Taking Pictures

So, I've learned in the past year that what I see and what you see are two very different images! There are times I think I have picked a great outfit and then see it in a picture and wish I hadn't walked out of the house wearing it. I've started taking pictures of outfits I am unsure of to see what you see in order to make my decision.

The same goes for shopping. Have you ever bought something at the store thinking it was fabulous and put it on at home only to realize it must've been a skinny mirror in the fitting room? Or maybe even a completely different garment? What happens between the store and home? When you are in the fitting room, take a picture. Walk away. Look at the picture while you're shopping. If you love how it looks in the picture then you'll probably still love it when you put it on at home. It cuts down on impulse buying and you'll appreciate it more.
