SPC - What I Wear 1

The November theme for Self Portrait Challenge is "What I Wear". In general "what I wear" is a bit dull and boring, so this month will be a challenge for me. For week 1 I have decided to take a photo of some of the typical clothes that I wear to work. It's standard corporate-drone wear - Dockers and a polo or button-down shirt. This kind of stuff is designed not to offend, to keep the wearer from standing out. It says you're "one of us". Who wants to see a picture of that? So I tried to freak things up a little even though my clothes are comfortably numb. And even though I recently complained about my gut, that's not my gelatinous midsection sticking out in this photo, it's the shirt poofing out, I swear!

Vanessa says "arrested" -- looks more like stabbed to me! :-)

Pretty much what I have to wear to work too.

So funny to read through the comments to see what others see. To me it looks like you are just about to jump up in the air - or maybe just landed from jumping. It's a fun photo!
