Back to business …

Now that we’ve entered the †Easter† season, I’ve continued to prepare for my dissertation defense

Right down to what I wear!

I actually sought consult from my personal stylist/classmate who finished his Ph.D. two years ago

As of this month!

I ended up scoring another A’GACI number that matches up with almost all-of-the-above ~ plus has this ☼spring’s☼ on-point trend: polka dots!

Then I had to remind myself of this scripture that I came across during †Lent†:
Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
Therefore do not worry, saying, “What shall we eat?” or “What shall we drink?” or “What shall we wear?” For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of †GOD† and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” ~ Matthew 6:25-27, 31-34

This past weekend, I took my latest photo gig to my fam friend’s 50th birthday party ~ ’50s style! Before I strapped on my cam and shot snaps, I strapped on my suspenders and shot a smile!

Since I seldom have time to shop, much less the money to invest on a full-fledged poodle skirt complete with petticoat

I just created labels from photos of real French poodles who I professionally photographed!

Presenting: my micro mini poodle skirt on a budget!

To complete the look: my high school varsity letterman jacket * my grad ring on a chain * my cat bobby socks * my bowling shoes {Stevies by Steve Madden}

My beloved felines seemed to think that I was looking fine!

My big champ cat is the #BOMBdotCom ~ as in the beautiful #photobomb dot com!

Of course, my furr babies also make the purrfect models!

✌Deuces✌ That makes 2 for Tuesday Beauty!
