Snowstorms and Lack of Prep!

I've been so good recently with keeping up with posts (2 months into the new year with countless snow storms!). Unfortunately, I've run out of prepared posts that are weather relevant to these non stop snow storms on the weekends. (can't they come during the week and give me a snow day??)

So I've changed things up a bit, and decided to use the backdrop manfriend got me for Christmas. I'm still adjusting on how to take photos with the backdrop so bear with me as I go through my learning curve.

I actually really like how this shirt worked as a stand alone top. It's actually a wispy cardigan like garment with no buttons to bring it together. It was a bit big so I decided to swaddle myself in it and turn it into a wrap top. The pattern, neutral coloring, and low cut V neck reminds me of the Altuzarra for Target collection. I loved that collection, but need to find more occasions to wear plunging necklines, because work is just not the place.

Top | Thrifted

Belt | Altuzarra for Target

Pants | Ann Taylor

Shoes | BCBG

I'm not going to lie, this photo shoot is probably one of the more frightening ones I've had to take for this blog. Yes, taking photos outside while people stare is uncomfortable, but there's always something to distract you, and because of all the noise in the background, you're never the only focus.

When you're standing in front of a white tarp, you're the sole focus of the photo. No pretty floral background to detract from the broccoli stuck in your teeth or that glaringly obvious panty line. It's terrifying. I don't know how the starlets do it. So please excuse my awkwardness in the photos as I was paralyzed with fear and painfully aware of where my hands were every instant I was in front of the camera.

I can tell you right now. I can't WAIT until it's spring and I can go outside to take photos again!!
