Forest For The Trees

Aww, man. You guys! I totally had to rough it, this weekend. =[~ My Player Two went on some stupid business trip or whatever and left me home alone with Bonaparte, also known as The Ungrateful One. Gaaaaah. >_< As a result, I had to take these photos myself. Yes, I know! The horror! The horror!

Hahaha. Yeahhhhh. I quickly remembered just how much of an amateur photographer I really am. At any rate, it was an absolutely gorgeous day. I couldn't believe it was over 50 degrees. I didn't even really need my epic bag lady coat, but I knew that I'd need it later in the day, so I brought it along.

Yes, I decided to get out of my jim jams in order to get over my jim-jams. Hey! See what I did there? ;D
I bundled up the old tripod, my camera and a good book, tossed all of that shiz into my bike basket and set off for an evening of lazy sippin' and perusin' at a coffee shop. I admit, it was a very nice and relaxing bike ride. Along the way, I found a private spot to photograph what I wore for the day. :P

It goes without saying that this outfit is nothing fancy. Hehe. It's super simple. I wore my favorite vintage floral sweater underneath a pair of vintage dark denim overalls and that's about it, really. :3 I wanted to see if I could get away with wearing shortalls/overalls in the winter, again. Methinks I succeeded. :D

I'm not really sure what I was going for style wise. By that, I mean I'm not sure how I would categorize this look. I guess maybe I would call it rustic hipster granny chic? I dunno. I just know that I like it. :P

Yep. Yeah. At least I managed to do something productive instead of being a big ol' loaf at home. I got to brush up on my clicker hiding skills and I didn't get hassled by a single creeper! 'Twas a good day!

Ha ha! Rustic hipster granny chic will soon be everywhere after people see this.

Good on ya for getting out and taking your own photos. Once all the mud dries up here I'm going to try to make an effort to leave my backyard once in a while this year. I do have an overwhelming fear of creepers though.

Hehe. Of all the trends that I could set, I'm OK with that one. :DDD Yeah, well. I still haven't been able to get the courage to set up my gear on a sidewalk or a more populated area. I've had the worst luck with creepers and I'm also nervous about people knocking over or stealing my equipment. So, I find secluded places (though there's no inherent safety in that strategy, either). Heh.

If I had a nice backyard or back area like you, I'd just take a majority photos there, too. There's nothing wrong with that! The thing I care about most is natural lighting and that's hard to get indoors. :P

Being your own photographer is hard (though I think you did well)!

I've been searching for a pair of denim overall shorts for ages! I can never find a pair in my size. You look super cute and your photos turned out nice without player 2! :P

This sweater is magical! It's everything I love about vintage floral wallpaper and old chintz couches, and I mean that in the best way! This outfit is so quirky and playful, elements that I'm realizing define your style.

I think if my player two was gone for the weekend, no outfit photos would happen. Whenever I've tried to take the tripod out by myself, even the most "private" areas seem suddenly overpopulated. Then I'd get all nervous and embarrassed and awkward, and I'd probably just run back home. Which is even more embarrassing. Kudos to you for packing up your tripod and taking care of business yourself!
