I recently had the opportunity to work on a photoshoot with a good friend of mine for her website. It's always fun to work with friends and support each other in our endeavors. I selected a couple outfits that I felt would work well with her photography style, help tell a story, and that would be a great fit for her site.

The floral pattern of this Free ... Read more...

Kendra Scott Showroom Visit

While there isn't a Kendra Scott store in the Bay Area yet, you can find her pieces at Nordstrom. Getting to visit her by appointment only showroom in New York City, it was like being a kid in a candy store except wayyy better. I got to preview her Spring/Summer collection which launches April 15th and a super sneak peek of a handful of select Fall/Winter pieces that ... Read more...
