Flowers Blooming in the Rain
______I feel like I've been dressing extra girly lately. Look at me wearing all these ultra feminine pieces. Where is the boldness, Ali? Where is that brash Viking heritage of yours? Hiding, it is. Hiding behind an outfit that consists of a flowery print skirt and a lace peter pan collared top.
______If my Viking ancestors ever saw me in this, they would probably be super ashamed and kick me out of their cool Viking tribe (that, or they would eat me). And even after doing so, I'm sure that they'd still be furious since Vikings really don't have control over their constantly raging emotions, and in turn, they'd probably have to run off to terrorize random villagers to let off even more steam (that, or they would eat the villagers). Wow, Ali, there's so much cannibalism in your post--chill out.
______Oh, I'm sorry. I've just been a little lost lately. It seems like I've approached a big old stop sign in my life, and I'm not entirely sure about how to get past it. I've been wanting to do everything bigger and better lately and just make something great, or do something extraordinary, or accomplish something so I feel like I'm moving forward in life. I mean, I really do feel like I've accomplished quite a bit this summer, but it still feels like there's something missing, something that must be done in order to solidify those accomplishments and kind of top it all off. I just hope that I can figure out what exactly it is that must be done to make my summer feel complete--and I've got a week to figure it out!

Lovely outfit!!! Beautiful top!!!
Very pretty outfit!
I know that feeling. Like I've stopped moving forward, like the summer is passing by so quickly and I don't have anything to show for it.
Help!
I do love your girly looks, that skirt is adorable, and I still think the vikings would approve of the anchor belt.
Chic on the Cheap
That certainly is one girly outfit! But I like it - I've been dressing extra girly myself lately...idk, must be some late-summer vibe in the air haha.
Hmm, I can understand wanting to end this summer on a bang. At least in some memorable way to mark it. Hope you'll find a way to do it!

Totally understand the stop sign thing, I'm experiencing it myself -_-
I don't think those VIkings would mind you dressing in a girly outfit, after all it's so pretty :P
You've got such a nice blog and as you already guessed I really like your style too. That skirt is perfect, just like the rest of yor outfit. All your pictures are amazing:)
PS. You're not at the front of the stop-sign, you've done great post and story, I would like to read some every day:) This is life, & la vita e bella:)

You look so beautiful, Ali! I adore the brightness of this skirt and the daintiness of the top. <3 Also, VIKING HERITAGE? awesome!! haha
personally, i feel like i haven't gotten too much "accomplished" this summer... but i DO feel like i've had a lot of fun. which is actually not something that i can usually say at the end of a summer...so i guess that's good!

you look lovely as always
& give it some time it will come at the right exact moment for the meantime enjoy every second :)
Kisses A.
I LOVE that skirt and belt! And I think it's okay to differ a little sometimes, maybe it's just another side of you that you've never really explored :)

Such a pretty skirt!
A viking ancestry?! Now that is quite awesome, I have to admit. You look darling - I love the peter pan collar and bright cheery print on your skirt. All perfectly paired together. Fall always holds new things. Summer has definitely gone by so fast for me too. Have a lovely week :) xo Marisa

Yes, this outfit is pretty girly! I'm loving the peter pan collar.
i love your top - the collar makes it so pretty
I'm sure there was at least ONE Viking out there who wore floral skirts on the battlefield. I'm loving the bright colors though and those chevron earrings are fantastic. :)
I hope you find that one thing you really want to accomplish before the Summer comes to an end. Good luck!!
You look so beautiful!
Lovely blog dear(:

I love this ultra girly outfit! If I was a viking, I wouldn't be mad at all :) (And hehe my school's mascot is a Viking so all the students at our school are called vikings.)The peter pan collar top is sooo pretty and so is the paint splatter skirt.
I hope you can figure out what to do to feel like your summer is complete. I have that feeling a lot too and it bugs me a lot when I can't figure it out.
p.s. that last image is stunning, the water droplets really stand out when the photo is in black and white!
Firstly, your pictures are amazing!! And I love everything about this outfit, your top is oh so lovely and that skirt is just perfect! You look beautiful!!

Sooo i somehow missed this post. O.o
yes im a bad blogger friend. but HEY im good since i was just looking at your blog and it didnt even come up in my bloglovin' feed :P
Anyways, im totally descended from cavemen not vikings. I kinda eat like a caveman. But you and your vikings could prolly take me and my cavemen. it's okay, Ali.
AND on a more normal note, did you wind up figuring out what that one thing was you needed to do? If you didn't, i'm sure you will soon. Everything happens for a reason, right? :)
