Today's Look: is festival chic, inspired by one of my style icons Vanessa Hudgens, and fun for the hot summer days approaching. To get this look, I started with the tribal jacquard cage-back crop top in black, beige, and taupe and denim cut-offs. I just had to add a floral headband, cut-out ankle boots, and a crocheted vest. Adding the perfect finishing touches, I accessorized with infinity earrings, a studded leather bracelet and belt, and tarnished metal rings. To get an idea of what bloggers go through, I have a story for you, my loyal readers. For this shoot in particular, I knew I wanted lush green trees, mother earth vibes, and of course, beautiful lighting. My photographer and I set out searching for a great spot. We had to hike through a field, down a steep slope, and through (not past but through) numerous shrubs to get to this location--I saw the logs from the highway and thought it would be an awesome setting. Although the area looked stunning in the pictures, during the photo shoot I felt like I was under attack; I had to ward off ants, bees, rodents (at least I think I heard a few scurry away in the bushes), and scratchy branches. Luckily, we survived the wilderness and got some great pictures which made it worth the work. When I got a chance to look at the photos that night, there was a spot on the back of my top in one of the photos. I zoomed in and it was a ginormous bee just hanging out, chilling on my back! I'm very allergic to bees and very thankful I wasn't aware of its presence and that it didn't sting me. Goodness...the things we bloggers go through for that perfect shot. Anyway, that's my dramatic story. haha Hope you're all having a wonderful week. Xoxo, Shelly
