We had SO much fun! Highly recommend!

I promise I am actually asking, but also, I need to vent.

I have tried SO many brands, and none of them fit right. Many brands don’t carry an XS, or if they do, it’s still too big. Old Navy was close, but they’re too short, even after having them lengthened at a tailor. I have a pair of banana republic size 0 from goodwill that fit great, but only because they’re cropped. When I tried ordering a new pair, they were too big, and also $60+ each.

I just received two pairs of Halara pants. I hear about them constantly and decided to give them a try. They have tall sizes too, so I was hopeful. I ordered an XS tall. Look at how baggy and loose they are! I am so beyond frustrated. I’ve spent so much money, wasted so much time, and I still have only a couple pairs that fit decent enough to not completely ruin my outfit. I can’t help but feel that constantly wearing ill fitting pants makes me put less “put together”.

I am not even that skinny!!! I’m 5’6” 123lbs. That’s a BMI of 19.9, which is very solidly in the normal, healthy range. My thighs jiggle and look like they’re stuffed with cottage cheese and my tummy hangs over my lower cut waistbands. I refuse to believe that my size is that much of an outlier. I can’t even imagine what it’s like for women who are genuinely extra thin!

Someone save me with the secret thin people pants, or if you can’t, commiserate with me because I am so frustrated! 😭

I got this dress to wear in a wedding, and I loveeee it! I’m struggling to see the vision with almost any shoes or jewelry though. I have to wear nude or silver shoes, I’m leaning towards silver and thinking I should embrace the sparkle and carry a sparkly silver bag as well.

Summer wedding, mostly outside, so also I’m trying to avoid thin heels that could sink in the ground. Ideas? Inspiration? Thanks!

I tried to line it in yellow the way I did the bunny ears and such, and it looked super weird next to the dark blue, so I covered it up (poorly lol).

I could have picked a lighter color for the umbrella, but other than that, how would you handle the light there? A lighter shade of blue instead of yellow? A darker yellow? Something else? So many of you have the most beautiful lighting effects! 😍😭

And I hate it. 🥲🤣 besides the fact that it just doesn’t work here (what kind of tablet is THAT bright??), the shade of grey I chose made the colors I put on top bleed and blend weird.

How do you/would you do an effect like this? If I was doing it over, I think I would try just adding some blue highlights to the objects in front of the tablet instead.

I love the pop that a white gel pen gives, but sometimes I think it makes it look like everything is rubber, lol.

BUT, I love how tracing these bubbles in white came out though! 🤍🫧
