Cliche

Thursday, August 04, 2011

What would you say is overdone among style blogs? I'd pick posing in front of the requisite brick wall. And yet here I am today, doing just that, lol. An abandoned warehouse building was too secluded to pass up a photo opportunity. I can now call myself a style blogger?

  1. haha you're too funny. I'm not sure if I've even done the brick wall pics myself, but I think I vaguely remember doing so. I like the chambray over the stripes. Great look!

  6. LOL - I guess a blank wall makes a better canvas off which to show your outfit!

  7. All you need now is to look down with a faint smile, one hand on your hip and your legs crossed, then you will have mastered standard fashion blogger pose #14! ;o)

    But hey, when it works, it works!

  9. @The Little Dust Princess, @eek, @LePetiteLemon - Haha, glad you guys get my sarcastic sense of humor ;)

    @Olyvia - Just when I had thought I've had my fill of brick walls, I went and found a colored one today, lol. A green one in a secluded tennis court. Of course I went and took pics :)

    @kileen - I want to say b/c brick walls are easy to find? But most of the ones I've seen are in visible sight and hard to take private pics... until I found this one.

    @Michelle - I was turning in circles and I got lucky that my hair just so happened to not be blurred :)

    @TaraMixandMatch - The skirt is $6 at F21 and no tax this weekend online! Not that it would've been much, but it's always nice to save :)

    @Lisa - respect the shoes - Or another of my favorite, hand in hair pose ;)

  11. I just posed against a brick wall the other day for the first time ever! ... My apartment in the background doesn't count. :) But it's got to be the easiest backdrop to just focus on the clothing that the blogger is wearing! That's my thought, anyways.

    Your outfit is great!
