Sweater over a dress.

I wore this to video a meeting. Then I got coffee and took photos of myself. How many other fashion bloggers out there have a love hate relationship with their tri-pod? Oh, good. So I'm not the only one. Does anyone have any tips when it comes to focusing the camera? (I don't have a remote so I basically run in front of the camera and run back to set it again.

I would love to hear any tips or anything about tripods and taking self portraits.

Falling Slowly

It's finally feeling like fall in Alabama. The leaves are starting to turn and fall, you can't walk outside without a jacket or long sleeves, and there is a slight breeze. It's nice. It's still too hot to wear tights, or big fur coats, but fur vests?? Yes. 

Last night, before I fell asleep, I had a completely different outfit picked out. But this morning, I wasn't feeling like wearing a sweater and jeans. Planning the next days outfit is always useless to me. I always end up scrapping whatever I picked out and throwing on things that I have never put together before. And then sometimes, I get results like these. (Other times, I regret everything and just want to throw on an oversized sweater.)

Wearing a dress when it's windy is never a good idea. Zachary and I had to take photos of my sister's senior prom day. We snuck off to a local dock and snapped some photos of the sights in the middle of the crazy day. 

She had a great prom, from what I could tell....she was still asleep this morning so I didn't get to talk to her much. 

She went with her best friend, Payne. The two of them made beautiful photos.

See how beautiful they are??? I'm so proud of her.

(awwwww)

Wondering.

Hippy Shirt - Purple Haze $20.00

Jeans - Forever 21 $10.00

Vest - Borrowed from my Aunt.

This is the end result of how I look after a long day working at a coffee shop. Normally I throw on a sweat shirt for fear of spilling coffee on my good clothes, but I couldn't do it today. After work I visited my aunt Yota and we decided to have a little photo shoot for fun. She did a fantastic job. It was quite chilly outside but we braved through it.

After I got home, Zach and I had to go to a local restaurant and take photos for The Young Republicans of Northeast Alabama meeting that my brother hosted. Event photography is a blast. 

Now it's time for homework, coffee, and a movie.

Goodnight :)

Bleachers.

**I apologize to everyone for the lack of posts lately. Especially my mom because she is probably my only reader.**

So...sad news. I ripped the tights. I'm going to have to get another pair ASAP! I loved wearing them. They were cute and edgy. The perfect combo for leather or sweaters. They also went well with my hockey jersey for Saturday night games. Oh well...

Anyways, my ASOS dress came from.....UNCLAIMED BAGAGE(local thrifty place) and was a total of 15 bucks. How awesome is that? My leather jacket??? Forever 21. It cost 5 bucks. Yeah, it was a half off clearance sale that I just happened to be at. Oh, and the tights... STORENVY.com. I think they came from China, they were 10 bucks. So thats $30.00 for the outfit. Yeah. 

Btw guys, hockey is fantastic and I'll be writing a post on it soon. I have one saved in my drafts from like two weeks ago but I've been busy with school and work so I've barely had time to do anything other than sleep and breathe.

I went to a random wedding.

Today I attended Zach's cousins wedding who married one of his good friends. It was so random because I didn't even know about it until last night. So when he said "Do you want to go to a wedding tomorrow?" I automatically started scheming up my outfit.

This little number was perfect. Since it was freezing while we were shooting, I could only manage one photo of the lace on the dress. After that I quickly put my jacket back on. Once we got inside the church it was warm enough to go without it. 

It's been a little over three weeks since I had my breast reduction surgery (I will be writing a post on the surgery very soon), and I am proud to say that this is the first backless or "see through back" dress I have ever been able to wear. I loved it. I felt elegant and sexy for the first time.

My dress and the jacket were both thrift finds. The velvet headband is from American Apparel, but I only paid $1.00 for it with the tags still on it at my all time favorite store, Unclaimed Baggage. The boots were also from Unclaimed. Have I mentioned how much I love that place?

I have had a LOOKBOOK account for almost 3 years now and I've never had an outfit post I've been proud of until now. I'm still not 100% happy with it because our lighting was terrible, but it's a good step up from what I've had in the past. I barely posted looks because I never had a tripod or anyone to take my photo. And when I would get someone to take it for me I felt awkward which as a result, gave me awkward photos. Now that I am a photographer and my boyfriend has also gotten into taking photos with me. We have photographed lots of sessions together, from weddings to babies. So now we can go out and take the kind of photographs I've always wanted to have. I don't feel awkward around him, so it kinda just works. Look forward to seeing more of what is hanging in my closet.
