My New Hat

[foxgrrl]

New Hat I got a new hat for my birthday last month. lj user=dv_girl bought it for me. For those of you who have never met me before, that is my foxy self modeling the hat. I think that I've reached the point where I'm not so self-conscious about looking like a guy, but now I'm self-conscious about the scars on my face. Photos of me never quite seem to match up with what I think I look like. I've often wondered if flipping photos to be mirror images would help.

I got a new hat for my birthday last month. dv_girl bought it for me. For those of you who have never met me before, that is indeed my foxy self modeling the hat.

I think that I've reached the point where I'm not so self-conscious about looking like a guy, but now I'm self-conscious about the scars on my face. Photos of me never quite seem to match up with what I think I look like. I've often wondered if flipping photos to be mirror images would help — except what I see in the mirror doesn't really match up either.

casidhe was operating my camera for these.

Hats need jewelry sometimes too

Hats are fun! Plus, sometimes they're good for keeping one's head in. But I like the jewelry comment. At present, I go for simply a feather (it's a really nice black felt coachman's hat, not the one pictured in the icon, so it's more inclined toward a feather on the left – or, in my case, on the right) but I always swap the feather out to match my clothing. I'll admit, I sometimes consider other forms of decoration, but I'm not sure what would work.
