We had a family photoshoot done tonight... here are a few photos that my brother took while the shoot was in place, or how he likes to say he was "taking pictures of taking pictures."

I'm so excited to see the pictures he took! And they'll definitely be up as soon as I get my hands on them..

PROM is tomorrow, I'm picking up my dress early in the morning, gettin' my hair did and then off for shenanigans. SO SO SO excited, and I hope you all have a fantastic weekend.. I know I will. :)

There Must Be Something In the Water

If you've been following for a while now, you know how much I'm O B S E S S E D with Spell Designs.. and anything with a twist of southwestern/native american/beach fashion. It's no surprise that I fell head over heels for Heyoka Leather.

Not exaggerating at all, have a look at the latest photos from Heyoka Leather's Spring 2011 collection.

(it's nothing less than perfection) 

See what I mean?

Ah, adore adore adore.

Kind of bummed that the 80 degree weather only lasted for two days.. but I took advantage and tanned on my roof. Anyone else have a fascination with roofs? Okay, well not really a fascination, but I just love being up there.. I get a better view, a "bigger picture" of the whole thing and it's the perfect place to go clear my head and sort my thoughts. And the breeze is pretty wonderful.. :)

I mentioned Virgin Suicides a couple posts back and decided to pick up my worn copy last night.. Reread the first few chapters and it's crazy how a book can capture your thoughts so perfectly sometimes, yano?  

It's a Doors kind of morning, jamming to Road House Blues as I get ready. Hope everyone has a fantastic day, and if you didn't get an opportunity to look up at the sky last night.. let me reassure you, the stars looked absolutely magnificent.

A Toast to Monday

Good morning, all! 

REMINDER: First giveaway starting sometime this week

Had a beautiful start to my week waking up for a 3 mile Sunrise walk with my mama. I haven't done that walk in quite a while and it's funny (and kind of cool) that as we walk & I talk I'm starting to notice "photographs" in the scenery. As strange as that sounds, my eyes are becoming more trained/inclined to notice what places would be gorgeous for a shot or be absolutely breathtaking if the sun where to hit just right. There's places around my neighborhood that don't look like they belong at all, and I LOVE them. When I get the chance I will definitely be stealing my mom's camera for a bit and scout the area.

And to top off my morning.. Spell Designs added new photos that I couldn't resist posting! Seriously, anything they touch turns to gold, and I'm DYING to get my hands on their designs.

 

 They REALLY need to open a shop in California

more photos on their blog !

Monday's Inspiration consists mainly of cozy things & Native American styles (what else is new? Ha, I just can't get enough)

(photos from cheyennemeetschanel, oraclefox, lightsdrivemysoul & fashionhedonism)

*not sure why some of those images turned out so small.. i switched to Aperture last night, so maybe while they were transferring? bummmmmed

Is it embarrassing to admit that this is SO me?

 I would much rather be doing dissss than going to school right about now.
