makeup

Generally I don’t like going out on weekends if my wife is around, because we don’t really get to see each other too much on account of A: full time job, and B: Commute time, but when the opportunity to go out dressed presents itself, I at least try to take it. On this occasion, I packed up a bag and headed into SF to hang out with a friend of mine. Got to her place. Got changed. Got made up. Got nervous. Got outta there!

Out on the town… Sorry, town…

A lot of stuff has happened over the last few months. I’ve been out a few times with friends. Completely dressed up in flapper garb at a company party.

I’ve been a bit on the snowed-under side of things for what seems like months now. A few weeks ago, I bought some new clothes, and hadn’t really had a chance to actually try them out. In between working on side-projects, and being summoned to squash bugs on sunday mornings, I finally managed to get a chance to get dressed up and take some pics.   It was a bit too dark for the webcam after a while

So last night, after much hemming and hawing, I put on an outfit, and left my apartment with a friend. Out in public. Oh god. The wine in my system seemed to calm my nerves, and the fact that there was a friendly face with me helped too. My expectations were mostly to be, you know, beaten with sticks, set-upon by a bloodthirsty pack of homophobes, each kitted out with a gut-spilling spear, a sign saying “KILL ALL TRANNYS” (because clearly, they wouldn’t be able to spell ‘Trannies’) and a loudspeaker to announce to anyone outside the nearby vicinity that, […]

Out in public: A whole new world

  As usual, you take thirty or forty photos, pick the one or two good (or at least, not-terrible) ones, and then discard the rest. This one’s not too bad – one day I’ll have to deal with my freshly-shaved face differently, on account of my stupidly dark stubble. Maybe better foundation/concealer. Or something else. Would love to hear some tips! Somewhat full-length. But sitting. Couldn’t get a good standing pic :( I desperately love these boots! I’ve got a bit of a stupid-face going on. Then again, you didn’t see the other ones :S Some days are good and […]
