I like to post an outfit for Spunky Chateau's Thursdays are for Thrifting. It's not hard to find a thrifted piece in my wardrobe! So I chose a favorite skirt by Viola, and paired it with a navy long sleeve tee.
My slightly creative touch was a print cotton scarf (GAP) as a belt/sash, and I love the way the colors mixed with the skirt. All is well, we do middle-age Vogue-like poses, husband takes a bunch of shots, and I'm off to work.
When I get home I see that all the pics are really blurry, as in almost indistinguishable. I had already semi-disrobed following a delicious spaghetti dinner at Pappagallo's Italian restaurant. I was able to salvage half this picture, and "sharpen" it with Paint.Net (free program).
Ah well, I love my photographer, he is handsome and brave. Perhaps too much strong tea for breakfast, for both of us?
Ever have a photo-disaster day?
The skirt and sash look made for each other!
ReplyDeleteMy blurry pics are usually caused by the four-legged child getting curious.....
The skirt and scarf/belt looks great. I've been doing it for a while and haven't got tired of it yet.
ReplyDeleteMy pictures are always a little blurry. I use a tri pod so I have no one to blame!
You saved one photo to show us your outfit so mission accomplished. I've also had days like yours that camera doesn't work well with me resulting in blurry images .What I do is post the smallest size possible. The scarf is a genious touch as it mixes well with both the color of the shirt and the green of the skirt. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteI love this color combo. It looks great together! Every photo session is a disaster for me. The only way I can get a decent picture is to use my little flip-video camera then scroll through the stills till I find one that I'm not scowling or rolling my eyes in.
ReplyDeletethis skirt is so amazing- love it.
ReplyDeletemy pictures are a little blurry most of the time, because of using a tripod to shoot my outfits. in summertime it's okay but in wintertime my shots get very blurry. i feel a little afraid of the darkish days in upcoming winter... :(
