Like a LBD(little black dress) I'm advocating that all ladies should have a LBS(little blue suit). I've worn this before here. It's a very versatile combo: this suit can be casual with a t-shirt and loafers, a fun take on cocktail attire with a slinky blouse and heels, and in this instance for work, with a high-neck blouse and funky sandal booties. And like any suit it's always a good idea to break up the pieces and wear them separately. Word to the wise, no matter how many times you may wear one half of a suit get both dry-cleaned at the same time/frequency.
Now some notes on lighting. The above pics were taken on our back deck. We tried to get the shots near where we park are car in Shadyside, but the direct sunlight not only washed out the outfit's details, the subsequent shadows created an unbalanced image. See below.
Neither of these images are horrible, but they're not good. Since starting this blog Mr. Keller and I have both learned more about photography, lighting, camera angles and backdrops(granted with some major trial and error). It's been a nice "side effect" of taking outfit photos and editing them for each post. Now, I just need to learn what to do with my face in these pictures. Thank God for sunglasses and the "look down and away" pose.
Ooh la la, that shirt!
