Before you go thinking that I am trying to become a fashion blog minus good pictures, lighting, or editing techniques, (or better yet, fashion!) relax. Before you go assuming that this is now Tales of Me and My Closet (I’ve used that joke with two of you before so you don’t have to laugh), it’s not that either. Before you go saying, “Bridget is so lame! What is she thinking with these shotty pictures? It’s crap! This will go nowhere!” fear not because I’ve already thought it!
What is for real is that I liked my outfit and I thought you might too. I also had to provide evidence that I do wear things other than shorts and tights. Yes, one can even wear a maxi dress with a long sleeved shirt underneath and–poof!–summer attire becomes fall once again! So… when I got home at 6 pm, ate dinner, cleaned up the kitchen, and then decided to take a picture, good lighting had left for the day and flash photography does not do a body well. So, whatcha see is whatcha get. Next time, if there is a next time, I’ll do better.

what i have deduced from the Tales of Bridget and Her Closet series, is that you share my obsession with boots.
Diana Mieczan says

we really just need to be next door neighbors and take turns with this picture thing. I'm sure husband would be happy for the break. That maxi dress is a beaut with those boots!

Love the outfit! Who doesn't love a good pair of fall boots?!
Camilla Leila says
this post makes me laugh. but you really do look great.
love turning summer clothes into winter outfits.
KEEP DOING THE FASHION POSTS, you fashionista you.
Morgan and Lua says
I like it! And I have nothing against a little outfit shot here and there and I don't think the rest of your readers do either. This is after all a blog about your life and your interests. If you happen to be interested in style or your style for the day, then that should definitely be a part of your bloggity reality.
the end.

yours truly says
Who would think that?! You are adorable, I love seeing your adorable classic outfits with a twist, bad photos (your words not mine), and especially your witty writing. I wish I lived near you so we could lunch, because I bet I would be laughing the entire time!
Torrie says
How can we be bored with your post when you use words like "shotty"… low-lighted-photography or not?? 🙂
kelly ann says

So Ralph Lauren! You just need a giant turquoise belt buckle and the look would be 100%. Ask for tripod for your birthday so you can start the closet blog!!
