Day 2: Tuck It In

Day 2 of the 21 Day Challenge. 

(Day 1: Remix One Item)

The theme today is Tuck It In. Tucking is decidedly not my forte. Even when I was young and Mom wanted my shirt tucked in so I would look all spiffed up for the 80s, I was bad at it. Today's picture proves the same thing. Since I figured I couldn't handle it all day, the tuck was admittedly only for the picture. I actually sat on the floor of my closet this morning, trying to think of something I could tuck. It almost made me late for my early meeting.

Oh and those are the alstromerias I bought today. Along with rootbeer, chocolate chip cookies, and something to pedi my summer heels. Pampered myself!

I'm gonna soak up the sun while it's still free

Can you see how I'm still working on the cheesy factor when taking pictures of myself? Oh yeah. I could maybe tone that down a bit.

This outfit was all about the H & M, that delightful store found in large cities around the world. There's just something so compelling about it. And what I'm wearing even includes H & M clothes from different locations.

Type 1ism of the day: it turns out that I've always loved "beach towels." You know the brightly colored ones with pictures of fruit, cartoon characters, or the ocean. Well, as I was getting out the shower this morning and drying myself off with my Koolaid towel (which I collected enough Koolaid points to redeem!, circa 1995), I love beach towels! They are perfectly Type 1!
