Forum rules
Any show offs - not hair related - go here!

1) You must keep posts PG13.
2) If your pics are likely to be considered a little 'saucy' (sexy / suggestive shots are fine- so long as they are arty!) put NOT WORK SAFE/ NWS in your title.
3) When replying to a post, remember this is NOT the critique section.
4) Comments like " I love your eyes/ my god you are hot" are not helpful! Include them but please comment on the item/s being shown off too!
5) This Show Off section is only for showing off non hair related products, not making sales. Please make no references to eBay, A and P, or any kind of sales. You may offer the same item for sale in A and P, but no cross linking between A and P and Show Off. Show Off should be a place to comment and encourage each other; we don't want Show Off to become a billboard for sellers.

This is a gorgeous picture! You should be proud of it :-D I've got my first shoot on tuesday. EEKKS

I love the idea of this thread!
I only feel attractive when I wear cyber clothing- we took this pic of me in DC for the annual Sakura Matsuri (cherry blossom festival). I designed the concept for the kimono, and it was such a big success.

This one's about 18 months old now, but it's still my favourite picture of me.

Image

And this one's from just last weekend. I was delighted when I saw it as I usually look hideous when other people take pictures of me on nights out.

I always find flaws in my pictures, I prefer to take them myself, I guess I just know my angles :lol: but I'd say this is my favorite of me with my natural hair in a long time...


sorry it's kinda big ;)

Haha, I can totally understand the feeling, that's exactly how I feel when I see a picture of me that I actually look nice (and not like a man). :p

Paran0ir: You're gorgeous! And that's a great pic. I like the red/black colours and the pose.:)

Spikey555: I love your hair colour! Especially if it's your natural hair. Awesome! :shock:

Heres a pic of me from a trip to Cardiff for my (early) birthday gift last week, I just like that it incorporates me with what I do (performance studies XD) and I'm not pulling a stupid face for once.

I don't just generally like pictures of myself. but I love this one. It's not the most glamorous but it's such a nice picture. Like I could give this to my family nice.
Anyhoo, It was taken yesterday and the Sakura Festival here. It was fun!
