Dress: Urban Outfitters | Rucksack: Kate Sheridan | Sandals: Target
PC: Mike! :)
The day that these were taken, I had pretty much spent all day lounging around at my brother/sister-in-law's place because I had been so tired from the day before (which included taking a SoulCycle class with Elhaam, walking around Beverly Hills with Elhaam/my brother, walking around Santa Monica with Elhaam, and going on a jog with my sister-in-law). My brother actually suggested that we go on a photoshoot after he was done with work that day, and he suggested some shooting locations (this was the first of two locations, so stay tuned hehe!).
Our first stop was LACMA for its famous "Urban Light" installation by Chris Burden. Walking around these lamp posts at night felt pretty magical, as it's such a beautiful art installation! We experimented with different settings on my camera as I'm still trying to learn how to use my camera at night...haha :P My brother helped with some creative direction (and reminders to not be a derp), and these shots were my favorites! A couple pictures were not taken by the lights, as on our way out we noticed another area at LACMA that had interesting spotlight-like lighting. It almost made it seem like a film set or something, haha.
Darn that this came out blurry!
Outfitters (although I wish the material was less prone to wrinkles). I wore my trusty Target sandals again, and was also excited to use this outfit as a chance to wear my Kate Sheridan rucksack. I first saw this rucksack when I went to London Fashion Weekend, and it was love at first sight. I didn't buy it that weekend, but later during my stay in London I saw that Kate Sheridan was having a sale, and I contacted her to see if I could by the rucksack in person instead of having to pay it to be shipped to California. So I actually went to her studio in London with my friend, Maren, to pick up this rucksack, which was pretty awesome. I just love how unique the rucksack is, and how it makes me think of some fond London memories! Sadly I don't use it as much as I should, possibly because I love it so much and don't want to ruin it. But hopefully that'll change and I'll wear it more often as it deserves to be showcased a bit more! :)
Ooh and also in this post is a photo of possibly the prettiest manicure I've ever gotten! Two days before this shoot, I went with Teryn to Olive & June in Beverly Hills to get our nails done (it was a treat ourselves day I suppose, hahah!). This was the first manicure I have gotten in years since I prefer to just paint my nails myself (I have quite a nail polish stash as I used to be a serious collector), so I tried to find a nail design that I probably wouldn't attempt myself and that would be worth a paid manicure for. I ended up finding the design on my ring fingers on Pinterest, and the woman who painted my nails suggested a glitter accent nail. I was super happy with my manicure and couldn't stop looking at my nails during my trip, hehe!
