what i wore- self session and some rambling about childhood forts





dress: forever21, jacket:3buckthriftfind!, scarf:b-day present from bro, boots:kohles. earrings:forever21

this self session was pretty fun, way more challenging considering i did it among the bluffs and it was freaking freezing outside! but it was fun, i'd been wantin' to do a shoot in the woods for awhile now.
i love those bluffs so much, you know the top picture where i'm leaning against a little old wood board wall? yeah, that used to be part of the coolest fort ever. like something from peter pan, complete with windows, doors, old chairs and a fire pit. oh yeah, and a foot bridge. sadly everything but that little wall and foot bridge is gone *pout*. the fort was all destroyed in a storm a few years back, there was a giant cedar tree, and it feel smack down in the middle of the fort. the fall of 10' me and my cousins went and cleared the area up, working like we were being paid for it, cutting, hacking, getting scratched to smithereens. it was, needless to say, good times. i love doing stuff like that.
and i'm sure if we'd had more time we would have rebuilt that fort. but maybe someday i'll take my kids down there and we'll rebuild it, thats always something to look forward too.

i hope you guys have a fantastic week, mine is already lookin' busy but great, keep your heads up,kids!

  3. I've been thinking that my boots would look fabulous with some of my dresses. I just need to start a collection of colorful tights.

  5. I love your outfit. I've had my eye on some ribbed tights at Target for awhile. Your dress reminds me of one of mine!

    Forts were the best. My siblings and I built dozens of them and they always had a special enchantment about them. Love it!

  7. Wow, you took all those pictures yourself?! I never would'a guessed.
    Mmm, your discription of the fort brings back memeories of the forts I made with friends, behind a shed or in a group of trees.
    Boots, boots, boots. Gotta get me some.
