This is Me and What I Wear

The self portrait challenge continues.  The optional theme for October...clothes.


I think just as much as your house represents who you are, your clothes do the same.  Clothes allow you to express yourself and have a story.

Maybe you have a pair of pants splattered in different colored paint that represent the creative projects you've completed over the years (Tuula).  Maybe you like to wear a worn flannel shirt that used to be your dad's.  Maybe your clothes are covered in spit up...because you are the loving mom of a sweet little bundle of joy.

Whatever your story, share it in a self portrait.

  1. I have never even seen you in person and yet I love your sense of style (I'm thinking about the polkadot Goodwill dress and a certain pair of jeans with big, rolled up cuffs.) That blue dress with the boots is pretty cute too :)

  2. I agree the way you dress does represent who you are. Just like your home, you have awesome fashion style too! You have to have the fashion eye and a good one too to be able to shop at Goodwill and find awesome stuff! Also, I love the way you dress Grace... I think the way you dress your child represents who as well. :)

  5. What a great theme Amy! I'll have to show something other than my painted pants, lol, although I do wear them around the house a lot of the time. I love that you find such stylish clothes at Goodwill. You are proof that we can dress well and not spend a fortune.

  8. I am fat and unattractive. The clothes I wear are 14W or XL. Never want to be in a photograph again, as long as I live. (Snap away after my death.)

  12. I had to laugh when I read "the optional them for October...clothes!"....maybe I'll opt not to wear them!

  13. I hope Danni goes with her idea....clothes optional. I try to not wear my crocs, because well, Ryan hates them for one, but also I know they don't give the best impression...besides they're comfy.
