Fur( faux) Coats Galore!!!

The thrift store is excellent  if you are looking to find unique, stylish & if you are lucky designer brands for a fraction of the price. Some people shy away because of the smell. I throw those bad boys in the washing machine, dry them with some snuggles & they are good to go.

I found these beautiful fur coats at the thrift store the other day. I was ecstatic!! You should have seen me!! I hid a bunch of them for when I get paid wednesday. *shugs*

For you folks who live in Rhode Island, visit the savers in Attleboro MA. There was a whole bunch. HURRY!!!!

 I can't wait to wear these bad boys!!

Photographing my Cousins

In 2008 my cousin bought her first  DSLR camera & I remember complaining about the price. She suggested I buy one of my own & told me it would change my out look on photography forever, I declined because couldn't imagine paying that much for a simple camera. Fast forward to 3 years when I took my first photography class as an elective. I enjoyed the experience so much, I bought a DSLR of my own.

 Since than I have been using every opportunity to further my knowledge. I'm still a novice & there is so much I have to learn, so far it's been one of the most intresting hobbies I have taken up. Manipulating lighting to achieve a desired look has been my favorite  learning experience. 

Here are a few picture I took of my younger cousins... enjoy!!

Have a blessed day everyone..

Red Blazers & Spiked Pumps.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

I vacationed recently in San Juan, Puerto Rico. It was my room mate's birthday weekend and thought, hey why not?
I hadn't been on vacation in such a long time & needed the rest. We stayed at an arty loft in Old San Juan & I tell you, it was AHHHMAZZINGG!!! We left the 40 degrees weather of Rhode Island to frolic under 90 degrees weather of Puerto Rico. Couldn't have been a better timing!!
