I’m Ready for My Close Up!

September 22nd, 2011 @ 11:16 am by Miss Warbler

It’s almost time for our long awaited engagement session! In two weeks, the Warblers will channel Madonna and strike a pose. Or snidely proclaim our hatred for hydrangeas. Not cool, Madonna! In case you missed it:

Of course, engagement sesh time gives me the excuse to run out and buy some new outfits. When I sat down with Mr. Warbs to discuss our “engagement look” Mr. Warbs shrugged and said, “I don’t know…jeans and a polo shirt?” Boys. Lately I’ve been getting anxious about our photos, because the plan is to use them in our invitations.

And like a zillion people are going to see them. OK, more like 50. But that’s a lot to people who don’t like taking photos. People like the Warblers. So I turned to my good friend Google to figure out my “look.” Here are a couple I created.

As you can tell, I am leaning towards the kimono/shirt dress look. I think red is my signature color, so I’ll probably wear a red dress. I couldn’t narrow down the shoes for the blue dress so I threw them all in there. Although I would love to rock a blue dress and  kick ass red shoes in the photos, I can always save the shoes for the wedding!

Which dress do you like, red or blue?

I like the Red, but I think the Blue dress with the Red shoes would look amazing!

OMG thank you for [osting that Madonna video - she is such a mess and I love that her ridiculousness was caught on camera!

Both dresses are cute - where are you planning on taking your e-pics?

I love the red, especially since it is your signature color. You’ve got to wear those shoes somewhere else though!

I wore a red top in our engagement photos and I love how it came out - so my vote is for RED!

I’m a sucker for blue & red so I would vote blue dress and red shoes…

I love the Madonna clip BTW, so nice to capture her being her snotty, pretentious self with her snotty, pretentious and totally phony pseudo-British accent. Attention Madonna: YOU ARE FROM DETROIT.

I like both. You could do an outfit change and keep the same accessories (gold goes with both)!
