Maid of the Mist

On my visit to Lewiston, New York for my boyfriend's family wedding I had to make a visit to the magnificent Niagara Falls for this blog post which was just fifteen minutes from his hometown. The dress I'm wearing is what I made so I thought what a perfect iconic place to be in a cute white dress. I would have also liked cross the border to Canada (which is what you see with the buildings pictured!) but we didn't have enough time. Phooey! There's always next time. You also get a glimpse of the Maid of the Mist which is a boat that brings you up to the front of the waterfall where you get showered by the mist of the falls and view the splendor of it all!  I hope you like my dress and the fun cutouts, criss cross back and LOVELY pockets!

GO KINGS

Hockey season is at it's hight of excitements and what better time to resurface one of my creations . In support of my local team the KINGS who is in huge favor of winning the championship title yet again (even though they lost last night's game) I am having my friend sport the team's vintage inspired jersey. Our location of the shoot was nothing less than appropriate in downtown LA a few streets from where the guys play. Sorry to the Rangers fans for my post but I hope you at least like my design!

Cabo Revisited

I've been on traveling mode lately and it reminded me of one of the best trips this year so far. Cabo! I love that place and hope i'll get to go again. It was great to experience a different environment away from the concrete jungles of Los Angeles. This was the last day on the trip as we got breakfast from the cute little shop run by a San Diego native just following her dream to live in paradise. After picking up the last meal to go, we went back to our hotel Mar de Cortez to grab our bags and joined our driver to take us to the airport. On the way we enjoyed getting background info from the driver on where was the best authentic places to eat as well as super cheap mom and pop's which served same quality plates as all the fancy places overlooking the ocean or marina views. Well I wish we had that detail upon our arrival instead of our departure. Oh well, we loved everything we did and saw there and my knowledge can be used next time we're back! So with that, I hope you enjoy my last outfit featuring this high waisted slit maxi skirt I made!
