A little whimsy to get you through monday...

Currently Infatuated with: River Luna

At the moment I can't stop drooling over River Luna's water color prints {especially the feathers }. They make me incredibly happy! I've already ordered two sets of cards.....

Her details, colors and patterns are so eye catching and absolutely beautiful. But my words can't do her justice so check her etsy shop out and show her some love!

Newest obsession

Dear Friends,

My latest obsession has kept me busy, tearing, shredding, dyeing, painting, studding and sewing vintage levi's and turning them into something bright and new. My work space is strewn with the discarded legs of jeans and my bathtub has taken on a pinkish hue but it all seems to be worth it. Be on the lookout for my etsy shop hopefully coming soon :)

Enjoy

 Monday was a hodge podge of activities... Ali, Emily and I put together a little tea party sans the tea in my front garden; sandwiches lemonade and the cutest cupcakes ever. Then we had some fun trying to capture a shot for Ali's design school portfolio. She needed a magazine cover that had went with the store she created, hence the myriad of outfits I wore on this lovely sunny day..

Hi Hi, I am back from my northern california adventure and kicking off this week with a quick and casual monday shoot with Ali.  Since spring is starting out so beautifully, full of sunshine and light breezes, we were feeling a light and easy going style.  We stayed local...and I mean very local since we did the shoot in my bathroom (which I will say took me forever to paint ).  So anyways, before I start on some random tangent,  Happy April!!

and then we were interrupted...
