Apparently my whole body numbs over when I have to publicly speak. This is what happened when I spoke in church today. I was very, very nervous. And then very, very relieved when it was all over. My bladder was very relieved too. Because as soon as I sat back down I had to go REALLY bad. Real bad, guys. I crossed my legs real tight until the end and everything was ok, but those nerves man. They really do a number on me. So that's why THIS is my happy face. Carefree and completely blissful again. I almost wish we'd taken the time to find a grassy meadow for these pictures, so I could frolic and play with the butterflies. And I'm actually not that big of a fan of butterflies. That's just how carefree I am right now.P.S. You guys! Sarah from A tiny bit of Sparkle asked me to be a part of her 'blog du jour' series over on her adorable blog! Check it out!

Girl, you need to post your outfit details!! That skirt is bomb.
CLOTHED MUCH, a modest fashion blog
Public speaking is (apparently) in the top 3 phobias for people. Glad you made it through ;)
Sidenote: I was going back through your blog archives and noticed you used to have VERY dark hair! And I'm PRETTY SURE you said you'd NEVER go blonde again :P WEll, can I just say I'm glad you did?? I love you with the lighter hair.
Lookin' great, as per usual.
I showed your blog to my friend that works at Vogue & she said your style is ridiculously amazing, just thought you should know :-)
LOVE this outfit!
OMG! Divalicious shoes and skirt!
Glad you're back to carefree again. Speaking in public is my worst nightmare. I will NEVER do it again. You're not the only person who finds it anxiety-inducing. Hope you guys had a happy weekend :-)
Super suuuuuper lovely!! I love all the fun poses!
I get nervous speaking in church too...especially since mine is full of very old people...haha!
I hate hate hate speaking in public. I managed to make it through my public speaking class for college, but that was the end of my public speaking career. Even worse is when they make you use a microphone. I can imagine what a complete feeling of relief to have it over you must have now.
Hi! I just found your blog, your style is so lovely! :)
I agree with Elaine- the outfit is to die for! Mucho kudos for the amazing fashion sense, and also for the public speaking ;) it's scary stuff, but the more you do, the easier it gets! It's become kinda a rush.
You look fantastic. You should be jumping for joy. Looking fab and conquering public speaking. Double Whammy!

I agree! Please tell us where you get your adorable clothes. Oh my goodness, I am totally the same! I'm fine speaking in a small group but once I get up on that stand I forget how to talk and my voice gets all shaky, it's great. haha
You look amazing! Those shoes, oh my goodness. I WANT THEM.

Just found your blog via Hoboken. Cute, cute, cute style!
Love your outfit!! So cute, might be one of my favorites!
You are gorgeous! As is your blog.
And guess what? We're twins because I spoke in sacrament meeting today too and I know EXACTLY the blissfulness you are describing. As soon as you sat down, wasn't that the best feeling ever?
Until 7 or 8 months when I have to do it all over again..

I do okay when I speak publicly, I just some butterflies in my stomach and mess up 3-4 times. Other than that, I'm fine :).
Very cute outfit. I would have never thought to put that pink cardigan and that striped skirt together. You're a fashion genius. And for those of you who wanted to know her outfit details, there under the last pictures in the post.

Okay, I love everything about this outfit! The top half is girly and sweet, the bottom half is edgy and chic. Perfect! And it's so refreshing to see that everything is from affordable stores! Love it!
