TWiP: of Polka Dots and selfies

This Week in Pictures

Despite the name of this place, I don’t have a whole lot of polka dots in my wardrobe. But every once in a while I acquire some, and I always think they’re so much fun. This week, I got myself a new pair of sunglasses, and yep. They have polka dots on them.

These are not your everyday sunglasses. In fact, when I put them on, I just couldn’t see wearing them with my usual t-shirt. These suckers demand a slinky black dress. Or a black knit fit-and-flare dress. Or jeans and a lacy black tank. Basically anything black. They require me to wear black, and probably red lipstick too. This is not really a sacrifice for me 😉

Also, I am happy to report that I dealt with last week’s unhappy hair issue, and as a result I have been happy all week. It’s a little ridiculous how much of my mood is wrapped up in having a good hair day, but what can I say? I have actually gotten a lot better about this through the years. Nowadays a single bad hair day doesn’t bother me too much. It’s when I have a long string of them that I become miserable. And let me tell you, I had about a month-long blah streak before I finally gave in and headed to the salon.

Anyway. It’s all good now. You can tell I am happy when there are three selfies in one week, LOL!

So, what is This Week in Pictures?

It’s a roundup of the photos I shot for my Project 365 (one image each day for all of 2015), plus some everyday-life snapshots I posted on Instagram during the previous week.

Ready? Cast your mind back to this time last week…
