Friday Frocks: Garden Party

By Kirsten|March 9th, 2012|Friday Frocks, Why Did You Wear That?|

I don’t care what that little groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, said. It feels like spring outside and I’m ready to throw one heck of a garden party. Should your teacup be full of tea or champagne… it doesn’t really matter. Find your most floral frock and accessorize with the most gigantic hat your pretty little head can hold up and a pair of chunky heels (so as to avoid sinking into the sod). Grab your girlfriends for a day of gabbing and grubbing… just don’t fall down the rabbit hole.

Setting the Mood: Black or White

By Kirsten|August 25th, 2011|Setting the Mood|

I always say that most things in life are incredibly black and white. I don’t really like dancing around in the grey area. In my experience, that leads to nothing but trouble. There’s something so magical about black and white photos. The playing of shadows against the subject. The contrast. Sucking out the colors to nothing but black and white can take your average photo from amateur to amazing. The same can be said about your clothing as well. While some might associate black and white with waiter wear, I think wearing something so simple conveys confidence and understated glamour.

Just a perfect examples of how opposites complement each other.
