It's a bit of an edgehy photo today, I accidentally looked out of the window when the self-timer ended. As a result I look a bit dreamy and my hair appears in a quiff because my bun was lopsided.
I get to showcase my spectacular poncho with my model stance. As if being tie-dyed wasn't enough, there's double tie-dye. The other side is red, burgundy, plum, orange and white, but I felt like matching today, as my housemate advised. My poncho is quite the centre piece. It is a bit cumbersome at time, especially when using draws or reaching in general, but it's worth it. It's also warm. I think it's dramatic and the tassels add an elegant finish, also the fact that it's not constructed out of wool enhances this. I remember in the early noughties when everyone went mad for ponchos, I still have a pink and purple one my Nan knitted for me. Good times.
The poncho is only aiding my quest for volume. I'm like a tiered cake, but one that continues to further out the higher it gets. All the large triangles going on today.
Finally, got my red lippy to take things (i.e. my face) up a notch, and it clashes nicely with all the blue. My trainers, meanwhile, are keeping it low key.
