Pensively Staring Off-Camera

I am a naturally pensive person, but obviously this photo is posed. Why do we do this? Pose like we want to be seen? I’m not sure I have an answer for it. I do want you to know that I am a deep thinker, but I rarely stare off while someone else is taking a picture of me. Is it disingenuous to have these photos taken? I don’t know. It looks cool and I can’t fault the photographer for her direction or artistic shot. I prefer this dancing photo. Or this photo where I’m laughing. But pensive is necessary, I guess, at least for the photos.

Things I only bought because they were on sale. Shirts that no longer looked good. Shoes that were worn out. Honestly, I was embarrassed that my closet was full of items I never wore when people in my community needed clothes and shoes. The thing about my clothing though, is that I need variety for my job. For 8 years I was on camera every single morning. I was also working some red carpets, and doing long form interviews with celebrities on camera. That’s where Rent the Runway came into my life. I heard about it and began using the service every single week. With a small break, I’ve used it for 5 years, 5 items per week. When I say it has changed my life, I’m not exaggerating. If I need a gown for a big event, like The Breeder’s cup, I can add it to my shipment I’ve also had plenty of fashionable outfits to wear on my travels….
