I wish I had more to say here. Other than I wanted to dress in a cute dress for the day. Little did I know at the time that it was kind of cold outside, and then my head started to hurt. So, I changed into loungewear. The set from Selkie I own, that I guess does look like camo. It, isn't.
This is the set.
The pink Selkie dress here has a pretty floral pattern and I wore it with a simple cardigan and some pink heels. The jewelry is from Etsy and Stonehart Jewelry. I bought everything myself, not a sponsorship at all.
It was a great outfit, what do I mean was. It is a great outfit!
I’m finally done with my dress! Finally finished! The dress design came from when I wanted a dress from Selkie. The dress I was wanting was always sold out in my size!

And the original dress has the basic ribbon, I decided to go with a lush black velvet r...

A pretty darn comfy dress and one you can definitely chase after your kids or pets in. But, something happened today that involved me looking in the mirror and going ew. I saw how I looked in it. I didn't like what I saw. I didn't like who I saw in the mirror. Which was me. I did not like how I looked in the dress. I didn't like how I looked at all. I did not like the person I was seeing in that dress in that moment. No. So, here is the thing. I am a recovering anorexic. I have body dysmorphia. I have OCD, literally I do, and this is on top of my other mental stuff. Stuff like BPD1, autism, adhd, dyslexia, I believe I have dyscalcia, which is why I am shit at math, no matter how it is taught to me. I am shit at it. Which is why of all the subjects I homeschool my older son with, math is the one I hire my kid a tutor for. The OCD is presente...
