Self Portrait Challenge: What I Wear

I wear dresses! I am dress obsessed. Today I am wearing a Lux dress from Urban Outfitters in a pretty shade of royal blue, silver ballet flats, tights because it is so damn cold,  & pretty makeup applied using Sephora's smokey eye brush set.  Besides the color, I really love the floral details on the dress.

If there is one thing I love more than art & photography it is fashion and dressing up! Thanks to SPC for such a fabulous prompt!

Self Portrait Challenge: What I Wear

New York City has been graced with cold cold November Rain this week, so I have been wearing cozy knits paired with girly dresses. Even my headband is knitted!

Self Portrait Challenge: What I Wear

This week (yesterday in fact), I wore blue tights:

I've been playing around with colored tights. Purple tights are my favorite (that was last week), so I thought I would try something new. I was really daring because I wore this to work at my white shoe firm here in Manhattan. I figured, you can wear a bright colored sweater why not tights? I pulled it off! It was fun, what color should I try next?!

Self Portrait Challenge: Food Part 2

I love the idea of the fortune cookie, but I never seem to come across any promising fortunes. This particular fortune read: "You work hard" (in bed). That isn't a fortune at all. Merely a fact. The fortune cookie gods are clearly trying to let me down easy (or they are just getting lazy.) one on or the other. Anyway, this was me pre-unfortunate fortune:

wish me luck, i'll need it.

Self Portrait Challenge: Bathroom 4

two other shots i took for the challenge, but sadly the month is over.




this challenge ended up being a lot of fun, i was nervous about it at first, and well i got a lot out of my tiny bathroom. i didn't want the challenge to end. unfortunately, it seems i have several reasons to dread october. i won't bore you with them. instead, i would like to thank you all for sharing your art & photography with me. it is one thing that will help keep me sane. i should also add, some things just turn out better than you expected they would. i hope that trend continues.

Self Portrait Challenge: Pattern Week 3

I've been really obsessed with sunflowers lately...I love the pattern of the inner circle a sunflower has...macro shots of sunflowers fascinate me...they are definitely more interesting than a photo of me, so I decided to hide behind it.;)
