You Are The Wind Beneath My Skirt

The days of taking my photos outside are quickly dwindling to an end with the return of colder unpredictable weather.

I tried my best and it started out okay…

But then it quickly turned into this…

I will spare you the Marilyn moment while I was walking back from the camera and my whole derriere was exposed. You couldn’t even tell I was in the skirt. I looked like a headless cocoon with legs.

Here are some of the tips I can provide you with on how NOT to take photos for your style blog…

Shoot into direct sunlight.

People drive themselves crazy looking for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Shoot in super strong winds.

It’ll make your skirt or hair look like it is trying to kill you.

So I broke down and went inside.

I know I’m still wearing my sunglasses. I really dislike indoor shots of myself without eye makeup on and honestly, I just couldn’t be bothered. #lazystyleblogger

Sweater – TJ Maxx similar, Shoes – Rockport these Fyres are GREAT, Skirt – thrifted but this one is so pretty!, Bag – vintage this one is stunning!, Faux leather jacket – H&M but this one is leather AND on sale.

I picked up this vintage skirt at a thrift store when we were visiting Ottawa for $2. It looks like it came straight from Anthropologie. Well…minus the $200 price tag of course.

Are there any tips you can pass along on how NOT to take photos for a style blog?

I just know there are some good ones out there : )

Linking up with the lovely Patti for Visible Monday

Day 1 Outfit Visiting family – Promenade des Anglais

I wanted to look a bit dressy for visiting family that I haven't seen in a while but still be comfortable for a casual walk along the Promenade des Anglais where Robert and I often walked when we had a place there.
