What I'm Thinking in My Head When I Take These Photos

"I look pregnant. If I post this on the blog they're going to ask if I'm pregnant."
(Note: I swear I'm not pregnant. Just fat.)



"I'm sure this picture will turn out great - not blurry at all - and wonderfully show off how well my green shoes match the green in my necklace. Yep, not blurry AT ALL."



"I'll point at my mom, sitting behind me, so the blog world can see her visiting me! Because, you know, I'm not standing in front of her completely blocking her from view or anything."



"My mom is one of the most wicked good looking chicks I know, especially for her age. I'm not too shabby myself."



"Crap, my hair looks so much better when it's curled a little bit like this. Now I'm going to have to either curl my hair on a regular basis or accept that I *know* I could look better but have decided that I'm too lazy to make the effort. Crap crap crap."



"People are going to think I'm in mourning. Eh, whatever, maybe I am."



"If I can just keep sucking in my tummy like this all day, I'll look great..."



"Oh, hey, I look pregnant again..."
(Note: Still not pregnant. Still just fat.)



This is a very weird outfit. I wonder if it will still look weird when I put it on the blog.
(Note: Yes.)


So that's what I'm thinking in my head when I take these photos. What are you thinking in your head when you look at them?

Yeah, I'm my own worst critic when it comes to pictures, too...

When I look at the photos I wish I had a wardrobe half as decent, you look great!

Truthfully I think that I'm glad I don't have to wear anything dressy to work unless I want to. But since my boss is an old letch (and I mean that in the very nicest way, he's not creepy, just appreciative) it's rare that I feel like it's worth it.

That purple top near the end and the last one, that you thought looked weird totally take ten ponds off of you. And you and your mom look so hot! Love that dress you have on!

I am thinking I need a full length mirror and a couple new outfits. Thanks for the inspiration! ;-)

When I'm looking I'm thinking - oh that one is cute, Lara knows what shapes and colors work for her. Oh I wish I was a size where I felt comfortable enough to take pictures of myself like that - oh those shoes are great . . .
