And Everything She Wants is Everything She Sees
What I’m Wearing I had an entirely different outfit idea in my head but in the morning when it was time to get dressed I just wanted to be comfy. Sometimes I just get lazy. This day was a visual representation of that laziness I suppose. Though casual, I felt kind of “bedazzled”, lol… it …
