Gimme Shelter
As promised, here are a few more of the shots from the little interior shoot I did with my lovely friend Ainsley last week. I loved the shoot’s slightly undone, menswear inspiration with a dash of 60’s Bardot. The experience totally inspired me to get more creative with shoots and to try out different things!
Aside from the journo school grind, I’ve also been crunching out applications for various writing positions or internships once I’ve graduated (can’t believe I’ll be done in just over a month!). There’s a couple that I’m really hoping for. Depending on how things go, I’m on the precipice of a pretty exciting and turbulent point of my life. I really have no idea how things will pan out, but I’m really hoping that whatever happens post-grad, I keep moving in the direction that I want to be headed in.
On an entirely non-career related note, I am so excited for this weekend. For once, I don’t have a huge list of school tasks to tackle, so I have lots of fun things planned. Yay free time!!! You are so hard to find and I cherish you so.
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! x
You look so gorgeous – I love the boyfriend feel of that sweater!

Also…GORGEOUS PHOTOS!!
Seriously, these are sooo pretty. Makes me want to try shooting indoors. Haha, the lighting is beautiful. I'd love to see how you experiment with future shoots!

These pictures turned out so beautifully, pally! Not only is the girl in them stunning, but the location is smashing, too – Ainsley lives in a seriously amazing house. Does she want to lend it out to desperate bloggers who need indoor locations? Because I'd be interested 🙂 So glad to hear that you have a relaxed weekend ahead for once – hopefully this miserable weather lets up so we can all actually enjoy the early spring!

These denim shorts are just divine and worn with white shirt and flats, you look amazing!! Enjoy your weekend!
