I suppose this is really “Day 8″ since the challenge finished yesterday, but I didn’t post any pictures of what I wore yesterday, so today will be my “day 7″.

Today I wore my long jean skirt and light blue long-sleeved shirt. I also wore an apron all day because I was baking and cleaning. The apron is my mom’s and it has really pretty embroidery on it.

I made some challah today, and although I messed up the recipe a bit (and I think I’d use less yeast if I did it again), it turned out pretty well.

I did my hair in “French Twists” (like French braids, not a French twist). I think it turned out fairly well considering I did it on myself and have never been able to do French braids or anything similar before, but of course my hair decided today would be a good day to be frizzy…

Updated// I put on a vest after I took off my apron,so I decided to take a few more pictures.

I also took my hair out of the brain and put on the other tichel I got from Cover Your Hair.

I hope you’ve all enjoyed the Challenge. I’m sort of sad it’s over, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to stop wearing skirts.

I didn’t have a chance to take pictures today, and what I wore wasn’t very exciting since I went into the city today and didn’t know what it was going to be like and “played it safe”. I wore the same skirt I wore yesterday (since it was clean), the brown top I wore on day 2 (I think), and my hair in a bun (like yesterday, just higher on my head). I’ll post what I wear tomorrow as day 7.

Since I didn’t get pictures today, and I don’t have the posts I did when I took the challenge in May, I thought I’d post one from each day again today.

Day 1 I wore a black “2 in 1″ skirt/dress and a green long sleeved. My hair was down and I wore a soft headband.

Day 2 I wore a blue and white skirt with a blue shirt. I pulled my hair half back.

Day 3 I wore a red shirt with a black skirt. I wore my hair in a braid.

Day 4 I wore my “tiered” brown skirt and a white top. I just wore my hair down.

Day 5 I wore a brown skirt (the same as the black one above, just a different colour) and a purple shirt. I wore my hair in two braids.

Day 6 I wore my black skirt/dress and a brown top. I wore my hair in a bun.

Day 7 I wore my brown skirt, a blue top and a blue sweater. I wore my hair in a ponytail.

Ever wondered what a hamster looks like when it yawns? Probably not, but if you’ve ever seen one yawn, you know what it’s like. All that to say, in addition to pictures of what I wore today, I have a few bonus pictures at the end of this post (one of which is my brother’s hamster yawning).

Today, I wore the jean skirt I wore a few days ago and a purple short-sleeved shirt. I also wore a light blue sweater when I went out, but I don’t have a picture of that.

I liked the picture below, so I thought I’d include it too (well, I don’t like that my head’s cut off, but other than that…)

When I went out, I wore my hair in a bun over top of my other hairstyle.

I put it back up to take a picture. The actual bun I wore looked better.

At home, I wore my hair in a ponytail that I flipped over itself.

I put my hair in a ponytail, loosened it a bit and parted the hair just above the elastic, then flipped the ponytail up and through the hole. I pulled all the hair through, then tightened it.

I got a couple of tichels from Cover Your Hair in the mail today, and I had to try one on and I took a few pictures.

I was really surprised at how thin they were (which is good, them being thin), and the tichel was really easy to put on.

If you’re interested in tichels or other products from CoverYourHair.com, Feelin’ Feminine is giving a way a $25 gift box from them right now. (Giveaway ends January 13.)

And yes, what you’ve all been waiting for (okay, probably not…), but this is my brother’s hamster yawning.

Not the best picture, but you can see what they look like when they yawn.
