Melinda sits on the hardwood and takes a floor-mirror selfie in a pale blue long-sleeve bodysuit. She wears glasses, her blonde hair is loose, and she looks at the phone in both hands. One knee is raised, the other leg stretches out to the side, and her bare feet show in the mirror and again at the edge of the frame. The bodysuit covers her breasts, stomach, and hips, and her thighs stay bare.
