Watermelon Taffy

TOP: Forever 21 SHORTS: Lazy Oaf x Nasty Gal
SUNGLASSES: Fred Flare (no longer available - similar) FLATS: Wal-Mart

After a year of blabbing about how much I love and wanted them, I finally decided to just say "yolo" and purchased a pair of the Lazy Oaf x Nasty Gal watermelon shorts…! Truly perfect for the beautiful summer weather we've been having and incorporating the color pink and fruit (two things I love to wear hehe), they are easily one of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe *___*

To ensure the watermelon shorts the main focal point, I kept the rest of my outfit simple and just wore a Forever 21 crop top and plain black flats.

I hope you are all enjoying your spring/summer - I have a couple exciting things slated for this summer and I am soooo excited! Do you have anything fun planned? ♡♡♡

Berta Pfirsich x Hana Haley for Ballad Of... Magazine

Friday, June 13, 2014

Last March, I got a message from photographer Berta Pfirsich asking if I could model Lazy Oaf pieces for Ballad Of… magazine! It sounded like a dream come true, but that month I also found out my grandfather would be having emergency open heart surgery and would be needed at a moments notice. I am forever grateful to Berta for going above and beyond scheduling this shoot around this scary event - and also to the absolutely amazing Hana Haley (who I've had the honor of working with before) for agreeing to do a collaborative shoot with us and driving Berta up to the location!

I met Berta, Hana, and Savannah Jane Bigley at Enchanted Forest - a darling nursery rhyme themed amusement park! Berta is an absolute doll who was even sweeter in person and gave me a big hug the minute we met - she is so incredibly talented and I had such a wonderful time working with her!

It was so much fun prancing around the misty theme park in Lazy Oaf (which you probably already know, I absolutely l o v e) pieces and alongside such talented babes!

Thank you so much again ladies for making this happen ♡ You can see a very amateurish behind the scenes video I shot that day on my Youtube channel here (Youtube fixed the shakiness of the video but in doing so messed up the text I put on top of it - so apologizes for the jumpy text! Trying to figure out how to fix it hah)!

You can order your copy of Ballad Of… Hardcore Happiness here. Mine is on the way and I am impatiently waiting it's arrival...! <3
