JUDGE NOT!!!!

Hello lovelies... I know I said I would post the I <3 Thrifting ATLANTA Chapter pics but I'm still sorting thru the pic's. So, I decided to post pics from last weekend instead.

Have you ever seen someone in a outfit & you think to yourself who do he/she think they are? Or WHY is he/she wearing that? Or That outfit/shoes would look better on me!!!! At one time or another we may have been guilty of saying at least one of these statements whether we want to ADMIT it or NOT!
Welp, I overheard a conversation among two guys saying that if you wear SKULLS: you are a devil worshipper… O REALLY????!!!! I truly understand if you don’t like SKULLS for whatever reason but to go to the extent to call someone a DEVIL worshipper is a blow below the belt and simply JUDGEMENTAL!!!!
  
Playing around in the truck w/ the camera - check out my earrings... they are HAUTE!

I love the sheer detail on this shirt and how the clasps are invisible 
I rocked this skull baseball cap as a Fashion Statement and didn't mean to scare, offend, or cause negative vibes. The hubby wanted to go to the movies and the movie started in 1hr. That meant I had less than 30 minutes to perform a miracle. Without second thoughts... I grabbed this skull cap (literally) because I’m transisting into my “NATURAL DO” and if you are natural you know that the 1st few months are more like a “NATURAL DON’T”!!!!
Sunny Summer Saturday - Just arrived at the Movies & before time!

My Movie of choice - Bad Teacher starring Cameron Diaz & Justin Timberlake

Showing off my "FIRE & DESIRE" earrings before seating at: Cinemark Tinseltown  
As much as a person may say words doesn’t hurt I was a little concerned: So, I told my mom about it and she replied: “Lynn, you know who you are and only have to answer to ME and the MAN UPSTAIRS. No matter what you do, wear, and/or say you can’t please everybody. There will always be people that will have opinions about what is wrong and what is right...what’s important is that you are doing right. Life is too short to deal with naysayers and what people think you should be doing or what you shouldn’t be doing according to their standards. If you like it wear it... You look nice and I’m going to always love you for who you are”!!!!
WOW!!!! My MOM always know what to say… she loves unconditionally & loves me NO MATTER what I wear!!!!
To top it off... I wore the RED Classic Chuck Taylor kicks!
Don’t get me wrong… I do understand that there are many stories behind Skulls and Crossbones as in ancient times they symbolized PIRATES, ROBBERIES, and even DEATH. But it isn’t written that skulls are "sinful" nor that it symbolizes EVIL. We all were blessed with a SKULL and what you do with it is your BIZWAX!!!!
  
I had FUN with this outfit

Just because I wear a skull cap don't make me EVIL!!!!

I normally don't wear names on my A$$ but I must admit these are my 3rd pair of Dereon Jeans and they are so comfortable!

What I wore:

Skull Baseball Cap - Gifted
Earrings - Brooke's Closet
Dereon Outfit - Macy's
Chuck Taylor/ All Stars - Foot Locker

P.S. The movie was great... if you like comedy and enjoy laughter this is a must-see. It was hilariously funny; Then again... I'm SUPA SILLY like that!!!!
Tip of the Day: Don’t judge someone because of their outer appearance you never know what that person may be going through. Get to know a person 1st - you just may LIKE them or even grow to LOVE them!

Never judge a book by it’s cover without even opening it to READ it!

  1. Love the outfit! Although it is very simple, it has such a casual chic vibe to. And I myself have many a Ed Hardy hat, jewelry and other apparel with skulls all over the place - and I'm a God-fearing Christian to the bone! I learned a long time ago that what other people think of me is none of my business!!!

  2. So many words of truth in this post! You gotta get to know a person before judging them so true and it's something to be reminded of.
    Your outfit is casual and cool and I really like it I really like the cap too. Skulls definitly are not evil they just aren't my cup of tea but you wear it well and that I LOVE =)
    p.s. your earrings are out of this world super statement, and I love it!

  5. Great message. You are right in that you should not judge a book by its cover. Skulls are not my thing. Personally, I do associate skulls with death but that does not mean that I think people that have skull tats or wear skull things are satanic!! lol You look cute in that hat and I love your chucks! They are my daughter's favorite shoe!! btw..this is some really interesting music you have going on here. OMG that dude is going super fast and I can't understand a dog-on thing he saying!! LOL Kiah

  6. I agree! Cute outfit. I tend to associate skulls with death, but I don't agree with such a judgmental comment. You look cute in your hat and I love your earrings.

  15. I really need to invest in more caps....a thought.

  16. Hey Lynn! You look cute in your fit. I personally don't do skulls because they (the majority of the time) connote the wrong thing. That is not to say you can't do what pleases you though.

    Simply put, we all know the initial thought that comes to mind when we see a skull - that's just the truth. We also know it's one of the main staples during Halloween (a holiday I don't believe is "light and airy" in nature). I DON'T think a skull makes someone a devil-worshiper by any means...but I can think of a plethora of other things a person can wear that doesn't automatically suggest darkness.

    Again, you look super cute! I love your fashion sense and your overall style! Great post.

    Mylah

  17. This post shed some light on things we do (yes I included myself) frequently. For me it was a matter of being taught growing up in a very religious family that clowns, skulls, pants, jewelry and red lipstick was evil. Upon developing my own relationship with Christian and studying the Word I learned not everything I was taught was absolute & Biblical. Chucks are hot!
