Happy Friday Eve and welcome to A Labour of Fashion. Know what else welcome to another Check and Stripe outfit. Tis true I am continuing with the fun black and white pattern mixing looks.
Weekend Plans
I am looking forward to the weekend. We have company coming (yes again). We love entertaining and I am pretty sure people love to be entertained in our home. This weekend is double the fun though. The 2nd Annual Orleans Craft Beer Fest is on. An amazing experience that I am excited to participate in.
Funny thing, I had the most amazing time last year. Kent and I went on the Saturday and had a blast. Here is the strange part, I cannot find any pictures, snaps, Facebook posts, Inst pictures nothing. It’s like the mose amazing day never even happened in my social world.
I have a feeling I took pics with my Iphone and then they got deleted. Man I wish for the good ole days when you plugged your iphone into your computer and all the pictures downloaded. This darn cloud thing is not working for me. One more thing I need to figure out how to utilize better.
What is the point of the cloud for storage if every time I delete a picture on my phone it leaves the cloud. I thought the cloud was there to free up my phone storage issues.I must be doing something really wrong, so help me please.
A Love of Checks and Stripes
This was an accidental outfit. My check top I always wore with a fun long stripe skirt. It was a summer look that has served me well. I really wanted to wear it but when I went looking for the skirt I could not locate it anywhere. It is quite possible that I tossed it in the thrift bag last fall. Why I would do that is totally beyond me but I have no other explanation for it’s disappearance.
Maybe one day it will re-appear. I believe I may have thought it was getting too small. Possibly in a strange twist of will I tossed it to goodwill. No matter I thought the H&M Pants might prove a fun new look. I added the white boots again and my new cardi.
