How to put a selfie and not look stupid
Selfie was recognized as one of the main phenomena of 2012, it is studied by sociologists, and The New Yorker publishes the article "Selfie is back in fashion." We are ashamed, but we continue to do so. The other day the Copselfies blog has appeared on the network with the "self-shooting" guys in police uniform, to which our entire editorial board and part of Look At Me have already subscribed. News with the word selfie appears in Google every day - and the names of celebrities who sat down in a puddle regularly flash in them. In general, it's time to start learning from the mistakes of others: we have chosen a few additional options for a selfie that can serve as an excuse for it - or, on the contrary, will spoil everything completely.
Show form
No, not physical (see the last paragraph). The only thing worth wearing a uniform at work is the opportunity to show it to the online world. Pink dressing gown saleswoman in Agent Provocateur, an apron of an ice-maker or a police officer’s outfit - believe me, this is for you.
Watch the background
Of course, at the moment of "samostrel" you can only think of the most advantageous perspective, but it is not bad to take into account what is happening around you. It is strongly advised not to make a selfie while driving (even in traffic) or at a match, standing on the podium with your back to the field. Perhaps you catch a baseball in a shot - a second before it hits you in the back of the head.
Take the idol off
Selfie with a celebrity is a classic. If you met Devendra Banhart at a party, whom you have long dreamed of meeting, or are sitting at a family dinner next to a great scientist, there is nothing wrong with taking a picture with him. Follow the example of Meryl Streep, who did not hesitate to make a selfie with Hillary Clinton.
Personal leave yourself
It is terrible to think who and how many times lazhanulsya in social networks, but some were smart enough to take a selfie in the mask of a robber before you go to work.
Put yourself at least once without makeup
If your boyfriend has never seen you without bright arrows, and your mother does not remember the real color of your eyebrows, rather follow the example of Lady Gaga. Relatives will accept you any, and subscribers in instagram - especially.
Remember mirror surfaces
Do not forget that danger is everywhere - on the surface of a tureen or a glass table top rubbed to shine. Not to mention the mirror behind the back: there is nothing more pitiable than trying to give a lonely selfie for the picture taken by the boyfriend. The Sydney promoter recently pleased two thousand subscribers with the occasional negligee. I thought I was taking a sandwich photo.
Do not get carried away postmodernism
The most convenient excuse for a selfie is a parody of someone else's selfie. Here you have to be careful: for example, to mimic patients is bad. And forget about Scarlettiyohnssoning, as most of your tape did.
Call for help
When your single selfies stop collecting huskies, it's time to take on heavy artillery. Kitty has never failed.
Think twice
Well, the main rule that must be remembered once and for all: when you really want to play naked, think. And then think again. Even if you are 70, you are a famous TV presenter, and your viewers just have to know that your press looks 40 or even less. Even if it seems to you that you bare exactly in moderation. Most likely, you are mistaken.
