Summer fashion

[vanillafluffy]

GK got back to me with the pix she took when she was here last month. God knows I love her dearly, but I sure hope she never has to earn a living at fashion photography or portraiture, cos it is NOT her forte. Out of a half-dozen pix of me, this is the only one that's decent. It was taken on the walkway outside her motel room overlooking the pool.




The top is poly---a bit warm, but cute. The black skirt is my favorite---there's a little ruffle at the hem. The icon is a close-up of the tatt, if you're interested. My shoes are off because we spent the morning haunting Goodwill and my feet were killing me.

sbjb, this one's for you---



I TOLD you it was yellow.
(And that was indoors. In crappy light.)

Thanks! I'm just sorry that none of the shots of the fabulous polka-dot dress came out. That's the one I got early this summer and it's really been my go-to piece since then.

Dr B is self-christened. Over the years, his hair HAS been every color of the rainbow, and sometimes multi-colorred, as when he showed up for his mom's 60th birthday party with it red, orange and yellow. It looked like his head was on fire.

You'd think he bites the heads off small mammals in his spare time, but he's really very funny, well-spoken and sweet.

What was his mom's reaction -- or is she used to that by now? Maybe someone will get a shot of the fabulous polka-dot dress for you to post.

I can take great photos of other people, but am not a good portrait subject myself due to thinking about the light. I always look quite stern! And as you can see from the icon, I take lousy self-portraits. :D

Kat's quite used to it---this is rather toned down from the days when he wore fishnets under shorts. There's a general concensus that at 47, he's a wee bit old for such flamboyance.

For a while, I had a one-use camera and tried to do "Outfit of the Day" pix. Unfortunately, the flash in the mirror rendered them mostly useless, but I also wore a focused scowl during the procedure. *sigh* What I love about the fab dotted dress is, it makes me look like the pin-up queen I aspire to be. Some day, I'd like to have one really good photo that looks like the me I think of myself as....
