Red, White & Blue!

Happy 4th everyone!  I haven't taken any outfit pictures since I started this Blog because I don't have anyone to take them for me, it's hard to do with the self timer and I'm waiting until I can afford to buy a remote for my camera.  So today I tried to take the pictures in the mirror of what I am wearing for the 4th of July, nails and all!  Believe it or not, this so called "outfit" were the only clothes I had in red, white & blue!  I need to go shopping! 

What did you wear on the 4th of July?

 

Revlon "Cherries in the Snow" and Avon Nailwear Pro in "Empower"

Happy 4th Everyone!

Birthday & Outfit

Yesterday was my baby Brother's Birthday so we went to my Grandmother's house to celebrate. She has the most beautiful backyard I've ever seen! So I thought, finally I have someone here to take an outfit picture, and what better place to take my first one. I didn't realize how hard it was to be in front of the camera and come up with poses that didn't look posed! I don't know how those models do it, but I take my hat off to them because it was hard & I deleted several pictures because the poses looked horrid!

Photos taken by my Mom :)

Blouse: Thrifted

Capri's: Avon

Belt: Thrifted

Shoes: Target

Ring: Avon

Bracelet: Target

Handbag: Oooops! Handbag?.....I totally forgot to put my bag in the picture, but it's from Macy's :)

This blouse is one of my favorite thrift finds. I love how the sleeves are flowing and the colors are beautiful. I don't wear flat shoes very often because I am only 5"2, so flats can make me look even shorter as you can see. I was going to wear my new white wedges, but I wore a pair of new shoes the other day and they gave me awful blisters, so I had to go with the flats. Why so much Avon listed you might ask?  I am an Avon Rep and I love Mark's clothing and Avon's jewelry. 

If anyone has helpful tips for posing in front of the camera, pleassssseeeee e-mail me!  Let me know what you think, but be nice this is my first time :-)

Outfit Pictures

I can't wait to start taking outfit pictures!  I'm so excited because I have so many new thrift store finds to show you, but I wanted to start this Blog right away.  I love to write, it's just such a great outlet.  Also, my #1 passion is Photography, so put those two together and add my love for fashion and...... voila'....Fashion Blog!

So right now I'm trying to find a remote for my Nikon, because I have to take my own pictures.  I'm also upgrading my camera to a better one.  Right now I use a Nikon D70, not my first Nikon but my first Digital camera.  I've had it now for about 7 years and before that I had a Nikon N80 (film camera), then before that I had a Nikon 5005 (film camera).  So I've upgraded through the years.

Tonite I'm checking out the reviews online for the Nikon D3100, plus researching remotes which I've never had before.  So hopefully outfit pictures will be coming soon!  Have a great night!
