film noir

Hi guys!

I hope you had a fun Halloween (if you celebrate that). I was really bad this year, and came up with a few ideas of what to dress up as, but had no concrete ideas until the very last minute. I ended up dressing up as Cleopatra. I threw on a white lace dress, some gold accessories, and just focused on the face. 

If you would like to know how that came out, click here.

Today's post isn't Halloween related, but it is dark, so I thought it would be great to share at this time. Every time Melissa and I get together, really creative things happen. This time, we did something with film noir feels. These shots look like they're straight from a glamorous crime drama.

I love this dress because it's so simple and elegant. I always top it off with a fun necklace.

What do you think of this?

Hey guys!

If you live in the US, you probably know that Primark launched its store in Boston a couple of weeks ago. It was all over Twitter and Instagram. I even read some tweets from across the pond, saying how jealous they were of our beautiful, four-story-tall store. And I agree, I would be a little jealous if I didn't live in Boston too! We're so lucky to have the first Primark in the US!

I did a few shopping trips to Primark. During one of those trips, I got the awesome popcorn bag and  set of rings that I'm wearing on these pictures. The popcorn bag was more like love at first sight. When I saw it, I knew I had to have it!

The bag was only $9, and the rings were $4.50 (I'm only wearing 3 rings out of the 8 that came in the set). Yep, you can do a lot with just a little cash!

Melissa and felt very inspired by the popcorn bag while doing this shoot! What do you think of it? Do you like it as much as we do?
