in between two pines

i wore this outfit to work on monday - kind of blah, but i happened to snap a shot of it, it's nothing too special.  these pants i rediscovered from the back of the pants/jeans drawer (which is overflowing might i add) - i kind of lost my liking for them a while back - not sure why.  i think they made my butt look big - KIDDING, omg.

the blouse is borrowed from my friend olga - or 'swapped' rather.  sidenote: swapping clothes with friends of similar sizes.  try it! your husbands/boyfriends will love you.

we spent some time with friends at a cabin in tahoe this last weekend.  i powered through some dry parts of crime and punishment, but am extremely involved in this book at the moment.  so much so i had to lend my 'french women don't get fat' to my friend christine because quite frankly, no matter how much you think you juggle two books at one time - you CANT.  there.  well, that's the case for me anyway.  how did i get through college?  bah!

about this sweater - i bought it for myself at a thrift store in miami - and guess who it fits better?

i love the shots our wide angle lens takes.  this one in fact reminds me of a snow-ey version of some of 'massimo vitali's work - my friend liska pointed him out in one of her posts a while back (i had to go way back on your blog, liskers) - ever since then, high contrast and high aperture wide-angle shots like this remind me of him.  but i'm no photographer (and not very critique-savvy either - so if it's nothing like his work in your 'pinion, sorry).

we built lolita the snow-lady - only to break her after her photo shoot.

that's a shot of wes and i - getting ready for a picture.  i'm just wearing my snowboarding gear.  there's really very little you can do to stay fashion-forward while playing in the snow - snowboarding gear is the most snow-proof apparel, but visually, it's like a culture of its own.  the prints and patterns are rarely to my liking (usually some form of neon-plaid-camo-concoction).  however - when i'm rolling around in snow, i don't think i care that much, haha.

this is us lounging around.  we intended to watch a movie, but ended up watching 'in between two ferns' on our phones.  oh zack g. how you master the art of awkward and inappropriate.

that is that.  in other news - i'm reaching out to the folks for whom i did make-up and hair work to compile a fun little portfolio.  i suck at documenting.  it's like there's work out there that i did that i never put my signature on - so much harder to reclaim after the fact.  geez.

and olya and i recommitted our focus to our shops today.  we're fist-pumping excited.  go tuesdays.

tata!

  4. The funniest part is me strutting in there like I own the place to make up for it. "I'm walking so confidently, of course I'm not sneaking anything in guys". Haha.
