This is my absolute favorite time of year. Plus the autumn color pallete are the colors that look best on me.
I featured this new 4 seasons tree the other day...the one I named Erik. And had two separate friends tell me I needed a selfie under it.
I seem to have stepped away from selfies. Selfies and I have been on a break. I think after doing 300+ of them, I became rather burnt out and a bit over myself truth be told. Also, I seriously lack time and when I have time, the energy. And if I am being really honest here, I struggle with the fact that finally, I am aging and seeing the effects of it. I was a 20-30 something that looked like a teen for so long, but this is no longer the case. I know that I should celebrate this season, this autumn of my life, but it is a bit of a challenge to want to capture it as much, especially with the busy and tired (which by the way doesn't help one look younger!).
Anywho, I think to do it, I have to be spontaneous. The light was right yesterday and I jumped right in.
Very pretty! I remember so many of your selfies, and the ones I recall are the ones that tell a story: Little Red Riding Hood, Harry Potter, the one like Wyeth's Christina's World of your youngest going away on the bus, I saw Momma kissing Santa Claus, etc. Stories are timeless--they never grow old!
@janeandcharlie Thank you, Jane. I really did love doing them. Perhaps it is mostly just burn out and not having much time. I don't have time or energy to brainstorm such things anymore. One day...
yes! the queen of selfie is back, get lost kim kardashan west. yes, to get into self portrait mood, i need to have a theme otherwise, there's no point. but in your case, as soon as i saw the tree, it just seemed so wrong that you weren't in the picture. aces, kiddo. aces!
A great idea for a selfie under this gorgeous tree. I think you look young for your age, but I do understand the feeling of looking in the mirror, and starting to see the aging.
