Last week I decided that every Friday I would take a photo of myself.
Not as easy as I thought. Though after six years of blogging it seems natural (-ly slow coming) that I would show you who I am….
Five foot four (or almost) because who says five foot three and three/fourths of an inch? Someone who wants to be tall that is who.
I have hazel eyes.
I wear glasses.
My hair is dyed.
Grey thin wool sweater with a hint of dark purple.
With a long cotton/wool tee shirt underneath.
Wrapped haphazardly around my neck a checked scarf.
Hair not brushed.
While in a dressing room in Marseille.
Thought I would take a photo of my reflection, different angle of the subject.
The old tin letters on the side, are monogram pin tags used in hats during the 1900s.
I do not have a hat.
I never look at fashion magazines… but while staying at my friend Nathalie's house she had a bunch of them… I started taking close ups of photos I liked. Then matching them with other pieces I liked. Made me feel like a fashion photographer without the pay or glam.
Oxfords with lace. A new trend?
I bought some shoes similar to these.
Oxfords are in…
so is beautiful skin.
The lace thing…
Lace cuff.
I think this lace top is my new best friend, I wear it constantly, unless it is in the wash.
Feather bow tie with checks, stripes and a mini sweater.
Great look.
But I tend to go for black, grey, white…
I discovered Pinterest… oh my! That is addicting. Do you know about Pinterest?
It is an online site where you can "pin" photos you like with their link instantly to pin boards you create.
While pinning ( on Pinterest ) a whole new world of creative thought bursts in my mind. Possibilities! Made my finger itch to be creative.
Or at least … I might forego wearing only black. But as my mother would say, "Don't hold your breath."
Friday Fille….
