Shrunk

 Husband accidentally shrunk this shirt by drying it. I was pretty devastated because I love it {and it was only $5!}. Luckily I was able to tuck it into a skater skirt and you couldn't tell it was awkwardly shrunken.Taran learned his lesson with laundry and will no longer wash anything of mine unless it's underwear or sweats. Bless his heart, he felt really bad about the whole situation.

My dogs think that they are models. Every time I whip out my camera and put self timer on to take an outfit picture they're right under me. Normally it's Stella, but now I guess Mila wanted her 15 minutes of fame.
I did catch an adorable yawn in this shot though.
I love my babies :)

I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day and got to spend it with anyone they love. Unfortunately Taran and I didn't get to enjoy the day together because of our clashing schedules, but it's ok. We did have the morning together and I got up early to make him a Valentine breakfast. I even made pink pancakes.
It was simple, but it's fine with me, we'll have many more Valentine's together in the future and I spend every day loving him and telling him so!

 

Torso

If they invented some type of plastic surgery to elongate your spine and stretch your torso, I would probably do it.
Actually I probably wouldn't do any type of plastic surgery if I'm being honest...
But while I'm on the subject of torsos I'll talk about mine. It's short! Don't get me wrong, I am ok with my body, it could be worse...and I'm lucky to even have all my limbs, no matter how short they are. The problem with having such a short torso is that everything is SO long on me. I layered 2 camis under this button up today and the first half of my shift it was over my shorts, but bunched up at my stomach because if I pulled it down tight you wouldn't even see my shorts. Then I thought I would try tucking them into my shorts, but that caused them to bunch up around my butt and look worse!
Mainly I just get a little disheartened when an outfit doesn't look like the mannequin or model when I try it on because they are long everywhere. Lets, arms, torso....etc. I don't complain about it too much because, like I said, it could be so much worse. The only thing that sucks is trying on a crop-top during this season and having it not actually crop on you.
I am proud of my petite-ness, and I like standing at only 5'2". It's just one of those things!

What are some things that you struggle with styling on your body?
