Just kidding...but after looking at these photos I thought I kind of resembled her. You'd be surprise how many random people over the years have come up to me and have told me I remind them of Minnie. Silly as it sounds, this I am not kidding about.
Perhaps it's my avid love for oversized hair bows. Blame it on my mother (though I consider this a good thing). As a child, my mom made gorgeous ornate hair bows for a nearby children's boutique. They had lovely things on them: buttons, tulle, lace, grosgrain ribbon. I wish I still hung on to a few of them, as I would likely wear them today. She was way ahead of her time with those beauties. I don't think my little sis and I ever left the house without one in our hair. Thus continues my love for bows to this very day. And we all lived happily ever after.
The End.

Jacket (on sale) & Tights: Urban Outfitters

I can't get over how awesome you hair look all the time, maybe I should start wearing bows if it will make my hair look as good as yours! I rarely do my hair, for realzies! haha

You look wonderful! I love your little story about why you love bows so much, and I also love the hair bow your wearing in this post! :)
ReplyDeleteI adore your hairbows- they're completely your trademark and where they might make someone else look childish, they always perfectly compliment what you're wearing and never come off as anything but adult. They're never really reminded me of Minnie Mouse, but with your polkadot dress I can see a slight resemblance- except for your lack of tail :)
ReplyDeletexox,
