SHOW YOURSELF! (The Obligatory Pics Thread)

Excellent t-shirt, excellent ensemble, excellent person!

 

Spoiler: it me

If Bernard Black had a baby with a hobbit, that would be me.
Also: this was me trying to do an OOTD selfie, but the lighting and the camera were completely insufficient. Fortunately, the result was cute anyway.

 

@Elph you're really cute! :D

 

@Elph u have the cutest scowly face...... also i love that pendant you're wearing, what is it made of?? :0

 

@Elph "Who are you? Have I joined a cult?"

 

Aw, thanks! :D The shirt was a birthday gift from a friend--it's actually a crop top (I cropped it a bit further since my friend ordered it a size too big; neither of us realized it ran large, so she ordered it in the size I told her I normally wear, which is completely reasonable so I ain't even mad), and it's SUPER comfy and soft.

 

@EulersBidentity I like to quote this regularly, often as a caption to my selfies.
@unknownanonymous thank!! *blushy kaomoji*
@applechime It's a wooden pendant painted with acrylic and watercolor, then coated with a waterproof finish, which is reflecting weirdly in the first selfie... in real life it's not all grey like that, it's actually a picture of a stained glass window. It's the same image as the one next to my left boob in the second picture.
#it's the album art for the musical bare: a pop opera #because i am a huge gay dork who is literally in love with that play #no seriously #i refer to it only semi-jokingly as my boyfriend

 

so i got a hair cut a bit ago and it's super cute & also my parents bought new a house which means moving to a New State which as been a Whole Thing

Spoiler: face ensues

 

@Choco your hair + face + general ensemble are A++++ *insert good shit meme*

 

Spoiler

With pals

 

(gets distracted by the cool stitch pattern on your sweater)

 

Turns out I actually look good in bright blue lipstick?

 

@applechime ....th-thank you so much omg *blushu*

@Acey everyone looks good in bright blue lipstick, these are #facts

also, @windmill that sweater looks super comfy & the color is very pretty, A+ knitwear choices

 

I am getting so tanned/sunburned here and I love it


(why do these always do the sideways thing, I think I've complained about this every time I post a selfie)

 

I upload them to Imgur and use the [ img src="img.png" ] thing.

 

ive been trying for the last half hour or so to take a selfie that looks more masculine than usual (which i've. never tried to do before, but i wanted to try because of the 'i know you are but what am i' thread) and i think i have achieved, at the most, a sort of femme-leaning androgyny. :/ masculinity is more difficult than i thought.

forgive my lack of fashion and damp hair!!

Spoiler: ???

regular sort of selfie for comparison???

idk??? how do u masculine. a failed experiment but it was sort of fun :p

 

angle your camera slightly more so you're shot from a subtle low angle. square your shoulders more and frown. narrow your eyes a little, but try not to squint (It's kind of a disapproving hardass expression you're aiming for)
Hair tousled and over the ears but not in front of the face also ready more masc. the wet look actually helps there, i think. Try a sort of man-bun-esque look?
this is of course all minus the wonders contouring can do :P

 

attempt number 2, with more scowling!! also a cat under my arm, which makes it difficult to maintain a scowl

Spoiler: >:[

 

yeah i think that looks significantly more masc!

(Also you have a great face :P)
