Mission: San Miguel

Blouse and Jeans- Forever 21, H&M hat, 1930s vintage beaded purse

Yesterday I went to Mission San Miguel for a little photo shoot. Its about 25 minutes away from where I live, but I haven't really ever been there. I hoping to take my next client out there for a shoot. Something about me that I'm sure, I have mentioned is that I HAVE to travel. Whether its across the room or to another city, I have to keep moving. I find myself taking these spontaneous trips because 

I have traveling in my blood. 

Just the feeling of being in a new place or exploring a familiar one is what I live for.

I've always got great intentions of freedom and adventure in mind.

I'm the girl that needs to find out what's at the very end of path and around the corner of the next street. 

I have to keep moving to see and feel everything I can see and feel.

Fall Favs

Im very exhausted from a full day wedding I shot yesterday in SLO, but I'm headed out this afternoon to finally do another look shoot! It's been pretty busy around here, but I need to get back to mod Fox! But for today I wanted to share some lovely fall items that I wouldn't mind picking up. Still searching for a lovely pussy bow blouse such as this one from Urban Outfitters. Although overpriced, this kimono from Topshop is romantic and perfect for breezy fall days. I'm still lusting after this statement necklace and these sweet velvet pants from Threadsence.   

And lastly, these Forever 21 boots are in one word: Badass. Love, love, love.

Bye Summer

Satchel- Urban outfitters

Hello all. I want to say thank you for your comments and emails! Ive been trying to respond to all of them in a timely manner, but I must say, Ive been a bit distracted. I just started school last Monday and I'm still figuring out my schedule and getting into the swing of things. It's always very disheartening to go back to school. It makes the entire summer feel like it never happened. 

And I've had an INCREDIBLE summer. I drove to BC Canada, spent time with my Canadian best friend, bought my new camera, hung out in LA, Made a new best friend, and just lived life. It was the greatest time. I know a few classes won't change of of that.. but things do feel a bit different. My life has changed drastically in the past week, so i need a bit of time to digest everything. 

On the upside- my contest has been extended until this Thursday the 18th, when I will be announcing the winner of the fab dress below.

The above photos were taken last week or so in SLO during a much needed shopping trip.

I also bought that sweet red satchel as my school bag for this fall. I think it looks like a cute little girl in the 60s would be bouncing around campus with it.

How to dress like Alison Mosshart-

 

 

Alison Mosshart of The Kills and my favorite, The Dead Weather, is a total badass.

She also has that sweet rock grunge look reminiscent of a 60s Mick Jagger.

I wanna look this cool.

P.s- Happy Birthday, Andy

60s Flight

Dress- Lu Lu Lux In SLO, Vintage heels, Dollar tree velvet headband, Vintage bag 

Happy August! I've been doing a lot of shoots and editing lately, thus my lack of posts.This dress looks very early 60s air stewardess. I feel like I"m going to hop on a plane and get off in 1960s New york. That sounds nice. Actually just the thought of hoping on a plane and going anywhere sounds really nice. I miss not knowing where I'm going. Its such a freeing feeling.

Faded Tattoos

 Lace 60s dress, Forever 21 cardigan, H&M box bag, Nordstrom skull scarf

This feather tattoo is in fact, fake. It's henna, but I've grown really attached to it. A Russian lady at the local Mid-state Fair drew it on me. I'm really not crazy about tattoos but I like this one, so I think I would get a feather like this for realsies. 

Tonight I'm heading off to the fair again for the last time with my friend, Pete. 

I think it's been a pretty great summer.

Alicia's 21st/ Missiko Flat iron review

 Last weekend we celebrated my best friend Alicia's 21st birthday! We went to the bars in Slo, the mid-state fair, and on a mini road trip to the coast. It's been so much fun!

Now my review of the Misikko Flat iron!

I received an amazing Hana Professional flat iron from Misikko hair products and  was very excited to try it out. I straighten my bangs everyday and the rest of my hair occasionally (for my more Mod look), so my other iron was kinda on the fritz, so I was ecstatic to have it replaced. I plugged in my Hana iron after drying my hair and using the Hana Shine shield. The ceramic plates and high heat made my hair very straight and it stayed straight all day and night. 

I've gone though many irons and this one is really the best one I've ever used!

This is what my hair looked like after my shower.

 

And now the finished product! Straight, smooth and shiny hair!

This iron actually sealed in my split ends(yes I have some, who doesn't?) and made my hair soft and damage free. I highly recommend this iron and other products from Misikko. 

Professional company, professional product, and professional results!

Thank you Misikko!
