I Wish Wednesday

i wish that everyday was as GORGEOUS as Sunday was…my roomie and i packed a yummy picnic complete with mimosas and headed to the historic Oakland Cemetery via her adorable convertible VW Beetle to embrace our long lost friend Mr. Sunshine.

we both took several cameras to snap photos of all the pretty pretty headstones and scenery. you may think a cemetery is not the ideal location to seek relaxation on a sunday afternoon but you’d be wrong, there were TONS of folks walking around-some also taking photos, riding bikes, mediating..and just enjoying the sights.

Sloppy Seconds

this weekend was great but i wanted to back-track and share last weekend’s adventures.. Ashleigh and i went to MJQ and discovered there was a party going on called “Sloppy Seconds” and after entering realized it was thePlace2B!!! several djs, performers, and a fantastic photographer who snapped some of my favorite photos yet..

the Diana F+

i’ve been wanting to share these photos from the 1st roll of film from my Diana F+ for some time now, guess they were accidently forgotten. didn’t get as many exposures as i imagined but was pleased with what result i did get.

what i loved about all these photos and the camera itself is that it’s completely unpredictable. i did the same thing each time but got so many different results, which is fun to me. can’t wait to develop my current role as well as my 35mm Holga…a couple more to go…than i’ll have more goodies to share! AND last week i won some exp 1989 Polaroid 600 plus film as well as (2 packs of) exp 2007 Polaroid 600.

hello ladies,
i want to start with saying THANK YOU so much for all your comments and support of Hippie Frou Frou…your sweet words have brought many smiles to my face in hard times…been pretty bad with updates lately and was afraid you all would forget about me :(( but things have been wicked crazy in my life right now…never really gone into too many personal issues on the blog, so i’ll keep them to myself but wanted to let you all know i’ll be back in full force soon enough. for now, thought i’d share these ultra lovely scans from Italian Vogue 2009 (don’t know which month…) but aren’t they GREAT!?!? those hand-stitched shoes are sooo cool, i could totally see a couple of you doing a DIY project based on the idea :))
