Hello there! I wanted to do a quick little post tonight to give my brain a bit of a rest from all of the stress and craziness I'm currently feeling! Today, I worked a shift at the poetry festival and saw my first reading of the festival. It was really a great experience. Hearing others read their work makes me feel a bit inadequate, but mostly, it gives me such an incredible feeling of happiness. To hear someone read their own poetry is a pretty wonderful thing. Now, I'm freaking out about my reading tomorrow! I'm so very nervous about the whole thing, even though I know it's a good experience. I can't help but feel my poems aren't good enough and that no one wants to hear them. After this post I'm going to practice my reading again, and I guess just hope for the best tomorrow. It's funny how it will only be about 15-20 of my life but I'm stressing over it so much. Oh well, I guess it's just in my nature.
Anyway, I wore this outfit yesterday just to go over to Zak's house. I didn't do all that much except watch tv and eat Chinese food and Ben&Jerry's (diet? what diet?). I guess I just like to dress up?
Top, Trench: H&M
Skirt, Flats: Urban Outfitters
Tights: Hue
Until Tomorrow,
Nicole
Ben and Jerry's! Oh, the delectable flavors. Not too friendly for the waistline, but how can I help it? You're outfit is lovely. The necklace looks great against the top.
ReplyDeletemm. Ben and Jerry's :) My friend and I went to free scoop day the other day. Bliss! And the line wasn't even that long--probably took about five minutes.I love that drapey top. Especially when it's belted like that. The color is just so pretty.
ReplyDeleteThat top is BEAUTIFUL. Oh my gosh. You look so pretty! My advice for your poem reading? Wear your favorite outfit in the ENTIRE world and wear your lucky underwear and some crazy socks. It'll make you feel more confident I promise!
ReplyDeleteThis outfit looks so soft and pretty! I love the photo of you next to the bush full of blossoms.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute outfit! I love how soft and flowy the top is :)

That sounds unbelievably nerve-wracking! But I'm sure you'll be great, and I'm sure that everyone else feels equally nervous and inadequate. Good luck tomorrow!
