So, I got on my computer, hit the shortcut to my blog and…
THE STORY
…it wasn’t there. Wait, what?! O.M.G. Just the sad couldn’t load page face with the message “could not connect to server”. Hmm…just a glitch I think. I try again. Same message. I try it on my phone. Gone. Graphic perhaps, but my dinner almost came up all over my keyboard. I restarted my computer. Because, well, you know…that fixes everything. Ya, no it doesn’t. Still no Fashion Fairy Dust. I tried any number of ways to get to it all to no avail. I went to the Bluehost site and did a check on my domain. It said that it was fine. W.T.H??? It was the opposite of fine. Before my head decided to explode all over my wall I stepped away from the computer and took some deep breaths. And prayed. You know, to the god that is in charge of style blogs. Apparently he was taking requests because when I tried it a little later it was back and running. What happened? I have not a clue. Now I know enough to get by, but I am far from tech savvy. I guess I never thought a whole lot about my blog going down because it never has. My question to you my friends is this, if you have a blog, has it ever gone down? If so, what does one do when that happens?
THE OUTFIT
And my tunic obsession continues. This burgundy print tunic dress is exactly the same as the mustard yellow print tunic dress I wore a few weeks back. It too came from Shein and I love it just as much as the yellow one. This time instead of adding the lace extender underneath, I decided to go with leggings and open back booties. Since the lace wasn’t there to give the look some texture, I added my fringe knit vest (gilet) from Firefly clothing on top. It not only added texture, but it also gave some shape to the tunic.
THE TIP
To add texture and interest to an outfit, think about adding a layer. Over or under; either one will do. It’s a quick and simple tweak that can make all the difference in an outfit.
