2. If you wouldn't wear it in real life, now is not the time
If you do this selfie photo shoot right (and you will!), you're going to want to use this photo for multiple purposes. As such, make sure you're wearing something that isn't too embellished or "out there" or super in-your-face sequin-y. Wear something that, well, looks like YOU. Once you've got the hang of taking the perfect selfie down, go crazy with hair, makeup, costumes, the works. But for now: Go natural. Go you.
