I also run myself down almost all of the time. It's like when I look in the mirror I see only flaws. But I am going to consciously work on that attitude now.

And we need to change that. But I dont agree that we are more forgiving when it comes to others. Dont we look at someone and think "why doesn't she dress age appropriately" or "her hair looks messy today" or whatever. We do pass judgements about others. Just that we keep it to ourselves. <em>Me: Hmm strangers maybe but when its friends..we always tend to look with a forgiving eye. KWIM ?</em> Coming to today's outfit, I loooooooove the vest. So biker jacket like! <em>Me: I like it a lot. Its kind of snug now when zipped up but I am hoping in the next 6 months, it will fit better</em> Yes, we are sometimes too harsh on ourselves.

We are, our own worst critics, aren't we? <em>Me: We are. And you know its difficult to look in the mirror and find one nice thing to say about yourself.

Then I looked at my nose, and said what are those 3 bumps on there for. Then looked at my double chin. By then I gave up and quietly continued brushing my teeth</em> I love your attire! You look fabulous! By the way, I have been shopping for accessories - totally inspired by you :) <em>Me: YAY. Post pictures!</em> Being nice to ourselves makes so much sense, actually..

I got the idea for daily outfits when I was doing a random google search. I write aboout MY LIFE. And thats what this blog is about. MY LIFE!!

Get your own blog and follow that guideline. I post things as and when I like. Having a schedule might make blogging seem like a chore. What if on Thurs I wear a cute outfit?

It shud be the three older kids rite.. coz u werent pregnant when samar was here ??? <em>Me: It was a confusing statement to write and explain.

The younger 3 are all 2 years apart..when Samar was born, I had a 4 yr old, 2 yr old and a infant. Dark, dark days.. I dont think I slept much those days. :) I once calculated how months I was pregnant, how many months I b/f and did a percentage of my life thing.</em> I have a doubt
