Thursday Threads- Coral and Khaki

Today life is so good.
Today I am sitting in my classroom sipping my warm coffee.
I'm at peace.

Our house is all moved in.
Pictures tomorrow. I promise.

Life is beautiful my friends. I hope you see that.
I hope you see how beautiful YOU are too.

And I felt like I really needed to say that.
This week's outfit post takes place in my favorite field again. 
It's up Provo Canyon, almost to the very top. 
It's very sacred to me. 
Just beautiful. 
Beautiful energy and lovely vibes. 


Looking at these pictures, I look truly happy and comfortable to be in my field. 
If I ever get married again, I just may hold the wedding in this field. 
But, I am certainly not thinking about marriage. 

Just so you know. 


I wanted to dress in fall colors. 
A beautiful coral, with some browns.
And a flash of blue for the dark skies that come with fall.

I love that looking through these photos I can match the colors of my clothing to the colors in the background.


Do you see all this beauty?!


I'm going to tell you a secret about the way that I dress. 
For dresses that are mostly free form, like this coral one, 
I but XL. So that it fits longer!
 I normally belt my dresses anyways, and I can always take in the extra fabric around my bust.
Which I forgot to do for this one..

But yes, that's my secret. Most of the time, dress size doesn't matter. 
Unless it has darts and pleating..
Then I would get it in your size.
Unless you know how to sew.

  4. Ah now lets see - 11 pics of you, and 1 of the view. Wondering what you mean by "Do you see all this beauty?"

    1. Wondering what you mean by this comment. This is an outfit post. That is why I have more photos of me then nature. But the caption under the view says "Do you see all this beauty?" If you want to see more photos of the scenery feel free to look at other posts. Just be aware, Thursday Thread posts WILL have a lot of photos of me and my outfits.
