Bohemian Bunnie

Bohemian-chic art, music, fashion, design and vegan lifestyle.

River + Sky

Sustainable California Clothing

River + Sky is an artisan-crafted fashion line designed with sustainability in mind. It’s for those with music in their veins and nature in their hearts, who prefer the road less traveled and appreciate all things handmade. This small-batch brand of plant-based, hand-dyed clothing is just as lux as it is comfortable. Listening to old records while shooting in the most perfect bohemian bungalow with Angela Izzo was exactly how I envisioned this collaboration with River + Sky.

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!

Vegas Baby

Fear and Loathing at The English Hotel

While there was no mesaclin or sheets of high power blotter acid (just your typical lychee martini) I felt like I was channeling my best Raoul Duke in the lobby of Las Vegas’s English Hotel. Ashley Myers and I set out for our typical adventure day of cocktailing and photographing. Ashley had been wanting to check out this new hotel, and when we arrived the owner generously welcomed us to shoot and even offered us a tour of the rooms. The plush orange velvet couldn’t be a more perfect backdrop for my $7 vintage sequin cocktail dress which no one has wanted to alter (apparently sequins kill sewing machines so a few safety pins did the trick for this shoot) and my newly acquired vintage yellow cowboy hat from Wellema Hat Co. Inspired by my current musician crush, Laura Leezy, I went full power clash with these colors.

Bunnie imitating Bunnie!

Make a wish

For the three short days we were at the Madonna Inn, I felt like we made it our home. With each room so uniquely decorated we had three completely different fantasy worlds to play in. We had the late night bar all to ourselves, and even got a private ghost tour of the grounds. You can feel the magic as soon as you walk onto the property. Right away Angela and I started shooting in our own personal spiral staircase cupola in the center of our room. Our dear friend Clare Bare handmade the most beautiful lingerie and kimono that inspired these beautiful film shots.

Magical wishes, bunnies!

Western Swing

Giddy Up

I’ve always had a fascination with pin up culture (I was Bettie Page for Halloween no less than five years in a row) and of course anything rock n roll western, so merging the two in the studio with Marc Alt was a photoshoot dream. The inspiration for it all came from this epic repurposed gun holster designed and hand crafted by Chris West. Who needs a purse when you have a gun holster as an option? Paired with some of my very favorites from Planet Cowboy, Clare Bare, Shannon Noelke Metal Arts, Boho Lizzy & Manam.

Swing it, bunnies!

Dreaming in Blue

Chiffon dreams

I always keep an extra outfit in the car when I’m visiting my dear friend Angela Izzo. There’s nothing like a casual Wednesday in Los Angeles, running errands all over the city, stopping for a glass of wine mid way through and musing for an impromptu photo shoot. This dreamy Hippie Shake body suit has yet to make it’s debut on stage because I haven’t found the right bottoms yet, but who needs pants, right? Dreamy shoots are Angela Izzo’s specialty and if you’re in the Los Angeles area you must check out her immersive photography workshop, GAZE, this Saturday, May 7th 2022.

Sweet hippie dreams, bunnies!
