Encouragement

I've Been Tagged!

I apologize, dear friends!  I was supposed to have posted the fourth part of Peder's story... YESTERDAY.   But, alas, due to farm work, which consisted of picking up rocks in the field (we always have an abundant crop of these things every year) all morning long, and a fellowship night with friends, obviously, that did not happen.

I had this post ready.  So, to appease your demands, not that there has been any... I decided to publish this one, while I finish Peder's.  =]


I was tagged by the lovely Storyteller!


1. How would you describe your style?
     Comfortable.  And cute.  I like cute.  ^__^
     Color is another thing, I love color!

2. What are your wardrobe staples?
     Skirts, cardigan, blouse, and ballet flats. 
      Now, when I'm out and about on the farm, that's a different story.  I have been seen in overalls, farm boots, and cowboy hat.  Or, in summertime, shorts, tank, and farm boots or flip-flops -- depending on what we are doing, working hay or garden...

3. Most expensive clothing item you own?
     Oh, my.  That would have to be my medieval dress.  A deep red, full gown I purchased from Etsy.  Love it!  I spent $150 (yes, I know), that I had saved up.  I wore it on a Daddy-Daughter Date, when my daddy took my sisters and I out for dinner and a show.  I admit, there might have been some staring...

Pictures coming soon!

4. Most wanted item?
     Oo! It would have to be the Pointe Shoe Flats (to your left).  So cute!  Though, I never had pointe lessons during the few years I took ballet, I love these!  (Yup.  Found on Pinterest.) But I can't find them anywhere...

5. Favorite designer?
     Erm.  Don't have one...

6. How much do you spend on clothing?
     Typically between $2 to $20, with the exception of a certain medieval dress... 

7. Favorite places to shop?
     Goodwill!  That's where much of wardrobe comes from.  I say "my wardrobe," but in all actuality, my sisters and I share one.  =]  And I love it!

8. Favorite Fragrance?
     Hmm.  I love the smell of Honeysuckle in summertime.  But Japanese Cherry Blossom cuts in pretty close.  And I'm using my knowledge of Bath & Body Works fragrances to decide...

9. Favorite way to do your hair? 
     Double French Braid Bun.  At least, that's what I'm gonna call it.  It's almost a mouthful...  I do two French-braids, then twirl and pin into a braided bun at the nape of my neck.

10. Most prized possession?
       Probably the dress my sister made me for Easter Sunday.  I love the pattern!  
       Pictures of this one coming soon!  (Can you guess? I'm wanting to have a photoshoot, in order to update some pics...)


And now, it's my turn to pass this on!

I tag these ladies:

To each is given a bag of tools,
A shapeless mass, and a book of rules,
And each must make, ere life is flown,
A stumbling block or a stepping stone.
