motel.

robe: vintage, belt: french connection, earrings: handmade, shoes: miss me

here are some more photos from the shoot i did with my friend marty - we had lots of fun shooting in this old motel close to my house. i love how all of these photos came out because my expressions are much edgier than normal - must have been in a mood that day lol!

anyone have fun plans for the fourth of july? i usually celebrate with family, friends, food, and fireworks. doesn't get much better than that :)

Absolutely Mrs. K said...: i love motels, never been in a motel, but they always look a little bit trashy! but there cannot be a better setting! it is like the room of bad taste! love it. the shoes are a real eye catcher, they are incredible. remind me a little bit of balenciaga. the dress looks perfect on you, i would never wear a dress like that, but i must say that it looks phenomenal on you. so perfect with the belt; July 1, 2011 at 1:16 AM
