The Fashion Faux Pas of Gabrielle An unconventional fashion blogger trying to find her place on the internet

 Teaching myself to pose…

14/05/2017

Although I am vain, I’m not very good at posing for photos – especially when it comes to blog photos and outfit posts.
My signature pose for pictures is to smile a big toothy smile at the camera and a tilt of the head. Take a look at a snapshot of the many different photos with the same signature smile;

So over the last couple of months, I’ve been trying to find some poses which work for me and don’t make me look like a child attempting to look like an adult (because let’s face it – girl got a baby face).
I thought this post would be a fun idea as I’m a big fan of making fun of myself and even have a video on my channel to go alongside (keep scrolling to watch it here!), which probably better shows how awkward I am.
Below are some snaps which demonstrate me attempting to be an über cool fashion blogger that knows what she’s doing (which is totally untrue and this post is me highlighting that);


So what the hell am I on about?
I’ve found that I cannot look directly at the camera because I feel massively awkward, I put my limbs in weird positions and my face just looks like a miserable child’s!


Check out my latest video where I give you a real time view of what an awkward poser I am;

 
Until next time…

    This is something I need to learn how to do myself, I want to do more OOTD but I have no idea how to pose so I end up just not doing it.

      The struggle is real! I recommend just practicing – you don’t need to post them until you’re happy, but it’s also a lot of fun 😉

Thought I’d make another appearance on here sinc Thought I’d make another appearance on here since it’s been over a year since my last post, so here’s one from my Tiktok #sustainableootd #ootd #vintedfinds
Had such a good night for @maismurph ‘s surprise Had such a good night for @maismurph ‘s surprise birthday outing last night, although I’m definitely feeling it today! Love you both loads ❤️❤️
So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve been working and saving away with this gorgeous man to make sure that we could buy a house and we’ve only gone and done it! We’re now in the process of fixing it up and getting our bedroom ready to move in to, so hope we can get in next week! I’m going to be sharing the whole process on our Tiktok account which you can follow @thealbonrenovation - the first post on there is just a video showing the whole house as it was when we bought it on Friday (it’s changed a lot since then!) - so give us a follow it you love a bit of home renovation! 🥳🥳 #firsttimebuyers #newhouse
When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear ❄️ what a week it’s been! I’ve been shivering away, heating on full blast and my dressing gown wrapped around me as I work this week - I love the look of snow but hate the cold! Had a day of hypochondria where I had a cough and was convinced it was Covid - but turns out my husband knows me best and that it wasn’t. And that’s probably the most exciting bit of news I l have for you all! How are you all doing?!
Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time between posts as I have been in the last few months, so I think a couple of weeks is an improvement! On our way home from food shopping last week (highlight of the week!) we decided to stop by one of my favourite spots to take some outfit photos, where the majority of what I’m wearing is second hand (bag, jacket and jumper). I’m getting extremely stir crazy, but at the same time have turned into quite the hermit, I miss going out for lunch with Aaron, mooching around the charity shops and going out to do site visits for work - let’s hope this vaccine helps bring some normality!
And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to make myself feel like I was going somewhere tonight by putting a full face of makeup on, with the intention of sitting on the sofa sharing a bottle of Disaronno with Aaron to see the new year in! We might hit up the kitchen, the living room and Aaron suggested the bathroom but I wasn’t sure 😂 what have you got planned for tonight? And Happy New Year to everyone!
And that’s Christmas over for another year (alth And that’s Christmas over for another year (although let’s be honest, 2020 may as well not have happened!) and I just hope to god 2021 is a damn site better for everyone! Since I’ve been attempting to cut out purchasing brand new clothing all together, bar a few items such as underwear and pyjamas, I’m hoping once Hertfordshire is out of Tier 4 that I can head to the shops and do some serious secondhand shopping and use the vouchers I got to buy myself some new beauty bits. How was your quiet Christmas and have you got any beauty recommendations for me? #hertsbloggers #fashionbloggeruk #ukfashionblogger #ukstyleblogger #hertsbloggerlove #sustainablefashionblogger #secondhandfashionblogger #petitebloggeruk #petitefashionbloggeruk #outfitinspo #mylookoftheday #ootdshare #ukfashionblog #petitestyle #hertfordshirebloggers #funkyfashion #ukfashion #ootdinspo #canon700d #canon #amatuerphotography #aspiringfashionblogger #aspiringblogger
