Ready, Set, Go

Posted by Ashley at 5:42 PM

I thought the theme fit perfectly for me getting ready for my first date this year...



Jewelry all on...now time to do the hair.

Hair completed...still no makeup.


And the makeup process, or some of it anyways.






The completed me...


And me with my new coat on....what he will see the first time he sees me in person...

What a girl has to go through for a guy....hehehe!

ETA - For those wondering, I set up my tripod in the bathroom doorway and shot these with my wireless remote.
