So day 7, I think I missed a day actually. Or 2 days, I don't know, time differences make me confused. It's 7 photos anyway.
I don't have much to say about this one. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, even though my face is doing something weird. Not that weird is bad.
I think I'm starting to feel better about these photos. However I must confess I found an older picture on the camera taken when I didn't know about it. I deleted it as soon as I saw it. It was extremely unflattering and makes me wonder if that's how I actually look when sitting at the computer. So while I feel good about these photos (right now anyway) other photos may not be so lucky to survive.
Here is what I usually wear on the weekends - all weekend. But I felt like being extra comfy after work today. I was trying out different smiles in the hopes of finding a 'go to' photo smile. This one seems like a winner. What do you think?
Also yes I'm leaning against the wall, standing up and stuff is hard sometimes.
This one I'm not sure I'm happy with. When I looked in the mirror before and after taking my photos what I saw looked way better than what I saw in the photos. I feel cheated. I like my outfit but in the photo I look frumpy and wider than in the mirror.
I'm gonna blame the camera, or the mirror, or the weird thing that must happen between the mirror and camera as I push the button.
It's the weekend and I'm about to go to the supermarket, so my hoody makes me feel warm and comfy and better about actually going. I hate the supermarket.
Also I got a new haircut today, not sure I like it. She cut my fringe weird and it's not what I wanted at all. But oh well, it's just hair right? It'll grow back.
So I kind of like this one. I'm wearing a shirt that always makes me feel like I look good. I like everything about that shirt.
My skirt I quite like too but about halfway through the day it started to fall down a bit. So every 5-10 steps I had to hitch it up.
Did I spontaneously lose weight during the day?! And enough weight that my ELASTIC WAIST skirt started falling off?!
Anyway 2 things I've learnt after 3 days is:
1 - real smile = better than fake photo smile. Don't ask what the difference is I can't see, I only know I like the real one better.
That's thanks to my dogs goofy expression. Even though he blocks out my cool boots this photo was still my favourite.
2 - Ponytails do not make me look attractive, I must make more effort with my hair.
So it's my second day and I'm wearing my favourite cardigan. But I'm wondering about my stance, kind looks like I'm leaning back pushing my belly out. Also I really hate my smile so I hope doing this will make me start to like it.
I decided to join in with TJ's project because I know the image I have in my head is different to what everyone sees. So I'm hoping to get a more accurate self-image, a better one if possible.
However after taking this photo I might re-think this shirt. It's not as womanly-flattering as I thought.
