During the move from the old site to the new one, I created the character of our spokes model to use in posts discussing the move. These were all taken in an hour or so selfie photo shoot. Since life is keeping Kandi idling a bit on the sidelines, here are a few highlights of this shoot.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Little story: This past Monday (2021), I was working with about an hour to kill between pick ups. Being at work, I was grubby, three day growth, sweaty, t-shirt, dirty jeans, work boots and a ball cap. I went and walked the mall, with a stop at the Dillard’s lingerie department. Both of my friends, Janet and Amy were working. We chatted a bit, I browsed for clearance items. A few customers made their purchases. Janet showed me the dress Amy was contemplating purchasing for her daughter’s wedding rehearsal dinner, a beautiful Calvin Klein royal blue dress. We talked about it and its merits, but Amy thought it might be too big around her arms (she is slight). So she tried it on for Janet and I. It fit very well and she was quite lovely! I offered constructive criticism and pointed out how well it fit, with specific suggestions regarding shoes and accessories. She was so happy she had tried it on for us and I thanked them both for including me in that moment. And for me, it was indeed a moment. I was simply one of the girls, in my mind and in reality and it was special!

It’s really cool you have such a nice friendship with those ladies and how they accept you no matter your manor of dress.
Very special indeed
I also noticed all that snow in your background of your pictures glad we are past that weather after the mess we had here in Texas in Feb.
I could not agree more! Yeah, those pictures were taken a few months back, although we did get some snow earlier this month!
Kandi,
I take it that you are dressing for the job you want?
You certainly look the part.
Best Wishes,
Penny from Edinburgh.
Well aren’t you so sweet? Thanks Penny!!
I don’t know what it is about this photo shoot Kandi, especially with all of them selfies, but they are all amazing. You are just glowing and everything in them is just right. Your prettiness, perfect lighting, your smile radiating happiness. I don’t think a professional shoot could have turned out any better. There’s no doubt these are all keepers girl.
That was how I survived the pandemic, doing things like this shoot. Thanks my dear!!
Kandi, you look very pretty and very feminine. Love the hair style. It is nice you have friends that can be so accepting, I am hoping for that acceptance from my loved ones.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas Kandi.
Merry Christmas darling!!!
You looked simply lovely in those photoshoots Kandi. And I love that you could go into the mall in male mode wearing drab work clothes and still have your lady friends treat you like one of them. Those are true friends and it says a lot about your character too, that they would see you in that way no matter how you look.
What an awesome experience Kandi. A lesson I need to learn and be “just one of the girls”. Baby steps I’ll get there. I just love your pics you are a supermodel Kandi darling
