Primary Covers

Shirt, J.Crew. Skirt & belt, Banana Republic. Sunglasses, Winners. Tote, Chapters. Flip-flops, Hollister.

On my way to the beach today, I practiced the art of posing in motion, which ended up being more like an extreme sport. Fortunately, I learned a few things.  Rule #1: Keep your ADHD to a minimum, unless you're trying to get blurred images. Rule #2: Exhibit lean and lovely angles at all times - you never know who will have the nerve to look through your unedited photos after you've placed your camera on a restaurant table (Does anyone else think this is rude? When friends and coworkers do it without asking?). Rule #3: Don't take photography advice from an oft-offended, etiquette-obsessed blogger. She's too busy making sure people don't double dip or shake her hand after picking their noses. It's hard work, but someone's gotta do it.

So I see that while I went off and got married, you were looking amazing as usual. Such a chic look for the beach and I love your hair & sunglasses!

Thanks again for guest posting. xo

YES, also going through my phone when it's left on my desk at work back when I worked with rude idiots who would go through the address book/recent history. People are abominable. You're just cute, though.

Ew, double dipping is gross. And YES, it's rude to just take someone's camera and start going through their photos! You don't know what they're taking pictures of! Ugh. People.

SO RUDE. I can't stand when people grab my phone and start going through my pictures--for the most part I just have a couple friends who do it and we're close enough that it's all right, but jeez. At least pretend you're asking first. I wish my phone was equipped with a taser that went off if it recognized that anyone other than me was touching it. Harsh, but gets the job gone.

You look great though, aaaaaaaand I want your bag. It's awesome.
