I think I’ve forgotten how to blog.

Dress: Miss Selfridge

You may recognise this dress from a previous wish list post…and lucky me, my Mum treated me to it (FYI, it’s on sale for just £20 now!)

I knew instantly that I wanted to photograph it for the blog, getting back in to outfit photos on a regular basis is something that has been on my agenda for a long time, but quite honestly, I think I have forgotten how to do it!

Whereas once posing for photos came pretty naturally, now I do it so infrequently that I just do not know what to do with myself and I find myself feeling incredibly self conscious even thought it’s just Bob and I (with the occasional interruption from Pablo).

Practice makes perfect though right? I really do need to make more of an effort to keep this up. There’s so many things I want to do with the blog, but it seems like I’ve lacked the get up and go to do them. I used to take such pride in keeping this place up to date and looking good, but then I fell in to the “I’m not good enough” slump and it just never happened.

I’m slowly starting to shift that attitude though, not just in terms of blogging, but in life in general. I’ve let insecurity get in my way for as long as I can remember, but finally, at the age of 32 I realise enough is enough.

That being said, if any one has any ideas for the blog, for how to pose for photos, or for how to stop giving a shit about what other people may or may not be thinking then I would be most grateful because I don’t have a whole lot of faith in my own ideas.

  1. I feel you! I think I’ve forgotten to I hardly ever take photos of myself now as they never seem to come out the way i want also I hardly ever dress up anymore… anyway, I absolutely adore that dress it looks so beautiful on you and suits you so well xoxo

  2. Fabulous outfit photos! I love your facial expressions, and poses! Your increased level of confidence shows, and that dress is beautiful! I love the pretty floral print on the beautifully alternated black and white backgrounds in your Black Mia Mixed Print Wrap Midi Dress from Miss Selfridge! Your hair colour, mascara and lipstick all look very pretty.
    Your own ideas, outfit photos and this post are all great!!!

  3. You always look good in photos! I just stand and grin though I did try a Sophie pose today with the grabbing of my hair which I quite liked! Your dress is super pretty! I am so sad that the Miss Selfridge near me is closing down. I bought a blouse in there even though I wasn’t supposed to be new because I felt sorry for them!
