Getting Around to the Friday Self-Portrait
I'm a little slow on the uptake posting this photo
because I had something else in mind to post on Friday
before I remembered Nina's self-portrait day.
And then there's Sepia Saturday,
always a fun thing to participate in,
so this is the first opportunity
to focus
on me.
I like this photo because:
I was feeling sassy that day
the sky was blue
and the sun was out
and I was having fun window shopping
I looked fashionable in my blue jeans,
tailored white shirt,
and brown leather jacket
(or at least that's my story
and I'm stickin' with it)
it looks like the scarf in the window
is hanging over my shoulder
and I'm no dummy
You can see how long my hair is
I could be any woman because
my face doesn't show
so it's me but not necessarily me
and that fits with my belief
that all women are sisters
under the skin
I think I look taller and skinnier
than I really am and that's an illusion
I'm willing to live with
CELEBRATE YOURSELF!

"Sassy" is a great state of mind.
Fun post Meri.
Bee, Steven and Bonnie - Sassy is a great state of mind. Could the male equivalent be frisky? We all need to be sassy celebrants more often.
Golden West - the grid does center and anchor things, though it was not intentional.
Beth - I think sassy girls JUMP so that you can take portraits of them.
love you.
love the we are all sisters under the skin.
love that you are loving yourself.
(that's the perfect kind of sassy!)

I loved the portrait and you do look as if you have been stretched...
sassy gals and gung ho boys
Happy days
