Country & Western
Both kinds of music
Boots, hats and some LFDW outlaw merch. On a day-to-day basis you’ll always see me in a pair of cowboy boots. But I just couldn’t resist some suede over-the-knees with an oversize sweatshirt. Live Forever Die Whenever makes some super rad ‘outlaw shit’ AND they’re based out Cincinnati, Ohio, home of my alma mater. From studying classical viola at University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, I would have never imagined having a career as a fiddle and pedal steel player. I didn’t even listen to country music, let alone western music back then. Crazy how it all evolves…
Yee-haw, bunnies!

Time Traveling
Vintage is better in black & white
I would say close to half of my wardrobe is vintage. There are lots of local Los Angeles vintage shops I have frequented over the years, including my go-to venders at the flea markets. But nothing is more exciting than finding some retro gems while traveling. Every city has their own distinct style and it’s fun to sift through their time capsules of the past. During a three year world tour I did performing in 55 countries, my routine for days off would be to find the best vegan or vegetarian friendly restaurants (South America was nearly impossible for that task), hit the guitar shops, record shops and local vintage and thrift shops. This dress in particular I found in a German town on the French border at a thrift shop for 6 Euro. It’s one of those pieces that has been hanging in my closet waiting for the right moment, or maybe a slight alteration. The moment was musing for this tin type shoot.
Happy thrifting, bunnies!

Clare Bare x Boho Bunnie
There is one lingerie brand that I could absolutely live in, and that would be Clare Bare. Clare finds the cutest vintage fabrics and with her magic makes them into the sexiest, most comfortable, limited edition works of art. I’m slowly building my collection and am striving for a complete overhaul of my skivvies into Clare Bare originals. It wouldn’t be a Clare Bare shoot without the third member of the team, the incredible Angela Izzo. Our little getaway to the Madonna Inn gave us endless inspiration for these looks. True fantasyland!
Stay beautiful and inspired, bunnies!
