Baby, let's go back in time






So a couple of months ago I hinted out on my Instagram that I was working on a 1920's themed photo shoot. It took a while to finally get it on here but here it is! I hope you all enjoyed!

The idea came to me a while ago when I thrifted this flapper dress (for $4!). It was in great condition but I had no idea when or where I would wear it. I asked my boyfriend Daniel L. if he could photograph me in a 20's themed shoot and he then said (to my surprise) he wanted to join and dress up also! He thrifted his whole outfit and I made his bow tie. His grand mustache (yes, it's real!) just topped off the whole look don't you agree? I know I'm not one to share much of my personal love life on here but I thought these pictures would be the perfect way to introduce you, my lovely followers, to him. He did a great job at photographing and directing the shoot but I'm not going to lie, during the shoot we were both so awkward in front of a camera that the only natural thing to come out of us was to dance!

Here in NYC we are going through a crazy heat wave so it's been a struggle to look cute and still remain cool.  So I put together a laid back and easy look for you guys featuring one of my favorite scarves from Collection 18! I love how long and light weight this scarf is because it makes it easy to tie around your head and the colors and pattern look great also!
