Outfit: Deco Modiste

So when Kimberlee of Deco Modiste came out with her school thesis line, I had the privilege of being present for (actually, I was in) her thesis fashion show.  Her thesis was full of elegant lines, tailored silhouettes and vintage couture. These pants  will always remind me of walking the runway to an old track that Related posts:

Weekend Work: Photo Shoots and My Thoughts

This weekend was BUS-AY!  After a week and a half of solid, non-stop preparation, I met up with Kimberlee at the Deco Modiste showroom to capture some of our spring and summer looks. I like to look at opportunities like this as a learning experience; this weekend I learned a little bit about professionalism and what Related posts:

Outfit: January Blues

It’s easy to get stuck in a rut in the rainy northwest winters.  It’s too easy to throw on jeans and an oversize sweater to head to work, and it’s work – what kind of fun is that?! My bustin’-out-of-the-blues fix involves a light swingy skirt, and a gorgeous blue tissue tee from Banana Republic. You can Related posts:

Parasol Party Review

This show was the icing on the cake. It wasn’t the cake, because cake is DEFINITELY too plain a food to describe how gorgeous this show was. Kim had spent a busy few weeks preparing dresses, and I’d glued together a bunch of feathers, flowers, ribbons and bows to adorn models with.  We decided to Related posts:

POLYVORE is not the place to look for Vegas-packing-inspiration

aka: What I will put in my suitcase…. I’ve been to Vegas a couple times… but only once to hang out with friends, cruise the strip, play at casinos and get slightly toasty. What I learned, when I was there last, is that nobody cares what you wear (for the most part) but there are Related posts:

So I haven’t taken any photos in 2 days. I know, you’re thinking, “That’s the end of the 365 project“, right? I decided that committing to a photo a day was unrealistic on school days… and pressuring myself to take one every day was a miserable way to achieve. Do you feel like that Related posts:

So for this Thursday, I’m loving: - SFX and fun, fantastic, bright hair color. I think this is a colorful way to brighten my style. I tried to refresh my new red, since I noticed the blond streaks (which were dyed the new red) were starting to look a little copper/orange on the Related posts:

All the news that’s fit to know…

In a bold move, CNN pulled television coverage for Sarah Palin’s high-ranking-official-foreign-policy meetings when the press pool was told there would not be any wire or print reporters allowed. The article from Yahoo news (not the greatest source, but the original bud of information…) states: “CNN, which was providing the television coverage for news Related posts:

Hats, Stockings, Shoes…. and somewhere, Summer winds down….

Stockings feel strange when the view from my desk window hints at sunny, warm temperatures. Inside, where the AC is cranked, small toes in flats and bare legs get cold. This essential layer is often what stands between myself and myself swaddled in the Mr.’s university hoodie – not the most fashionable frock, Related posts:
