velvet and denim

I am completely aware that its scorching hot right now...and that most people wouldn't dare think about wearing velvet. but I am not most people lol. this is one of my favorite tops and I love it because its a body suit, it's velvet (one of the best materials on earth), and the color really pops! Check out the last time I wore it here. Makes me want to get my hair cut again in that style. Anywho I picked this up long ago at American Apparel and its been one of my summer favorites ever since.

BODY SUITS GALORE

I do love a good body suit. Check out this one and this one that I wear on a regular basis. The only thing is when you have to go to the bathroom it can be pretty..well....hectic to get the damn thing off if you really have to go asap! lol. I shot these photos in a cool hidden spot in Riverbank State Park. I've been going there a lot lately to sit by the water and watch the ducks.

Winter Florals

It's desolate outside. the trees are bare but underneath the surface everything's still alive...just waiting for Spring. I too am waiting for Spring. I don't know how many of these brick cold winter days I can take but until the Spring...I can at least wear some florals.
