Hair- Raising Walk of Shame!

Every so often, I go through my photo album and stare at some photos of myself and laugh out loud (while I’m alone. Yes, I know I am very silly LOL). I have a lot of photos of other people (mostly of friends, family, and models haha), and little photos of myself. You see, I’m not exactly what you call a photographer’s dream subject. Nor do I deem myself worthy enough to star in my very own style blog (I think it would be tough to convince someone to take my photos daily without that person cringing each time I ask to have photos taken LOL… oh and I don’t have a budget to pay for a photographer either haha I know, loser). 

The job of those girls who appear daily on their style blog? Not easy at all! Some of you may laugh at what they do. I admit on rare occasions I do too but only because I cannot see myself doing what they do– and not for lack of trying either! I keeled over with laughter when I saw the photos my friend took of me once as I did those style blogger “poses”– and obviously those photos never made it to this blog LOL (really, I was too ashamed to publish them– in fact, I deleted them. ASAP. I get a stomach ache everytime I remember them– because I laugh too hard and too much! Yes, it was THAT bad haha). 

You see, to have a successful style blog, you not only have to look fantastic, you also have to know how to “act” and well, “emote” for those money shots!  But on today’s post, the “style” photos that you see below are really waiting to be published. They can’t be put to waste by not being published! LOL. I’m only too glad that there are photography enthusiasts (and a pro) who helped capture the moment. To Geolette, Gabby, Cindy, Mycke, and Ria, thank you for allowing these photos to “happen” LOL.

Before the photos, the story: I had a super fun magazine shoot yesterday and we decided to have hair and makeup done at Shu Uemura in Rockwell Power Plant instead of having it done at my friend Claudette’s place (who so kindly lent me her flat) at Rockwell. So after hair and makeup was complete, Ria (from the magazine), Mycke (hair stylist), Cindy (makeup artist), and I walked across the street to go to the other building. You might think it’s just another “walk”, but I tell you this was not an ordinary walk. I got stared at, and short of me asking those people who stared “whatcha looking at?”, I’m sure chuckles would’ve been heard had they not tried to pacify their laughter. 😀

After all, it’s not often you’d see me this way (or any other woman for that matter). THIS was what passer-by,  security guys, mall goers, and motorists saw: My hair- raising curling walk of shame 😀

Like the hair? Oh yes, I walked with a straight face while these curlers or rollers or whatever they’re called these days were velcro’d to the hair on my head. LOL

I had a hoot with this! But that doesn’t mean I’m ready to take photos of what I wear everyday. I really can’t “emote” (and then there’s the issue of what I wear daily… hmmm… ok, I digress LOL)

I shall never forget my walk of shame yesterday 🙂 It was hilarious, but it was sooo much fun 🙂 And how was your day?
