My biggest fear hindered my outfit photos & Your Weekly Round-up
You guys, happy Saturday! Hope you’re doing something fun and relaxing during this beautiful weekend.
Here’s just a little fun Saturday fashion for you. This is the only picture I got of this outfit. Keep reading and I’ll tell you why.
- Top: LOFT (on sale! similar)
- Shorts: Target (on sale!)
- Necklace: JewelMint
- Bracelets: JCrew warehouse sale
So I wore this outfit one day last week and as I was going through the outfit-pic-routine… I snapped this first photo and boom. I looked down. And swirling around my feet were not one, not three, but five LARGE bees (which, by the way, were in open-toed sandals… my feet, not the bees).
Now I am DEATHLY afraid of bees. DEATHLY afraid. Like, I can’t even express how terrified I am of bees. I don’t know why. I know it’s totally irrational. But I would rather gargle bleach than get near a bee.
Okay, that’s an exaggeration. But seriously. I’m terrified.
SO, long story short, I snapped that one outfit photo (pictured above) and high-tailed it to the car and headed to work.
Yeah, so that happened. Do you have any serious fears? Are you deathly afraid of something totally irrational?
On to this weeks weekly round up!:
- saturday: casual saturday fashion & weekly round up
- sunday: humble and willing
- monday: #YOLOMONDAYS and the $5 skirt, what! what!

thanks, jessica! glad to know i’m not the only one!
I happen to be abnormally afraid of beattles. Those little buggers have never done anything to me but I am so freaked out of them! But the fear that usually interrupts my outfit photos is people…even though I take my pictures on “the street” I’m pretty freaked out of people walking by!

girl i am with you! beetles are SO SCARY! i don’t know why 🙂 🙂
I was finally stung by a bee last year for first time ever. Oh boy it hurt! It was right before a triathlon I was doing and it affected my ability to bike. I get your fears sister! I’m totally afraid of big, hairy spiders and of snakes of any sort. Oh and put me outside camping I a think I hear a bear everyother second. SCARY!

thank you so much, megha!
LOL..i am imagining a bunch of stylish bees in open toe sandals!! Glad that you made out safe, I have bitten badly by a bee and really scared of them!!
hahahahahah that is a hilarious image. oh stylish bees 🙂 🙂
I get woozy when getting shots and straight up pass out getting blood drawn and yet…I have tattoos. I think they tickle or sting depending but for medical reasons needles take the breath out of me LOL. I’ll never forget going to donate for the first time and fainting on the gym floor.
Love the pairing of polka dots and brights! Also, I don’t have a penny to donate right now (for your mission trip) but I’ll be praying for you guys. Missions are a beautiful thing. I went to Mexico and built houses and gave drama performances. Changed my life. I’m so glad you’re choosing to go back!
girl i am the same way – me and needles are NOT FRIENDS. lol! and thank you SO much for your prayers. they mean the WORLD to us!
We all have fears,and many of them can be irrational. Me? I hate having blood drawn. I cannot give blood. I’m ridiculously scared. Why? No idea. Not afraid of needles. Shots are not a problem. But taking blood? I pass out. Really easily. Fret not, it’s ok!!
me too, jamie! i HATE having blood drawn!!!!
Love the blouse and the yellow shorts! Perfect for summer 🙂
<3, natasha @ twenty-something blog

My 4 year old is terrified of bees as well. 🙂 I LOVE that top! Would look super cute with a brightly colored cardigan over the top as well!

Aw!! My sister is also really scared of bees…she’s been scared of them since we were little! I’m really scared of heights, but I never was growing up. I just started having all these crazy dreams about being up high and tripping and not being able to stand up because I was too scared and then I started feeling that way irl. 🙁 sadness.
PHEW! i’m not alone 🙂 🙂 i’m scared of heights, too!!
