Spring is Here!

sweet_stuff_mainpage_4Spring is one of the best seasons.  Not only does it start to get warmer but pastels also start springing up (pun!).  I have a deep love for pastel colored hair.  I mean what girl doesn’t want beautiful colored hair that looks like candy??  So I thought in spirit of spring and the return of beautiful colors, I would post two of these photos from 
http://www.shop-summerland.com/
.  It is a cute online vintage store.  Their clothes are beautiful as well as their photos.

All These Moving Parts


OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAWhile I was shopping in Montreal I found these incredible necklaces.  The tool necklaces were made out of actual bicycle tools!  I loved how the designer used the chairs and bicycle tools.  These pieces are definitely unique ones that are rarely found.  If you ever see some I would definitely pick up one!  Which necklace would you buy, a chair or a tool necklace??

 

Union Square


OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
It has been too long since I last posted. I have to say my goal of blogging more blogging id not exactly going as I planned.  But have no fear because, I started taking this photography class.  It is super awesome and every time I go I come out with a giant smile on my face.  Last week when hanging around Union Square after class, I also began to realize that sometimes I can be super creepy when photographing people.  Sometimes creepy can be good, but other times people genuinely don’t appreciate being photographed unexpectedly.  So my goal for the next few months are to find people voluntarily willing to take a photo.

P.S. this woman’s jacket is so cool!

Turn that Fashion Upside Down


By far February is the WORST season ever!!  Not only is it super cold but everyone is on their knees begging for a break in the routine.  But, when the going gets tough there is always fashion to help us through.  But, Anna Dello Russo’s fashion taste is like no other I have ever known.  I’m talking high end couture but with a splash of Betsy Johnson.  It’s quite a feast for the eyes.  Check it out!

Obsession: Penelope Chilver’s bags

A Fashionable Winter


Lately, if you haven’t been outside (or live in a really warm area), it has been flipping FREEZING!!.  It’s like Mother Nature woke up one day and decided that this week was the best time to drop temperatures.   But, winter also has it perks.  For example,  as a big fun of layers what time better than winter to layer up.  But, winter also has it’s downsides.  Most of the time you are under a big coat with hats and scarves.  So I thought tonight’s post should reflect the efforts the fashionable go to look amazing in the winter.  Here are the top three looks that I thought were great for this season.
