I had this fantastic idea to take photos for the blog at a nearby orange grove. I live right next to it and thought I had some sort of "light bulb" moment when I decided that an orange grove would make a great backdrop.
I was half right and half wrong.
For one, I do think this orange grove background is pretty cool and something different. But, I had no idea there would be so much mud and dirt involved. This is why there is no close-up shot of my Steve Madden booties. Also, I'm pretty sure certain I was trespassing.
Just wanted to show the back of the dress, which is actually the front of the dress. I felt it would look better if I wore it backward for the high neck and the low back.

Have you ever had an "a-ha" outfit post moment that sort of turned out to be an "oh no"?

OMG! I definitely think you were spot-on when choosing this backdrop. It's so fresh and different, and I absolutely love your outfit! You look bright, gorgeous and put-together! The back of the dress, by the way, is downright sexy!!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, the place is indeed perfect for the outfit and the season. Love what you are wearing, gorgeous necklace and that dress is amazing. The blazer is pretty cool too!

Look at you, breakin' the law and lookin' hot! Hehe. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love your jacket and those tights are AMAZING. I want them.
Fabulous, as always bubs ♥
ReplyDeleteHAHA Cheryl! You are a trooper girl! You know what? You got some great shots!!! So sorry for your boots, but hopefully they will be ok. I LOVE your dress. The back/front is awesome and so is the color! Great jacket and jazzy pizzazzy tights girlfriend. I went to a pumpkin patch a couple of years ago and they had some bees flying around. I must've been allergic, because my eyes puffed up A LOT! Look like i had been in a boxing match. HAHAHAHA

ReplyDeleteYay, I appreciate it when you do outfit posts because its always something I love, gorgeous shade of green on you and the jacket is the perfect accompaniment!
ReplyDelete#fashionbloggerproblems trying to find the right place to shoot your outfit! hehe
ReplyDeleteThat sucks about the mud. I like the dress backwards!
I think the potential trespassing charge and mud was worth it, it's a gorgeous background and perfect for your outfit.

I like the idea of the orange grove as a backdrop -- love the dress worn backwards!
ReplyDeleteLOL, Cheryl, on the trespassing! You're too naughty:P And OMG on the dress. The back is totes awesome! (That's right....I wrote "totes".)
ReplyDeleteI loved that you wore teal to the orange orchard! Very complementary! Love that you wore the dress backwards too! Just hope no one saw your butt :P with that slit. As for trespassing, I'm sure it was ok. Did you climb a fence? If not, I'm sure it was fine. Not like you were stealing oranges!
ReplyDeletelove all the colors here! =)
