Butterflies ...

Shiny T Tuesday has arrived again ... and this week's prompt is "Butterflies".

Now let's face it ... Mother Nature was having a really good day when she came up with the idea of butterflies.


They're like the perfect fairytale ... starting out all dull and ordinary and not very special ... and then emerging as the most beautiful, stunning, super model of them all.

And I'll tell you another thing of beauty ... the fact that I actually own a piece of clothing that fits fairly and squarely within this prompt.  Woo Hoo ... Shiny T Tuesday is meant to be about fashion ... and this week my post actually IS about fashion ... sorta ... kinda.


Here's my extra special ... supermodel style over the shoulder pose ...


Here I am spreading my butterfly wings ... otherwise known as tuck shop arms ... but see how cleverly this top disguises them.


Gisele Bundchen and Elle MacPherson eat your heart out ... there's a new girl in town ... but you'll have to look down ... she only comes up to your kneecaps.


Now if anyone doubted my commitment to the fashion blogging cause ... you need only see the other gift from Mother Nature I was battling during this highly professional photo shoot.

The wind was blowing an absolute gale and look up ...



Master 13 was beside himself with glee ... checking the Bureau of Meteorology ... as he does every time the slightest wisp of a cloud passes overhead.

Oh ... and if you're wondering where we are on the map ... it's a little hard to see ... because we are directly under the bright red dot.

But I digress ... again ... if you were a little confused as to what in the world this outfit has to do with butterflies ... then you just need to look a little bit closer.





SEE ... I am sane after all ... sorta ... kinda!

  2. What a delicious top. I do love angel/butterfly sleeves on clothes, lots of my vintage 1970s dresses have them, they are so pretty and sooooo flattering!
