Outfit, 02/01/08, and why I am cutting my head off in the pictures

outfit 020108First, today's togs:

Dark wash boot-cut jeans from New York & Company, bought at the retail store. Cream colored cowl-neck cotton sweater from Old Navy, bought at the retail store. Earth shoes from online, blue flowered socks by Chinese Laundry, purchased at Ross. Amber necklace made by taking apart a thrift store necklace and putting the amber on a chain from some other old necklace.

Now, the reason these photos are headless:

I am not an unattractive person. However, I am a massively non-photogenic person. In order to get a picture of me wherein my face doesn't look very very bad, and very different from the way it normally looks, you have to both be a decent photographer and have a world of patience. The pictures I am putting up here of my clothes are quick snaps taken every morning a moment before leaving the house by Mark, who is a terrible photographer. Therefore, my choices are either to share a picture of myself in which my face looks horrific every day, or not distract myself or anyone else with my face and just cut my head off and concentrate on the clothes. I choose the latter. Sorry if people are finding it creepy.

I just think it makes you look mysterious, like you have a secret identity you're trying not to expose.

Secret Agent Grace.

You looked lovely in your photo with the Stapler.
