Sundays are for Photo Shoots - March 19, 2017

And slaying Street Style with Strange Stares...

Not every photo can be a winner. While we are prepping our blog updates we'd thought we'd give you a fun sneak peak into our insanity. This isn't one of those "oh we're normal people too" posts. It's more about just sharing how we don't take ourselves too seriously and often have way too much fun trying to snap pics for the blog. We hope you can relate to our #photofails. :-) 

If you love to laugh, you love Kristen Wiig and you especially love this recurring character she played on SNL. 

I'm sure most of you have 345 selfies that are on your phone that will never see the light of day. (OR FAR MORE...) SO DO WE. Especially on the days where we do bulk shooting for the blog! No matter how much we try to channel Giselle, sometimes the only channel we pick up is Gus, the mouse from Cinderella, on an old analog box set TV...and trust me...Gus never slayed a runway like Giselle. 

Don't search this post for shopping details because we aren't tagging the brands in these outtakes...they deserve better than the goofiness below. 

I was supposed to be seducing the camera here...is this face not seductive? LMAO

I'd like to think we take more fab than drab photos, but for that is certainly not the case every shoot. I often feel like Ron Burgundy of facial expressions...in my mind I think "cool," but my face displays crazy. Oh well...sex appeal isn't my thing. In the particular image above Kimberly was attempting to help me relax my face by giving me life scenarios to imagine, which is super helpful. I don't recall the exact wording here but I believe we were discussing seducing Adam Levine with a facial expression...I'm absolutely positive this would this not seduce him, but might actually earn myself a restraining order. :-) 

Kimberly just trying to get me to stop goofing off and take her picture like a normal photographer would. 

The above outtake will show that Kimberly is by far the more photogenic of the two of us. She understands where to place her head and what not to do. AND even her outtakes are funnier. AND when we tell you her big announcement soon you will be even more impressed with how fabulous she is looking. 

So, look for these shopping deets and links in the upcoming posts, but enjoy our goofy moodiness for one day.
