What? A fashion post? You say, "We haven't seen one of those in so long!" I say, "No kidding!" 3 months long to be exact. I think I've made it perfectly clear that I do not like the cold. This "polar vortex" (said in my snarkiest voice) has not been my friend; even less of a friend to my fashion posts. I can barely talk myself into getting out in the cold for pictures but my husband? Fagetaboutit! Can't exactly do pictures when you have no one to take them, can you? Well, that's what friends in high places are for! Enter: my bestest photographer friend, Kristy!
Kristy and I have become friends via our daughters. They were in the same dance class together and now they are in the same homeschool group. Needless to say, we have had plenty of opportunity to get acquainted over the years and I have learned that Kristy is an amazing photographer. She has done gorgeous pictures of Izzy in the past and now she has so kindly offered to do some for me. So not only am I back, I'm back new and improved with some fabulous shots!
Are they not amazing?! Have I ever looked this good? And what's even better? She has a photography business! She does newborns, children, families, seniors, engagements, weddings....and kick ass fashion shoots, of course! ;) You can check out her website or her Facebook page for her portfolio and her rates. She has such creative ideas and she is amazing with kids! She had my super-shy baby giggling and smiling in no time. I'm telling you guys, she's awesome! I mean, have I ever looked this good? Let's all say it: "Thaaaank yooou, Kristy!"
So let's talk about the clothes now, shall we? Can't have a fashion post without the fashion! I have been wanting an Aztec print sweater for quite some time now but, as with most things, I was holding out until I could find a good price on one. I've told you before, I am incredibly frugal. This one from Oasap was $20 and that was just about perfect for me. It was the perfect color but the black and navy were enticing as well. If only I could buy all 3! But this can be styled so many ways, I can't wait to have fun with it!
P.S. To let you know how I truly feel about the Polar Vortex, here's my favorite German, Flula, with a pretty accurate account (be prepared to laugh....a lot):
"Spring: I want your flowers and butterflies also"
