And the Beat Goes On: Regina Spektor & (500) Days of Summer

>> Friday, October 30, 2009

In honor of my Halloween costume, I thought it would fitting to post my favorite Regina Spektor song from the (500) Days of Summer soundtrack and some photos of my inspiration.

Happy Friday!! I wish you all a very scary weekend!

P.S. Thanks so much for all the sweet and supportive comments about my Etsy shop!! You guys are the best!

You all know how much I love wearing hair bows, but you may not realize how much I love making them! I have had a portrait Etsy shop for some time now, but I have decided to limit my portraits only to dogs and now include hair bows, too.

My first hair bow collection, Highland Holiday, is designed for the coming winter season. Featuring festive fabrics of velvet, tweed and tartan- I think they're quite perfect for the holidays.

I have tried to price them favorably with low shipping costs, but I would love to know what you think.

As you have hopefully guessed by now, Cole and I are dressed as Tom and Summer from (500) Days of Summer for Halloween! I thought it would be fun to make an outfit post out of it and have Cole do some modeling.

It ended up being quite a hilarious experience since we couldn't stop laughing. Whenever we were trying to capture ourselves together, I kept saying "look at me like you love me and I'll look like a bitch!" Ha, I'm not sure if it worked.

Along Came a Train

>> Monday, October 26, 2009

Cole and I wanted to take pictures at some train tracks nearby. When we first started shooting, along came a train. You can see by one of the pictures that the conductor scared the bejesus out of me when he blared the horn!
