faux fur and lace

I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss the snow a little bit. Usually by this time of year I'm begging spring to hurry up and get here already, but this serious lack of snow has me feeling just a tiny bit bummed. We got our first decent snowstorm over the weekend, but it's already melted. What gives, winter?

I think I probably miss winter so much because I haven't had the chance to pull out my crazy Chewbacca coat. Remember this guy? I thrifted this last winter and have always been enamored with it, even if it is the most hideous coat in America. I can't resist tacky faux fur. I just can't. I can't remember how much it cost, but it's easily one of my favorite finds to date. I just wish I had more chances to bust it out.

This is actually my headshot for American's Next Top Model. Just kidding. Please don't take that photo seriously. I threw it in as a joke because it's so absurd. Taking outfit photos is so awkward sometimes, and I like to keep it real with some humor every now and again.

Is there any snow in your place of residence yet? Do you miss it like I do? Give me two weeks and I'll be over it.

the old camera bag

I've spent a lot of time trying to find the perfect camera bag. A lot. And mostly to no avail. But last year my BFF and I had a lucky strike of inspiration at the thrift store one day--why pay $200 for a camera bag when you can thrift a vintage bag and make an insert for it? Thus my trusty camera bag was born into a glorious existence of camera bag love.

I've had this bag for awhile now and take it with me everywhere I go. I don't always take all 3 cameras because that's heavy and annoying, but the old Nikon is always with me. Nothing fancy, but she gets the job done.

Looking at the expired film, I'm feeling bummed that my supply is just about gone. When I first got my Diana two years ago my photographer pop donated 4 boxes of super old and expired film to me. It expired in 1994, but it works beautifully and gives all kinds of crazy effects to the film. I'm down to my last box and wishing I could dig up more. Expired film is so much more fun.

Also, let's talk about this Kat Von D lipstick. Let's talk about how I've tried A LOT of red lipstick in the past couple of months and none of them have ever made me this happy to get ready in the morning. If you haven't tried her foiled love lipstick line yet, GET ON IT. That right there is the Adora, and I wear it daily. So fantastic. Completely obsessed.

Thanks for taking a little peek at my silly camera bag on this chilly Monday. How was your weekend? I have to say that I don't know that I've ever been so lazy in my life. Hooray for weekends of sloth.
