The blog Me In My Place
depicts scantily-clad women lolling around their immaculate houses,
reclining on soft rugs and lounging in plush leather chairs, as their
hair tumbles artfully around their shoulders.
Actress and cosplay enthusiast Chloe Dykstra felt the images weren't a particularly accurate depiction of what women do in leisure time at home, so she decided to create her own series of photos, entitled, 'Me ACTUALLY In My Place,' shot by Greg De Stefano.
Dykstra says, 'I always see these girls doing photoshoots for 'Me In My Place', a website dedicated to depicting girls 'naturally' lounging half-naked and f***-me-eyed in their perfectly organized, tidy habitat. This shoot... Well, this is the s**t I actually do in my place.'
The difference is what she's doing 'in her place.'
From popping a pimple to picking up dog poop, Dykstra slobs around the house in a much more accurate depiction of the female comfort zone.
'I specifically did myself up to look like the girls in MIMP. Otherwise the subject matter wouldn't stand alone as a joke. You'd just be like "WHY DO I WANT TO SEE A GIRL IN SWEATPANTS AND NO MAKE UP PICKING UP DOG S**T,”' she said.
Founder of the Me In My Place blog Michael Edwards told MailOnline that he would love to shoot Chloe Dykstra for the blog and has extended the offer to Dykstra. She has not yet responded.
The Me In My Place app is now available for download.

Zit remedy: Dkystra decided to create a series
of photographs of herself doing the things she actually does at home,
such as popping pimples
Me time: Dykstra, who has a web series about
gaming, likes to nerd out playing video games and eating snacks when
she's home alone
Like the women featured in Me In My Place which has a celebrity version in Esquire featuring models such as
Jessica Hart and actresses such as Lake Bell, Dykstra is wearing skimpy
underwear in her photo series.The difference is what she's doing 'in her place.'

Big leap: Me In My Place depicts women in their homes posing saucily by the firewood and leaping for joy in the dining room
Model behavior: In stark contrast to Dykstra
taking a whiff of her dirty laundry, this model rolls on her clean
carpet in a crisp shirt and thong for Me In My Place
Wash day: Dykstra wanted to put a different spin
on the blog Me In My Place, so shot the series in her home with the
idea of showing what she really does when she's at home
Lounging: The Esquire version of Me In My Place
shows gorgeous women like Dykstra - though they're never on Facebook
stuffing their mouths with popcorn
Weighty: Dkystra shows what goes into the seemingly effortless beauty of the models and actresses featured in Me In My Place
Fridge raid: When home alone, women are no less likely than men to eat directly from cans and swig milk out of the carton
Poop duty: One of the less pleasant domestic tasks that make up Dykstra's daily routine
Whip it good: Dykstra helps herself to some Reddi Wip (left), which may have led directly to the next situation (right)
Does not compute: Dykstra works on the computer while her dog chills out on the sofa
Game plan: Playing video games takes up a large chunk of Dykstra's time when she's at home
Natural habitat: Dykstra's series shows a very different idea of women at home than Me In My Place
