spanish rose

the spanish rose shoot.

photographer: brad mawby

makeup artist: bec garozzo

model: aileen

stylist: me

an excerpt from our theme:

"Carmen, the Spanish rose, has settled down in her courtyard for a relaxing sunshiny morning. She has some time to reflect and daydream away the serene morning hours. After hours of romanticized bliss, she decides to go out,

start her day and fulfill those dreams."

this is one of my fave shoots i've styled to date.

it was all my concept, from the styling, makeup

to the location. shot in my courtyard. :)

i luv coming up with concepts.

it was all about the red.

i used to hate red, but now i luv it.

i'm gonna start wearing red more often.

great team involved. thanks y'all!

hope y'all peeps enjoy it!

i dedicate myself

ps- i really am crazy. doncha know.

derby

"derby"

by guerlain

-smoky wood.

 

"Derby is an oddity, the only case of a Guerlain masterpiece gone unnoticed. Guerlain's gush and guff would have us believe that every one of Jean-Paul Guerlain's best fragrances is a paean to the eternel feminin. The truth is he's always been rather better at composing things for his own use, exhibits being Vetiver and Habit Rouge. Derby sits halfway between the confident swagger of HR and the dry restraint of Vetiver, on what might be described as the center of gravity of male fragrance. In structure, it is woody-balsamic with a touch of smoke. In radiance, it is like a kirlian photograph of a healthy leaf, projecting a deep green aura no farther than an inch, but surprisingly intense and durable up close. One of the 10 best masculines of all time."

give me more

sleek and simple.

red, black and white.

i would say that this is calvin klein's

best collection yet. ok, well one of them.

look at it!
the tailoring, the luscious fabric,
the fluid movement of the outfits...
it's just pure genius.

and what's more is that francisco costa
hit the mark with gaining a large target market.

personally, i think that the 20 year olds would
wear this all the way up to the 60 year olds.

i would wear this collection and so would my mom.
all you do is change the outfit with a jacket, jewelry,
heels and accessories to suit your own style.

calvin klein collection spring 2011

i'm SUPER excited to wear outfits similar

to these looks this summer.

my faves: look #1, 3 and 7.

i wanna wear all white.

it's such a luxury to me.

so pure and clean.

lazyas day

i was excited for today.

just because i had a full day off.

and luke and i planned to stay in all

day and watch the hills and harry potter.

he has a bunny named "big bunny."

it doesn't even have a proper name! haha...

he lives outside on the balcony and has lotsa room.

big bunny reminds me of floppy, my bunny i had.

since luke is going to UBC this semester, i decided to

introduce him to some canadian things, like poutine!

so we made poutine: chips, cheese and gravy.

so simple and so epic and so yummy!

note: it's not ketchup, it's tomato sauce.

so yah, we watched 2 episodes of the hills,

the second to last harry potter movie, so

i could catch myself up on what was

happening, and then we went to the

cinema to watch the last and final

harry potter movie in 3D!

and when we got out, it was pouring!

but we still walked the 30 min. walk home

and got soaked and talked heaps bout vancity

and made fun of ourselves stepping in puddles

and getting splashed by cars. ughhh...

it was such a good day. i was happy.

what i like rite now

gold brocade.

sideswept wet hair.

headpiece and losta jewelry.

eveleigh farmers market.

huge chocolate meringue.

rock necklaces.

rock rings.

boho and rocker looks.

oversized bellbottom silk pants.

fancy pattern nylons.

perfectly circular sunglasses.

oyster magazine and wide brimmed hats.

ps- just got home after a late nite. that was fun. haven't gone out in awhile...

me and you and the stars

i've always been in fascination with the stars.

clear night skies, bright stars, the constellations,

the big dipper, the little dipper, orion's belt,

cassiopeia, the north star...

(i only know where those 4 constellations are.

i wanna buy a constellation book so i can find more.)

i luv those nights when i come home late at night

and it's a clear sky and i can see the stars perfectly

and i just stand there in my driveway and stare

and all i can say is thank you God.

do you remember?

i only associate my love for the stars

with a few select friends.

you know who you are...

the stars and nature are very sacred and

special to me, so i've only shared those moments

with the people who mattered the most to me.

thank you for those moments.
