A Pat on the Back

Outfit deets:
* Urban Planet top (old).
* Sirens pants (the same ones I have in camo).
* Shoemint 'Romy' heels which I recently got (and love, and am making the most out of any sunny and beautiful day to wear them because Winter is around the corner).
* Accessories:  Limite necklace, MK watch, Aldo bangle & Urban Planet 'love' bangle.

I'm stoked to share these pictures with you because (1) I took them myself, and (2) do you know how hard it is to get a blurry background when photographing yourself?!  I kind of can't believe these photos turned out so well and am patting myself on the back a little.  The photography course that I took a few weekends ago is paying off (not that it was expensive to begin with, but worth it for sure).

To de-glamourize these photos, I spent about 35 minutes focusing, adjusting, running back and forth between each, single, self-timed shot.  Lots of frustration but also some victories as proven by these photos (hoorah!).  I kind of wanted to include more but it would have been photo-overload, and I already feel it somewhat is.

Hope everyone is having a great week thus far.  The past two nights I have spent at Place d'Orleans pulling outfits and shoes for the upcoming #MYVIPNIGHT on Saturday!  I'm styling six outfits and all the shoes for the fashion show, which is very exciting.  It's going to be a great event and I'm excited (and a little nervous) to host.  I hope you can make it out, I would love to meet each and every one of you (and get pictures?).  You can find all the details HERE.

  4. you need a remote control for your camera! I just got the nikon d5200 and the remote is awesome. you can set it to shoot 2 seconds after you click which is very helpful for blogging purposes.

  5. Already said so on instagram, but I love this outfit! The whole look is incredible.

    Have fun at the Place D'Orleans event! I was hoping to go but I don't think I can make it because I'm going to Beau's Oktoberfest that day. Too bad. You'll be great!

  6. @Isabel: I just bit the bullet and bought one :P Thanks for the tip, I hope the one I got can set it a couple seconds after I click it so I'm not doing the dreaded 'holding the remote'-post :-/
