This was such a fun day! I spent the morning at castings, had lunch in Chinatown, and ended the day holiday shopping at the Americana. These type of days are the best and thank goodness my sis Dy and I lugged around our camera because we got some awesome fun shots. I’m wearing a very slouchy Free People sweater with a Cheap Monday skirt. The shoulder bag is Melie Bianco. I wore this same bag, but in pink, in the October Free People catalog! See it here!! I’m in love with the floral print and it’s baby softness. Once I got downtown, I pulled off my heels, and changed into a pair of flat boots. Perfect for running around crazy downtown LA. For night, I swiped on some plum lipstick! The beautiful night lights at the Americana definitely got me in the holiday spirit! Just one of those amazing days trekking around town!

A little bit of color. A little black and white. There is something about these images that together, inspire me to take all my digital photos and press “film grain.” I love the smiles and the pouts. The mix of emotions in these photos are captivating. As for the fashion, everything looks vintage inspired. Tailored coats, chiffon gowns blowing in the wind, knitted skirts, and beige button-ups. Soft, young, and pretty.

Morning all! Weather here at home as been so beautiful lately. Warm and sunny. The wind has been kicking in though and I’m slightly sad that all the beautifully colored leaves will be falling, leaving them completely bare. I have been admiring the trees are around my house and taking snapshots of ones I never really took notice of before. Worth lugging around my huge camera for.

The wind, combined with the soft light of yesterday, was great for some photos of my outfit. Dylana tends to always capture the mood of the day perfectly with just a snapshot. I’m wearing a gorgeous beige dress by My Pet Square, an up and coming designer from New York. It has mesh detail with a really cool corset detail in the front. I love it. Cream is one of my favorite shades to wear! To dress it down, I threw on a rugged green parka. I liked making this perfect little dress a little less perfect. A grungy jacket along with a cleanly lined dressed creates one of my favorite looks.

I hope everyone’s weekend has been off to a great start. I got to attend a few holidays dinners with my family which was nice. I went a bit overboard with the chocolate. Happily overboard though! Today, I’m off to shoot with one amazing photographer/blogger, Sharon Gong. She’s so young and sooo talented. I’m such a huge fan of her work. Can’t wait to meet his lovely lady!!

Happy Holidays beautiful ones!

School for me ended yesterday and the holidays have arrived! I’ve been clearing out my desk, which has been covered with papers. Almost all of it ended in the trash bin. I love doing a nice clean-up and starting fresh. I look forward to having a lot more time working, traveling, and making music this coming year! Gonna be loads of fun baby!

Even more exciting were all the new clothes that arrived on my doorstep this week! It was such a nice surprise to see these 80%20 creeper ankle boots arrive early from New York! They are made with the most supple leather and have a hidden wedge, giving me a little added height (not exactly needed considering I’m a giant next to most people, but I love their monster stomp). They make any casual street outfit look out of this world. I’m also sporting an ultra-comfortable Volcom jacket, shirt, and tank. I love the cargo look of this jacket and shirt. Very utilitarian, tomboy, and tough. I did keep things a bit feminine with a girlish side braid and a matte plum pout.

I think it’s time to get this off my chest and finally announce that I’m the new Volcom ambassador! Crazy huh? I cannot believe I’ve been given this wonderful opportunity. Volcom is just such an amazing brand with an incredible team. I can’t wait to get working on all the projects. More details later!

Have a beautiful weekend everyone! Trees are golden and the weather has been stunning. I can’t wait to go outside!
