Moto Inspired…

 I’m a sucker for anything “moto” inspired!  Leather jackets, jeans, boots, and don’t even get me started on coated and leather pants!  However, I like to balance it out with something a little feminine, so people aren’t’ looking around for my Harley 🙂  Enter a flowing layered polka dot tank, and the perfect pair of black skinnies…

These are the 2nd pair of DL1961 jeans I go to try, and of course I love them.  If there is one thing every woman should have in their closet, it’s a perfect fitting black skinny jean.  You can read more about why I love this brand so much here.Blog Zara button back sweater DL1961 Emma Denver Fiorentini Baker 7040 Boots-1Blog Zara button back sweater DL1961 Emma Denver Fiorentini Baker 7040 Boots-1-When Zara had these sweaters on sale, I scooped them up in just about every color hahaha.  I LOVE the button up back-or unbuttoned in this case 🙂 Blog Zara button back sweater DL1961 Emma Denver Fiorentini Baker 7040 Boots-2Blog Zara Button Back Sweater Audrey 3 pluse One DL1961 Emma Denver-5 Blog Zara button back sweater DL1961 Emma Denver Fiorentini Baker 7040 Boots-3LOVE this next one!!!  I really never know what I’m getting with the self timer and tripod, but this…this is so us, and I am SO glad I got it!!

Keeping it Real…
I made a promise to myself when I started this blog that I wouldn’t Photoshop myself, as tempting as it might be.  WELL….I’ve broken that rule a few times.  A) When the gray hair/roots are OUT OF CONTROL (yeah, I spare you that!)  B) when I take pics in the morning or after maybe a night with not much sleep-I might diminish the bags under BOTH Maya and my eyes, although usually I just shoot from far away ha! 😉  C) If Maya gets mud on me or herself, I clean that up.  That was DEFINITELY the case on this shoot!!
So there’s the “not so real” keeping it real 😉

And…we’re both wearing booties :)

Ok, so the 3rd day in a row that our shoes kind of match.  But again…love both of ours, so oh well 🙂

Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-1 Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-2I love this vest from Stylemint (another black Friday score :}).  It’s cozy, has fringe, and…is black.  What more could I want?  I just wasn’t sure if I should let it hang loose…belt it? Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-3So, first I belted it… Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-4 Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-5Then loose… Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-6 Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-7Belted?  Not?  Truth be told, I kind of like it belted, but ended up wearing it loose for the rest of the day because I had a shoot, and I thought it would be more comfortable 🙂

This?  No question.  ADORABLE! 🙂Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-8 Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-9 Blog Stylemint Vest DL1961 Emma Born Booties-10On me…

Cowboy Boots and….wings?

 Maya is usually pretty good about letting me dress her (SO hope that lasts a while longer!!), but every once and a while she is adamant about wearing something.  Usually, it’s a pair of boots, but today….it was wings 🙂
