Texan Lady

She’s a fox. Her hat’s tipped a little bit forward, and she never leaves without her hot beau by her side. Front row at every show, she’s a killer. Texas, I cannot wait to roam your downtown streets of Austin, tuck away in the back of your vintage shops, and lick the bbq sauce from my fingertips in the backyard. I’m ready to rock out and dance the night away, texan style. See you very soon SXSW. Save a seat at the bar for me.

A Grey Morning

(Volcom top, Free People cardigan and skirt, Vanessa Mooney necklace/rings, H&M hat)
Snow, grey skies, and my boots leaving trails of ice throughout my apartment. NYC, when will you cheer up? I’m braving it out and thinking “only a few more days until I’m sporting cropped tops and denim cut-offs” in Austin, Texas! I’m ready for cowboy hats, dusty roads, and the hot sun beaming on my face. Right now, you can find me passed out on the couch after a long day’s work under the blanket, bundled in all sorts of random layers. Oversize cardigans, long plaid skirts, and loads of Parisian stripes keep my dark winter wardrobe a little more upbeat. This week has been filled with early mornings, and hunching through the rain and puddles under my umbrella, literally using the thing as a safety weapon as I make my way to the studio or factory! Every day’s been one to create and honestly, I feel work never really ends. There’s always that one extra silly thing I find the need to do at the end of the day, whether it be jotting down notes, or scribbling poems that I had going through my head on the subway. Anyways, TGIF! And rather than resting, Dylana will be in town, meaning late nights with never-ending conversations and laughter! The city’s always better when she’s around. The excitement in never really knowing what we’ll end up doing. Luckily the guitar’s got all new strings, and can calm us throughout the day. I’m still dying for another day of recording to just get all these tunes out there. It’s next week that I’ll put the guitar to rest as I follow my favorite bands through Austin…whistling in the wind.

Loads to come, so just follow my Instagram (natalieoffduty)!

Yellow Streak

Shoeline.com S/S ’13 featuring the Born “Astoria” Sandal
Here is a first peek inside the details to my Shoeline.com S/S ’13 campaign shoot! The team was all about kaleidoscope colors, YELLOWs, BLUES, and loads of prints for the season. Here, I am with a little lift in their Born “Astoria” sandal. Shot in Coney Island, my wrists were covered in beads from my bumming beach days and travels, along with wristbands from last night’s party. Mixed in with my put-together look, I felt like quite the lady. I did get a little tan, and of course, left the shoot with some of my favorite kicks, including these beauties. Stay tuned as I post short snippets from my Shoeline.com print campaign!
