Mandakini: inspiration monday: high-waist not, want not

happy monday, all! i hope your weekends were fantabulous. eva and i went to a mommy/daughter tea party on sunday and it was so fun. we ate homemade popovers and cucumber sandwiches and eva got to wear her very best high-tea dress. i wore what i thought was going to be my inspiration monday outfit to the party, and after i saw pictures of the outfit, i decided that i needed to never wear these specific jeans again. some bodies just weren't made for super wide-leg jeans, and i will concede that i am one of them. so after a few changes and a few photo shoots later, here's what i came up with. i love high-waisted pants...i think i just need to find some that are not so loose and/or wide legged. but i do have these vintage pants, and i won't get rid of them. they are a perfect pair of pants that fit me just right in the waist, and just for that reason, i love them.

here is today's inspiration:

and here is my take:

chris always takes one last picture of me when i think we are done. it usually ends up as a picture of me walking towards him, holding my hand out for the camera. he thinks it's funny. today i beat him to the punch and belted out my best kissy face.
