Pink Skirt. Green Tee. All Wrinkled.

Green oversized tee has been sitting in the clean clothes crumpled heap for days. The curves of my body knocked out most of the wrinkles. Pink pencil skirt is linen and therefore wrinkles with every move. I don't feel slovenly though. Real women wear wrinkled clothes. At least this one does. Sometimes.

Perhaps it's the elegant vintage Coro earrings giving an air of sophistication. Maybe it's the chain and rhinestone necklace adding a bit of edgy trend. It could be the faux snakeskin and black sandals that make just about every outfit look great.

It works. I like it.

Ironing clothes seems like such a hassle now. I try to wear clothes that don't require ironing. I don't want to invest the 15 minutes. In the pre Violet days, I enjoyed it and found it relaxing. Now, it's just an anxiety ridden chore. I don't like her anywhere near the iron due to irrational mama crazy so I have to pull it from it's hiding place, set up the board, keep Violet away from the hot iron and at the same time keep an eye on her. Toddlers are crafty. No, thank you.

I was particularly drawn to the green and pink color combination. I'm not sure I've ever paired the two together. I put in on just to see what it looked like. I tossed it aside because it felt too bright (says the woman who wore a neon green skirt). Tried a couple of other options and they appeared incredibly dull.

I hopped back in green and pink outfit. Looked in the mirror. Saw some wrinkles. Shrugged. Kept it moving. Off to enjoy tiny, expensive yet tasty plates of food and strong, fruity cocktails at a tiki bar.

Do you wear wrinkled?

Today is Ms. Violet's birthday! She's 3 years old. I've posted her birth story a few times already so I won't repost but check it out if you want to read the story of my photobombing sidekick.

As photogenic as you are; I bet you would look good modeling a paperbag. Great combo; the colors look really amazing together.

I completely wear wrinkled...if it's really bad, I spray it with Wrinkle Release or throw it in the dryer with something damp! At toddlers are crafty. The one time I did iron, my toddler burned his hand after repeated warnings that he should not touch!

I hang my wrinkly items on my shower curtain rod whilst showering. The steam gets the wrinkles right out! Those dryer balls work too though. I love this combo. The neon colors against your skin are just stunning. Elegant, even if it's wrinkly!
