WARNING! Major photo-heavy post ahead!

I recently had the incredible opportunity to team up with my girls Alicia and Cee to shoot a Valentine’s Day English garden-themed tea party for Glitter Guide with the lovely Ainsley Rose Photography – with amazing sponsors like BASH + FETE, The Flower Factory, Cake by Annie, Olive + Piper, Joe Fresh, Left on Houston, Cecil Green and Kahlia Adams, what started as just a vision for us was taken to a whole other level. I could not be more ecstatic with how this shoot turned out and just felt like I had to give you guys as many unreleased shots as possible because well…they’re all equally amazing.

Stay tuned for more details about this rose-adorned updo (just in time for Valentine’s Day) and in the meantime, enjoy more details on…

We really wanted to aim for cozy-yet-glam so layering this Joe Fresh sweater over top of my most dream-worthy dress (you might remember this Free People dress from New Year’s!) totally fit the bill.

So much fun collaborating with Cee and Alicia, particularly since the shoot was entirely focused on love for your girlfriends (and these two are a couple of my favourite local blogettes).

This shoot was truly all in the details! Thanks to Jenn from BASH + FETE, our whole shoot was styled amazingly, from the most perfect vintage-inspired dining area to our tea pot-as-vases.
Finally, a big thank you to everyone involved and to Glitter Guide for the feature! See more snaps from the day here!

    Luckily, no issue how low the industry slumps, it does recovery. Actually, property company always follows a rent-buy-rent-buy group.
