All Dressed Up with Nowhere to Go

Why am I all alone today in my party dress?

Is it because my face is unnaturally painted on?

Do you think I'm a square?


This is my second shot in my series of sleeveface selfies. I did end up starting a theme and you can play along this week until next Tuesday by tagging your shots: sleeveface1.

Happy weekend, my photo friends! Hope you get to wear your party dresses, but you got somewhere to go. Me, I'm going on a date tonight!:).
Great composition but someone has broken your neck?

Have a great weekend!

Nice dress and fun shot.
May 23rd, 2014  
@bulldog It was the closest I got to getting it right. They are hard to do when you can't see yourself and how you are lined up. Oh well:). Thanks, you, too!!

@soboy5 Thanks, Danny!!!
May 23rd, 2014  
Brilliant Amanda!! Great fun!! :)
May 23rd, 2014  
Believe me, I know...
When I did this, I took around 50 photos before getting this one nearly right: http://365project.org/bulldog/365/2012-05-04

Fantastic body but your face looks a little washed out!!! This is super creative and wonderful! Love your comments, especially 'do you think I'm a square'. big fav
May 23rd, 2014  
My colors and I love that dress!! Again, what an imagination you have.....fav! Unfortunately everything around here is so casual, I can't even imagine where I would wear something this gorgeous. On a cruise would be all. My closet is filled with dressy clothes I never wear any more :-(
May 23rd, 2014  
Another super sleeve face selfie! Love it.
May 23rd, 2014  
Very nice, Amanda! Love the dress!
May 23rd, 2014  
Good shot, but needs more cleavage.
May 23rd, 2014  
I love this and should do this one week!
May 23rd, 2014  
You're looking good!!! This is fab. Your selfies are amazing....yet to do one at all.....
May 23rd, 2014  
@cromwell Sorry, man, it's all I got. I wore this dress in a Darth Vader selfie a long time ago that you liked if I remember correctly.

@newbank Oh lady, you gotta do a selfie. This kind is easy in that you don't show your face. LOVE selfies. I challenge you to try one soon:).

@nanderson Oh you should. It is soo fun!!!
May 23rd, 2014  
I am expecting maybe soon someone might challenge me to do so on get pushed.....I'm working up to it....
May 23rd, 2014  
GREAT JOB WASNT IT FUN
May 23rd, 2014  
I like your dress
May 23rd, 2014  
You really are so creative. Very cool.
May 23rd, 2014  
love the idea! great shot!
May 23rd, 2014  
A fun and very creative shot! Love it and have fun with the date! :)
May 23rd, 2014  
super cute :)
May 23rd, 2014  
Super shot
May 23rd, 2014  
I love this idea... I am going to have to see if I can find something so I can play along with the theme now! Fav
May 23rd, 2014  
I like to think you're wearing crocs down there :)
May 23rd, 2014  
@snackmaster Nope, barefoot. I don't have crocs. They stink. I'm more of a flip flop or sneaker wearer. I had cute heels to put on with it, but said, "Nah!"
May 23rd, 2014  
Hey butter face, this is perfect. I'm sad to say I got rid of all my albums the same time I got rid of my party dresses. ;-) Happy weekend.
May 23rd, 2014  
@gazbadger Do it!!! Can't wait to see your clever take. And thanks so much for the fav!

@bill_fe Not a butter face. Funny eh? I got 4 at a garage sale last weekend. Your comment is so funny. Have a great weekend, too! Thanks for the fav, Bill!!
May 23rd, 2014  
I salute you. Crocs smell of pooooooooo
May 23rd, 2014  
Very cool, great dress. Enjoy your night out :-)
May 23rd, 2014  
Love the compositional contrast -the squares and the curve line of your pretty dress work great!To my taste, hm...I'd love to see your face better.And I know you have enough bravery and model skills to do that!
May 23rd, 2014  
I meant that you needed to SHOW more -- not that you NEEDED more. LOL!
May 23rd, 2014  
Oops. I just looked up butter face. I didn't mean to insult you.
May 23rd, 2014  
@bill_fe Such a funny thing. I so took it as a joke as I know I am not one.
May 23rd, 2014  
@cromwell Shew, ok, good.
May 23rd, 2014  
So cool and clever
May 23rd, 2014  
fun shot, great pose matching the sleeveface
May 23rd, 2014  
Sweet shot---wanna do this challenge but have only cd's...:)
May 23rd, 2014  
I just love this concept but I don't have any records!
May 23rd, 2014  
@joemuli Do it with a cd...you could have one that works. I saw one done that way once. Hope you can:). Thanks!

@janim Tough to get the head on just so when you can't see it. Someone above told me I looked to have a broken neck. Oh well. Thanks! Fun to do.
May 23rd, 2014  
@kwind Try to find a cd cover that could work.:)
May 23rd, 2014  
Super fun shot!! Congrats on the TT Amanda!!
May 23rd, 2014  
You look great and nice dress - good choice for a sleeveface selfie! Did you bring the sleeve along on the date ;-)
May 23rd, 2014  
@mikegifford Maybe I shall...since I'm such a butter face;-). Thanks so much, Mike!!!
May 23rd, 2014  
@carolmw Aw, thanks so much, Carol. That was a pleasant surprise! It's weird to make TT and not PP.
May 23rd, 2014  
This has a very Mondrian effect with the colors and lines. I like the choice of album and your execution of the shot!
May 23rd, 2014  
A super idea and capture. Fav
May 23rd, 2014  
This is such a great series, perfect outfit for the cover.
May 23rd, 2014  
I'm sure that's the body I was supposed to have - you're gorgeous you lucky thing.
May 23rd, 2014  
Clever
May 23rd, 2014  
Just too funny for words, love you as a painted lady.
May 24th, 2014

A very artistic idea, fabulously done. Fav
May 24th, 2014  
Fabulous one! Hope the date went well. ;-)
May 24th, 2014  
Oh I have laughed reading all these comments - a great and creative shot - have an amazing date. Fav
May 24th, 2014  
what a fun shot
May 24th, 2014  
This is outstandingly amazing. You are a genius with a camera. Fav and fav again.

ps: what's a sleeveface? LOL
May 24th, 2014  
@losthorizon Holding an album cover over your face or wherever it matches up with. I'm hosting a theme this week...sleeveface selfies. Have any old records? I bought a stack at a garage sale for a few bucks last weekend. I did John Denver a few days ago and have one or two more to go. Check out the sleeveface1 tag and see the other entries. It's fun to do. Wish I had lined this one up better. Someone said it looked like I had a broken neck. Hard to get right when you can't see yourself to check. Thanks for your kindness and fav and for channeling your inner Amanda. Appreciate you, my friend!
May 24th, 2014  
@amandal Awesome. Have a whole box of them....I'll have to work something out. Love the theme. Different.
May 24th, 2014  
Makes a very interesting comp! Have a nice date, Amanda!
May 24th, 2014  
@tremerryn Oh I did...thank you so much! Glad to have fun, funny comments for a laugh:).

@seanoneill yeah, thank you. Really appreciate that, Sean!

@gerry Thanks so much, Gerry.

@jewelofapplegarth Love an excuse to dress up. Thanks so much, lady!
May 24th, 2014  
@michaelelliott really appreciate that!! Thanks, Michael.
May 24th, 2014  
What a beautiful silhouette !
Very well done Amanda, put the music on, take a glass of wine and have fun ! ;)
May 24th, 2014  
Another great capture, Amanda. I went looking through my old LPs, but I don't have your creativity. FAV.
May 24th, 2014  
Such fun! Fav.
May 25th, 2014  
Who needs a face when you have a body like that. Cool dress too. nice take.
May 25th, 2014  
Ha ha another creative and fun image Amanda.
May 25th, 2014

Mac
Who's a Yummy Mummy!!!
May 28th, 2014  
Viewing backwards -- now I see where this theme started -- very clever idea and I like the color blocking/geometry of this one.
May 28th, 2014  
@taffy My original was a John Denver one from a few days before. I wanted to go out as a pretty lady, though. Thanks, lady!!
May 28th, 2014  
@riverlandphotos Moan...shriek...me;-). Thanks!
May 28th, 2014  
You are just so creative, love it. Hope you had a fab date night :)
May 29th, 2014  
I'm sorry, you were holding an album in front of your face?
June 1st, 2014  
@skipt07 Yep, I was trying out a fun type of selfie...with album covers. I did a John Denver one, too. And have another one or two to do.

@pixiemac I did...it was perfect. Thank you!!!
June 2nd, 2014
