A little {vintage} obsessed

So. I have been *beyond* excited since I found a Groupon for a photo shoot with Photo Element Studio when we travel to Colorado for our anniversary getaway! I immediately emailed them to see if we could be flexible with their offered deal since we were coming up so soon and for such a short time, and Julie was fabulous to talk to -- I'm so excited to meet her + Tait!

I'm especially excited to try for a vintage-inspired shoot! Well, mostly so I can wear my fabulous 60s-esque dress -- nothing flashy, just a simple brown sheath, but I've seen all these fabulous vintage shoots that have been *lovely*! My inspiration? Jackie O, of course -- especially with her hats!

(Credits: via zimibio, Sweet Nothings, Mother's Day Out, finding Dulcinea [AP], The Fashion Guru, Holia 5, Ashley Kane at about, Welt Online, and tons more at Life.)

But then, as we were shopping for the hubs's outfits, we came across some *rockin* 70's attire. And um now I want to throw that in too :D Too much excitement you say? Never!

Here's to hoping you've got fun excitement coming your way!

Dress Details {Vintage Part Trois}

What can I say, except the dress above had me swooning over vintage black dresses. Oh, Timeless Vixen Vintage (and on etsy here) -- le sigh.

The 1950s, Anthropologie-Style

Aren't these the cutest? I popped by Anthropologie and saw the link "Outfits: 50s Proper," and promptly fell in love! Easy ensembles I'd love to own:

And ones that I admire, but am pretty sure I couldn't pull off -- like lime green espadrilles? not likely. And that hat? Love! But also: not likely.

Maybe simple is better

{FuzzyMemories}

So. I seriously need to get on the ball this week. So this week will be a little blogging-lite. Just in case there's anyone else out there who's a little ADD and constantly checks your rss feed/google homepage for blog updates and sees I'm down to (hopefully!) one (or two!) posts a day. Early in the morning. And already set for the week, so I have *zero* excuse to procrastinate at work. (sigh) Here's to a fabulous productive week for everyone!

Gorgeous Pi

{The Wedding Couple, via RocknRollBride}

Freakin' gorgeous, this bride, who---with her groom--engraved Pi on the inside of their rings (and were married on 3/14!!).

But seriously, she's just stunning: love the red/blond, of course the veil, the lashes. Soo incredible.
