"milkmakers lactation cookies provide your body with the calories it needs to make milk. milkmakers cookies have a combination of oats, brewer's yeast and flax seed that help with milk production, making it easier to pump when you’re away from your baby and breastfeed when you’re together."
Most of these shots are from Bri's new sweet video about her scarves. See it here.
Potsch and I spent our weekend in gorgeous Palm Springs shooting our first ever engagement shoot. The weather though hot was perfect and made for one of the most stunning sunsets Saturday night. The couple, who are less than 100 days from their wedding day, could not be more in love. this made my job a whole lot of easy.
I can't wait to share the images with you!
I am a big fan of people posting about their real fashion. One of my favorites comes from DearBaby. Melissa took a shot of herself in the work bathroom mirror everyday to show off her absolutely adorable maternity style. Now, I'm not pregnant, yet, but I do love seeing big baby bellies with style. I also have developed a creepy shopping habit cause of Kendi Everyday. She looks so stylish all the time that I can't help but follow her links and try to get the same style. Happily I am sticking to my personal style and just turning it up a bit in the effort area rather than completely losing me and becoming them. I also noticed that I smile more when I am out and about and see someone in a crazy get up. Fashion is such a brilliant place to express yourself. I get excited when people do.
Potsch and I have had a few bickering discussion as I have handed him my camera to document my outfit only to be left standing awkwardly in the middle of people while he tries to invent a camera angle no one has seen before. He is getting quicker and i am learning to be more loving of my awkwardness but I am tired of waiting. I like process. I so much more into the evolution of ideas to things than just things. So, here we go. My week in the elevator. Everyday I show up to work on the lot (I am back on New Girl for FOX as we got a pick up!) I have to ride the elevator up one floor. It's the only place with a full length mirror. I am going to shoot my outfit and on Friday I will share a new week in the elevator. Who knows maybe this will evolve into a stylish baby bump fashion show as well someday?
TOMS of the one for one shoes has now ventured into eye wear. Classic designs with a little surprising color pop. And the same deal applies. When you buy yourself a pair you are also giving sight, be it surgery or medication or therapy, to someone in need. How rad is that? I may be getting myself the Classic 101 blue tips or classic blue tips in Tortoise. Check out all the colors online.
Mundvoll is a corner store complete with café in Germany and I am going there. I wish. The interior design was done by newly-formed design studio Joint Perspective based in London. I love the energetic casualness of the colors and seating area. Mundvoll's hope is to give a push back for the Mom and Pop establishments. I say YES!
Potsch and I are finally on our way home from our 18 day honeymoon trip through Thailand. Honestly, I'm not ready to come back. I was sure that by day 17 I would jumping for joy to be returning but strangely I am not. I am thrilled to see my sweet kitties again though. That is for sure. But potsch and I had such a brilliant time traveling. Sure, there were a few moments that weren't so brilliant like the time I was sure that our AirCon minivan driver had kidnapped us and picked up his family to help him murder us or the time I was so tired and worn down that I, like a complete fool (please note I was very good about my money until this one time), left my money in the easiest pocket on my backpack that was mistakenly tossed onto a moving ship going the opposite direction. Luckily the ship was coming back 6hrs later which gave the crew plenty of time to open up the easy pocket and steal ALL my money, about $300, and my iPhone. Those times were not the brilliant ones. But I tell you them now so I can wow you with all the other greatness from our trip. And really a few buck and an old phone ain't a big price to pay for story.
I give you this shot of us on our most honeymoon moment. The most classic early relationship shot that marks us, khali and potsch, as the old couple in the matching jump suits.
I am feeling the itch and though I am still covered in mosquito bites from traveling Thailand (more on that soon) that is not the itch I speak of. It could be because my little brother who is not so little anymore and is actually a total man adult just got a complete sleeve. For those not in the tattoo lingo world that means he has covered one of his arms in tattoos. Crazy business. His girlfriend also just finished her back piece which is gorgeous and covers her entire back. Nuts-o! These are not the tats I speak of for my self. I am more of a random sticker look myself. When I think of tattoos on my body I want to be the embodiment of an 8th graders binder. Just covered in random scrawling. Some has memory and some you're like " what is that? Why is that on there? I don't remember doing that." yes, my goals are high in life. I know. So what next? I have a few ideas but nothing jumping at me just yet. I am a sucker for a good typeface. And getting tattooed feels so great. You are nervous to make the decision then you make it. It hurts but fills you with excitement. Then you spend a day (this may only be for the slightly older crowd - me) feeling like "what the fuck did I just do? This is forever!" and then you love it. As long as you thought about it. So, I am thinking about it.
Summer is here which means it is time to stock up on coals and lighter fluid. No room for a BBQ? Hate that when it is not summer you have to have a small island taking up space in your yard? Fear no more. Grow some herbs to throw on your salmon or something more sustainable and get to grillin' with this rad Hot Pot BBQ from black+blum. I sure do love good useful design.
