Something New for 2012 and an Outfit Of The Day

I haven't done an outfit post in a while so I decided to take some quick pics Sunday after church at my parents house.  The weather wasn't cold, but still gloomy and a little cool!  Now I still need a better camera and a tripod so I can take better pictures, one day when I feel like dishing out the money for the camera I want then I will!!  

Random thought: You know losing weight is a great thing, but I can't buy clothes like I really want so my clothes are getting too big, sigh!!  I need to have my mom alter them for me!!


 
Silk Blouse: Sears,  Wide Leg Trousers: Ninewest (store ?),  Shoes: Shoeland,  Rings/Earrings: Random Beauty Supply Store,  Charm Bracelets: Tiffany, Pandora (Jared's) and made by me

Don't I just look sooooo happy right here!!  My sister took this but she didn't tell me to smile or anything before she snapped the photo.  Yeah I need a new photographer........ And no that is not a fro on my head LOL, I was wearing my hair curly (wet and go).  I try to not press my hair out too often, since I am natural I'm afraid to mess up my curl pattern. Even though parts of my hair in the front won't curl up anymore, but I have somethings to try at the advice of another wonderful blogger.




                               
 I thought I would try doing the back view photo that I see others do, but mine didn't turn out so cute, my back end is toooooooooooooo big, LOL!!  I was also trying out one of the new editing features that Picasa has with it's latest version and I think they are pretty cool!!!




















Here I'm trying another editing feature in Picasa, very cool!!  The 2 beaded bracelets you see here were made by me.  If you remember a while back I posted here about my venture into jewelry making, well that hasn't stopped, I have added bracelets to that now.  I'm working with one of my sisters on starting a jewelry line, so keep an eye out for that to come SOON in 2012!!  I'll be doing a post on what we have made so far before we launch offically!!  SO EXCITED!!!!



















Here is another picture edited using another new feature on Picasa.  They have definitely made some improvements to Picasa, but they still need to add more!!


Ok that is all for now, my lunch break is over.  Everyone have a great rest of the day!!
