kimono :: diy fashion

i was at goodwill the other day and found this beautiful robe.  i never wear robes, so i started thinking about how i could wear it.  since fringe is so 'in' right now, i had no problem finding some at the fabric store.  i simply cut the robe off at my desired length and then sewed on the fringe.  what do you think?

happy weekend friends.  xoxo

derby hats :: shop news :: fashion photography

hi friends!  do you watch the kentucky derby?  if you are like my dear friend blair, you not only watch it, you plan your outfit weeks in advance (especially the hat)!  this year, i'm even thinking of hosting a little party of my own.  i think the big lawn on the farm will serve as the perfect setting for blankets, hats & mint juleps!

my sweet friend brenda just happens to restore the most gorgeous vintage hats and sells them at urban sassafras.  my trouble will be, like blair, choosing just which one to wear!

apparently i'm rhyming today.  happy weekend!  xoxo

a few of my favorite things :: fashion photography

if i had one of those giant closet rooms with a big comfy bench/chair in the middle, i swear, it would be my favorite room in the house.   i would just sit and admire the patterns and color and textures of fashion. ...what a dream...
