Playing Dress Up – Awkwardly

March 22nd, 2011 by crystal



What’s that you’re telling me? To relax?


Seriously…
Do you know how hard it is to pose by yourself? This is why I’ve never modeled (that and the 30 pounds I’d have to lose). I need a prop or something…


Again, I need to –
have husband take more than one picture.
check pictures husband takes.
relax.


And, no face again…there was a huge smudge on my camera lens (most likely from a cooking photo session) that completely blurred my face.


I’ll get better. I promise.

Playing Dress Up – First Attempts

March 14th, 2011 by crystal

There are about a million daily ‘here’s what I wore today’ blogs. I don’t intend to become one of those, but it occurred to me that it might be nice to share a little more about myself and my personal style. You know…to kind of make this blog something you can connect with.


I won’t post these every day because honestly, it’s not everyday that I make it out of gym clothes or pajamas (I work from home…what do you expect?). But, I’ll try to keep up with it so you can see my latest fashion obsessions and experiments.
Here’s my first attempt…

Nautical Trend
Jeans – Banana Republic
Shirt – Target
Shoes – Toms
Jacket – (I have no idea)



What, no face? It was awful, y’all. Imagine the look you might make if you looked directly into the sun while simultaneously eating the most sour lemon on the planet. That’s the face I spared you from seeing. You’re welcome.


From this first effort, I learned –
have husband take more than one picture.
check pictures husband takes.
it’s okay to look at the camera.
relax.


What do you think? Is this something you’d like to see more of?
