Girl Friends

clothing swap, baby not included.

sorta doing this a lil backwards as ive already shown a swap score (see previous post) and never really showed pics from said event. didn’t really think i had enough footage but as it turns out i couldn’t hold back sharing the few snaps i did take at the BEST CLOTHING SWAP EVERRR!

the hostesses jil & jenny are huge vintage enthusiasts and let go of some really great pieces – some of which jenny so graciously offered into the mix from her Etsy vintage shop Two Tart –

FLASHBACK: The Infamous 5-Hour Brunch

many moons ago…Ashleigh, Kris and I visited Park’s Edge in Inman Park for what we THOUGHT was just a normal Sunday brunch gathering….
but what we didn’t know is that it would turn into the world’s LONGEST BRUNCH EVER!
cue BOTTOMLESS MIMOSAs. 

originally it included a guy friend but we scared him off with lady talk and drunken laughter so it wound up just being us girls who later had an impromptu photoshoot on the walk home:

5hr_4
i love my girl friends!
(and if we ever form a band, photo #2 will be our album cover!)
My Look: vintage dress, tights, shades, and Steve Madden boots.
Kris’ Look: vintage top, necklace, boots and H&M shorts.
Ash’s Look: H&M blazer, UO romper, Clothing Warehouse shades.
it’s nearly the end of the week, which for some it means weekend chill time…not for all of us…
so enjoy your weekend for me-i’ll be working my bum off-though Sunday is nightlife photo taking so that doesn’t really count *wink!*
come see me on Sunday night for Noni’s Christmas party!

dinner and a photoshoot

few weeks back my girlyfriend Tara aka Taradactyl of Sorry, Darlin asked me to shoot some photos of her for the Halloween mixtape meanwhile — we were both invited to a dinner shindig so we put two and two together and made MAGIC! 
Elizabeth hosted at her new apartment & cooked a fantastic vegetarian meal.
proceed to magic:

the EAV STRUT is always a good time if you like art, music, beer, parades and quality time with friends. i will continue to say YES PLEASE to all of the above :)
