I asked you NICELY

I’m in love with the shift from winter slumber to hectic springtime. You start seeing familiar faces on the streets again, you can show some skin to the sun without hypothermia, I start buying flowers again and even consider sitting outside for a coffee rather than curling up in the corner of the room with a book or my laptop’s eery glow..

After having to put buying clothes for the shop on the back-burner to allow funds for… rent and bills and a few unexpected un-pleasants, we’re FINALLY pretty much out of that hole and can start putting it all together again! I’ve (slowly) been shooting the clothes for the first round of sales and its been challenging to go back behind the lens and in front of it at the same time..

how the hell do you shoot a sheer shirt?? Its hard.

Yesterday I met the team behind BlackSwan Theory who have a shop on Etsy, I got to hang out with some lovely girls, after getting my hair done and putting on some pretty rad lace flares and a crochet dress, we ran around a golf course getting yelled at by “Daddy McDoucheBag” who “asked us nicely” to leave the “dangerous” field.

I wish I had photos of all that..

Cheers!

Cold coffee, warm corners

It is freezing in this corner of the café. Brandon is laughing behind his hands at what I am guessing to be Lemmy footage.. (Were going to see the documentary on wednesday night at the Alamo.) The waitress has a patch of long whiskers under her chin that I can’t stop staring at, and once again, girl from Machete is a few tables away. I have not touched the glass of water that I ordered to follow my cup of (crack)coffee.

 

Yesterday I received my favorite kind of parcel, the type that comes in brown paper with foreign stamps and when I opened it, there they were, a perfect collection of pearly ostrich feathers! I’ve got a few more supplies coming in this week and then I’ll have NO EXCUSE to finish this project.

Speaking of jewelry, Stone & Honey have a cute and interesting collaboration with Satsuma Press to offer their Earth+Sky piece.. I like this idea a lot!

Looks like I’ll be spending a lot more time at MOHAWK, seeing as the Strange Boys are playing there on saturday and I want to photograph the show, and my favorite vintage boutique in Austin is participating in Fashion Freakout (feb 4th)

 

I’m also a privileged little princess and get to wear Black Swan Theory’s amazing collection for their next shoot on thursday

You can explore their Etsy Boutique right here.

I have nothing else to say, so with that, kisses and love.
