What's Going Down

Monday, May 11, 2009

I'm so vain. And you can be too.

I probably think this blog is about me.

Cuz, sometimes, your hair and makeup and the stars align to make you just feel pretty, dangit.

And cuz your husband can't keep his eyes off you, so you must be looking good.

And cuz you just don't have very many pictures of yourself.

Finally, cuz you deserve it.

That's right, I'm encouraging you to get dolled up, take pictures of yourself, and post them on YOUR blog.

Do it for your kids, who may only remember mom in her lounge pants, with no makeup and sweaty ponytail hair.

But mostly, do it for you.

And if you can't seem to bribe your 4-8 year old into taking your picture, and your husband is never around... and you don't like your camera (or whatever).

Call me. I'll do it!

Yep, I think this blog is about me. I can't wait to see the posts about YOU!

I kinda (OK, really) want to see more of the dress.

Amy G. said...

ummm I THINK she said this blog post was about HER... not the dress. Though, I have to say, I did see the dress and it is totally fabulous.

Great poses, photography, etc, etc, by the way.

I love the one with you laughing, looking down and to the side. And I really do need you to take pictures of me for me to look that good. You look fab! (also would like to see more of the dress)

Christie said...

Dang! You do look good, girl! I love this idea for a few reasons:

A) I'm totally narcissistic
B) There are like four pictures of me taken all last year, and all for some dumb blog post
C) I love to have an excuse to get all dolled up.

Rachel said...

Holy cow! I love the hair! You look amazing! I also want to see more of the dress! You are beautiful!

Erica said...

You look glamorous! Your pictures are awesome. I've always thought about doing one of those scrapbooks that are all about "me" but haven't done it yet. The other day I was looking for a picture of myself w/ the kids and I had only 2 from all of last year and this year. Really sad.

Melinda said...

You are looking FABulous! I did get to see the dress and now I'm going out to buy one just like it!! hehehee!

Rachel said...

I'm never on the other end of the camera...not sure it likes me much. Maybe we'll have to see :) If it turns out badly no one will ever know since they'll be deleted before anyone can steal a glance.

lacyboo said...

you look a lot like my mom in a lot of these pictures...which really just means you look like your mom who happens to be my moms sister lol. you look gorgeous:)

Rachel said...

did it. posted it. might pull it down. i'm feeling like no one is commenting because of the scariness of the subject :)

Misty said...

looooooooove the b/w one. Stunning. I'm totally doing this.

Nicole said...

You're one hot mama! As for pictures of myself...I have to think about it. I did, however, just get my hair cut yesterday and am feeling a little cuter...

Neabear said...

Thanks for your visit to my blog today. I hope to have the chair finished before too long. I love the fabric too. :-)

Audrey said...

great pics but you must post one with more of the dress!

Jane said...

You look beautiful!
If you were close, I would take you up on taking some pictures, I have so few of me that I like.

Mindy Hales said...

You don't know me, but thank you for posting this. It has been an inspiration to me and I have just completed my own personal photo shoot and I feel beautiful. http://mindynhales.blogspot.com/2009/06/im-so-vaini-probably-think-this-blog-is.html
