Shades of Pink

This was my attempt at outfit photos late in the day with the sun shining on me, rather than behind me (which is what I would typically do). It's a little intense, but don't be fooled, I was absolutely freezing. Open toe shoes and cropped pants were not exactly the best choices, but I don't want to change for the weather; why won't it change for me?

  2. The lighting is these is nuts - so pretty! I ventured outside for an outfit shot this morning and was pleasantly surprised to find it warmer than it was in Chicago, so that's something.

  22. You almost fooled me- it looked so much warmer :)
    You have the most beautiful settings for pictures -
    this morning I ran around trying to find a place on my parking place to take a picture - the cel fell on the floor and fell apart. Then the concierge showed up and then I had construction workers nearby. Not easy !
    Oh, did I mention i like your color scheme ?

  23. I love the glowy look of these photos, and find that I usually take my photos (99 percent of the time at least) with the sun shining on me instead of behind me. I just like the saturated colors it provides, and I can never quite get my exposure correct when shooting with the sun behind me. The light looks almost tropical (with your outfit colors) in these photos!

  24. Love the double pink, and one of my favorite color combos is pink + seafoam/whatever color your necklace is. Sorry it was so cold though ;)

    ReplyDelete
  25. First, these photos are gorgeous, beautiful light! Second, I am obsessed with your hot pink pants and the fact that they are cuffed. Third, love all of your jewelry, soooo pretty!

    ReplyDelete
  26. I've been experimenting with non-backlit photos, too! I love how saturated the colors come out, but I always end up with bizarre shadows everywhere from tree branches, oops. I'm totally fooled by these photos. You could be in Florida for all I know.

  27. you look good in every kind of lighting. PS found a similar pair of pants at H&M and scooped them up because I love yours so much :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Ooooh, I like this lighting in your photo-- good good experiment on your half. That last photo is especially lovely. And those mint accessories! I think I will make a quest to your closet and steal all your minty-colored things.

    My, you're quite brave to be wearing open toed shoes in *gasp* January. But hey, who says you have to comply with what the weather wants? I like your attitude. You've got guts. You keep on rockin' and rollin' like the ocean behind you.

  31. Open-toed heels in winter is very brave but everyone needs a break don't you think? Love the big link bracelet

  32. I really like the look of button-down shirts under sweaters. I've been seeing it a lot and am dying to try it. The pink pants are awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Yay, the pink pants...I'll be wearing mine later this week!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Yayyy for color in New England!! I'm still kicking myself for returning those pants as opposed to exchanging for my proper size. You totally kill it every time you wear them! Love it!

    Also, I swear the sunsets were NOT that awesome when I was in that area... No snow AND no awesome sunsets? Talk about a let down, New England!
