Be Bold

I love when you can wear one piece of clothing and really let it be the statement of your whole look. The pattern on this dress is bold and speaks for itself--loud accessories or crazy sunglasses are not needed. Small earrings, matching shoes, and a bracelet, easily complete this look. I literally threw this on in five to go meet my hubs for a last minute dinner.

 

I truly feel these are the best type of outfits for the summer months!

 

Hope you are all having a great week, I think I have finally caught up on my sleep from staying up late in Columbus this weekend. #oldladyprobz We had so much fun though--we shopped til we dropped, made candles at The Candle Lab, ate soo much great food and got to celebrate one of my besties birthdays! Can't get much better than that.

I am so excited y'all--I FINALLY (after 2 years of blogging) got myself a DSLR. You guys gave me some FABULOUS advice when I asked which ones you liked best! I went with the Nikon D3100--and LOVE it (I scored it for a steal on Ebay). I am still learning how to use it--aka I have NO idea what I am doing lol.

 

Plus, I am a ding dong and of course forgot to check if this was wireless remote compatible--and it is not, whomp whomp. Because I take most of my pictures on a tri-pod I am having trouble focusing without one--any suggestions?!

 

Any other suggestions on the Nikon D3100 and how to best use it? What settings do you use the most for blogging? I am trying to figure out how to blur the background--but obvi that didn't work quite yet :)
