Wednesday Blues

Loving these things today...Enjoy.  It's raining and pouring. I've got the blues.

Monday Morning Inspiration

Some pretty pictures for your personal perusal.  Today's word: INVIGORATE.  Make it happen, do it.  It's a brand new week.

Be smart (or at least look the part), carry a great bag, and take in a bit of sun.  That's all it takes.

A little of this and that

Some new old finds for this loverly Sunday evening...

Sarah= Make it Work

Sarah models clothes for me often.  She has a great pixie haircut, is tiny enough to fit the oldest vintage, and is always up for anything! We have lots of fun when we get together.  I always pick out more then enough things for Sarah to wear for our shoot, and then let her choose the outfits she likes best from those.  It really is a collaboration.  Yesterday, we decided to go with some black leggings and slouchy 80's ankle boots as the base for all the outfits.  I did Sarah's makeup in sparkly silver, we had our coffee and talked about the family and then got to work.  We took some shots of appliqued 1980s's sweaters, a couple of 1950's dresses, and then one or two from the 1960's and 1970's.  The model really makes the difference in the clothes.  Sarah always styles herself, deciding where the belt should lay, whether or not to wear a hat, etc.  I like that.

Photo Shoot with Kim and Sabrina

Kim and her "assistant" (and my friend) Sabrina were just fabulous! Amidst copious amounts of Stoli Raspberry and tonic, lime wedges, and mini chocolate cupcakes some magic was made! Kim arrived with a fabulous updo courtesy of her stylish hairstylist friend.  We tried lots of dresses on and listened to loud music and the vibe just flowed! Kim was a great model and muse for some great vintage 80's clothes.  An orchid in her hair, black opaque tights and heels completed the look.  Sabrina was a dutiful (and hilarious!) assistant- helping Kim touch up her makeup, keeping the music going, hanging and arranging clothes and accessories, and just generally providing funny and over the top commentary and hilarity.

Kim busted out her Jackee impression when she donned this number:

FIERCE!
