Ulyana Sergeenko












Russian socialite and favorite subject of street fashion photographers, Ulyana Sergeenko recently turned designer and debuted a collection which perfectly mirrored her own personal style. Retro without being boring her designs are full of sharp bustlines, full skirts and perfectly accented with headscarves, wicker hats, and heavy eyeliner. As lovely as her collection is, I'm enjoying these backstage photographs even more.

Seasoned With Folly


About a week ago Emily of The Daily Fashionista hosted a holiday blogger party at her apartment. It was a very enjoyable evening with rootbeer float cocktails, yummy bites, a white elephant gift exchange, and the general merriment and conversation of a holiday party. I took my Instax mini and snapped away for a little while before re-focusing on socialization; it's so hard to document and participate in the moment. Anyway it was an incredibly fun night and I'm hoping there are more to come in the future!

Hibernate With Me


These detachable, silk collars by Cleo Ferin Mecury are so adorable. I even like the little "hibernate with me" slogan printed inside each one. There are three little critter options: a hedeghog, badger, and artic fox.

One Foot On The Shore

I often watch the sun set since that is the hour I most like to take pictures and some are more spectacular than others--this particular day down by the James river was exceedingly pretty. The water isn't always so glassy, the clouds don't always capture the light and color so, but sometimes it is just magical. I wish the water was warmer and more keen for swimming, because wouldn't it be wonderful to swim in a ocean of color like that one sunset? To dive into a pool of pinks and purples, hm?
