Cats and Crystals

Hello Lovelies!

I hope you're having a great start to your week! These photos are from a shoot I did last week with my friend Carl. Our friend Stephen let us use his studio space since it's been getting dark so early lately and we have hectic work schedules. I'm fortunate to know a lot of sweet and creative people who are willing to offer their space/time for me.

One of the best parts about this shoot was the delicious warm tea Stephen made us and the presence of his cat in the studio. I mean just look at this cat...he totally knows how to work it in front of the camera.

What I love most about the pieces I'm wearing is how well the details tie in together. The embellished collar, scalloped cardigan, and paisley pants give this look a fun vibe. I feel fancy and whimsical in this outfit but also put together. I'll never forget the first time I met my best friend (she lives in NYC now, but will be home in 19 days!) and I was wearing a big tee with a rabbit on it and floral leggings with blue boots. She said I looked like I was dressed as a "five year old" or like I was from Alice in Wonderland. I actually take that as a compliment now....I enjoy having a cute and playful style every once in awhile.

You should check out the rest of Carl's fashion photography here! 
I hope you're all having a great Monday!
