This is Day 2 in the Inspired By Nature challenge, organised by BellaRemixes and taking place at YouLookFab. The inspiration today is Water lilies (Nymphaea nouchali), Okavango Delta, Botswana by Frans Lanting

Normally I’d have thrown on jeans and one of my tees when going to the post office, but my two day old braids keep it casual. lol.

The bracelet ring thing is just a long strand of thick copper wire. I had made a sketch of what I wanted, and managed to follow it reasonably closely, though the bendability of the wire did force some limitations. Also, since it’s just wire and not jewellery grade anything, it does leave a bit of a metallic smell on my hands. Totally worth it though, this thing is awesome.

Rule one of being comfortable in your heels – get your toes in properly. I had taken my shoes off and then put them back on to do the photos, and didn’t bother to place my toes correctly as you can see through the peep toe. Sounds crazy, right? But seriously – especially if you are long of toe -  take a minute to get them in right, stick your finger in and put your toes where you want them if you have to – you’ll be glad you did.
