problem solver

 
Dress: Old Navy   Belt & Shoes: Target

I coach for a program called Girls on the Run and it started a few weeks ago.  Which means that a few times a week I change right into running clothes after school.  Therefore I need to take some outfit pictures in the morning.
  
Unless of course you'd like to see some outfit posts like this: 


So my problem is that my already small eyes look even smaller when it's early and I'm tired.  
Remember this post

Therefore today  I've resorted to not looking at the camera in some sort of artistic, modeling way. 

That or I look like I am sleeping. 

(Which is a problem I actually wouldn't mind as I currently face the opposite problem of not being able to sleep.)

either way. guess it hides my tired face. 

Glad Monday is over and 4 more days to Spring Break.

I adore that dress! i have a thing for button up dresses...they're so cute :)

I'm cracking up that you're trying "artistic" poses, because I am terrible at that!
But you did a good job!

Hope you had a wonderful day, girl!

I love that pose and I think it's a great solution to the small eyes thing. And your outfit is super cute!! I love those yellow flats - are they at Target this spring season?

Cute outfit! (And I always do the looking down trick. It's an easier way for me to get a decent shot of my outfit without a goofy expression getting in the way... not that you'd ever have that problem.)

psychelyn said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

That pose worked. I do the same, when I;m tired or not confident about how I look like at certain days, I try to look away from the camera which usually turns out OK :)

Pamela said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Love your outfit!!

Jennifer @ Delightfully Noted said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

That is probably one of the cutest plaid dresses I have seen in awhile! Whoo hoo, I agree yay for MOnday being over!

Nicole Feliciano said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

I have small eyes too--you totally rocked this pose and I love that you're coaching girls on the run! I'm swinging by from Monday Mingle (even though it's Tuesday). This week I'm sharing denim trends on my style post http://www.momtrends.com/2012/03/spring-denim-trends/

I think it's hilarious how you always mention your small eyes--the things that we hate about ourselves that no one else notices. :) Love the dress!

Jeanine Byers said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Great spring dress! How cool that you are coaching a girls' running group.

I can relate to not sleeping. Thanks for sharing, good to know I am not the only one not sleeping enough. Cute outfit by the way. Enjoy Spring break.
