Feeling the Sun

23IMG_2384 1

After a hard day of work and a venti coffee to fuel the day (its Friday so I treat myself to Starbs ;) J and I went thrifting and took some photos for the blog…This really is something we both bond over, he loves photography and I love fashion and putting together a shoot/outfit so we really do make a great team….I am lucky to have such a supportive and creative friend and lover (ok enough ranting about love…haha). I will be doing a post on what I look for when I thrift as per many of your requests soon …hopefully on the weekend so look out for that =)

lately I have also been giving my studded booties a lot more love…they have been super neglected…well….off to go watch a movie….and thanks to L (thanks for emailing me!) I'm going out to buy “"Bringing home the Birkin” book as a fun read ….let me know if you guys have any great books to recommend!

Shirt: AA, Shorts: thrifted, Chain Belt: ??, Tights: Winners, necklace: HM, Sunnies: Ray Ban , Bag: Gap
