[summary] Less confused. :)

So...

a) There's more skin showing. Which may or may not increase sexiness, depending on how the additional skin is showing. Also, cleavage.
b) I don't seem to be aware of the camara (ok, probably temporarily true. My shoes made me taller than jasra, and were therefore a significant distraction), so I'm not being ridiculous or otherwise posing in response to it (I do have some trouble handling being photographed, so this does not shock me).
c) Posture was not standing straight, nor totally straight on, so more body shape was visible. (yep. Curves. I suspect being accustomed to seeing myself from straight on will make it more difficult for me to see/notice this most of the time. The butt-wiggly picture from the back that I linked to was notable for _me_ because it's not a view I ever get, so I'm not accustomed to it)
d) People seem divided as to whether or not I look demure, amused, sultry, or something else entirely. (me? I think I look distracted, because I know that I _was_ at the time. I have trouble separating that knowledge to see how I might appear to others)
e) Clingy dress. (true. But so was the other picture. Perhaps it was especially clingy, even for clingy dresses?)

Also? Bats.

Also also? Y'all are good with the wording of things. I am actually able to _totally_ understand, with point b). (the others, while applicable, aren't as clear to me as significant differences from, say, the other pictures in the same batch)

I have no idea why point a) didn't occur to me when comparing with the dress I wore at halloween; perhaps because I feel more naked when there's ties that kept untying showing a bit more breast than was intentional, and because of the really high-cut leg-slit. (probably also because I don't _see_ myself from behind, ever)

Randomly informative

Since jasra was thoroughly intrigued when I mentioned it to her last night, I mention to the rest of you something called MyPoints, through which I get such things as $25 gift certificates to Barnes and Nobles, by viewing email ads from them (and clicking something in those ads) most of which are worth 5 points to view and click, many of which are worth more if one actually buys something from them. Those points eventually add up and get me the gift certificate I mentioned.

I've done it for years, so hadn't really thought about the fact that there may be people who did not know about it. :)
