Rainy Day Women

December 6, 2016

But I would not feel so all alone…

A full day off in Vienna…something about the on and off downpours made this city even sexier. The cobblestone walkways, towering gothic churches, cafes and pubs every five yards. There were plenty of places to sip on a little prosecco while we waited out the storms. And being forced to stumble upon an adorable Mozart Cafe for espresso and wine while we cozied up under their outdoor blankets definitely wasn’t the worst thing in the world. The only thing we missed out on was the horse and buggy ride. But I suppose I’ll have to come back for that.Continue reading…

Burnin’ Sky

November 29, 2016

The sky is burnin’ I believe my soul’s on fire.

The best moments are always the unplanned ones. From lounging over a glass of wine in pj’s to running out to the middle of the desert with nothing but boots and a shawl to catch the last 15 minutes of light, Ashley and I created one of my favorite desert shoots featuring Pachamama Bohemian. Something about letting things happen organically and not giving time constraints or even expections to a situation makes the process so beautifully raw and natural. A few bottles of wine, a couple smoke bombs and the Las Vegas desert was more than enough inspriation for making magic at dusk.Continue reading…

Canstatter Volksfest

November 19, 2016

Prost, Beerfest!

Our first stop after our 11-show residency at the Arena di Verona was Stuttgart, Germany. Absolute perfect timing that we walked into a city hosting a beer fest that has become more popular than Oktoberfest! The booziest of all boozey lunch days started after just after 2 pm and went until we overstayed our welcome on the kiddie rides. Archery, cookies, haunted houses, makeshift lederhosen, authentic German hankies and plenty of pilsner was reason enough to skip through the entrance of Volksfest like obnoxious American tourists. After purchasing a cheap pair of German suspenders and an adorable printed hanky that is probably more flight attendant than sexy beer fest girl, Ashley and I set to work on drinking as many liters as we could handle while still taking bloggy photos. Wearing L’Artigiano di Riccione and White Crow Brand, I couldn’t have organized a better non-lederhosen beer fest ensemble.Continue reading…

Secret Garden

October 30, 2016

“If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.”

Tucked away in the fairly industrial city of Stuttgart, Germany exists probably the most beautiful botanical gardens I have every seen. Lush greens, exotic temples and dahlias of every color. It literally felt like walking into our very own secret garden. I can imagine the weddings, even couture fashion shoots that have been shot here. With walls of pure green, it couldn’t be a better place to be a redhead.Continue reading…

Dames in Deutschland

October 22, 2016

Guten Morgen Stuttgart.

Our very first venture into Germany started with a boozy brunch and a photo shoot outside the government building in Stuttgart. Nothing quite says tourist like laying on the cobblestone just outside of the main entrance of a capital city’s government offices. Of all the places to be kicked out of a photo shoot location I was pretty convinced this would be the one. I’d like to give a special thanks to any officials in the building for letting us get weird on the doorsteps of your capital building. I hope you agree it made for a killer backdrop for this retro faux suede Shop Tobi dress. Keeping it minimal with monotone boots that look like they could have been cut from the same fabric, the inaugural international Boho Bunnie shoot was completed. Next stop, Beer Fest…Continue reading…

Queen of Hearts

October 14, 2016

I left my heart in Vienna.

I’m just in awe of this magical city that is filled with so much love, music and history. I grew up playing classical music and this is the epicenter where it all began so I naturally have a special connection to this part of the world. And being the first international Boho Bunnie shoot, it was fitting to have a location be so close to my roots. Our day in Austria was no different than a day of photo shoots in any other part of the world: boozy lunch, coffee, shoot photos, beer break, more photos, a few glasses of prosecco, shop for props, just one more cocktail, and end the day of shooting at magic hour at our favorite location. The Belevedere Castle was the lucky location that was chosen to end our last day of shooting in Europe. Almost like it was waiting for us, we had the castle grounds to ourselves to play and roll around in the gravel. With nothing but an embroidered slip dress from Shop Tobi and bouquet of dahlias we picked up at a corner flower market, I made the Belvedere Castle my home through the final moments daylight.Continue reading…

Ladies of the Canyon

My current location as I write this post is a small vegan cafe in Innsbrook, Austria with a high temperature outside of 55 degrees. This is probably the first change of seasons I’ll experience in over nine years since living in LA. But in honor of the Indian summer happening in the city of Angels, I figured there’s room to squeeze in a few more warm weather blog posts. There’s nothing like cozying up in a little abode in the hills of Laurel Canyon. Wood paneled walls, full collection of vinyl and royal blue velvet sofa you can just sink your entire weight into. Completely fit for relaxation and inspiration. Repurposed vintage clothing by LDV Vintage couldn’t be more suited for a day of lounging and vaping.Continue reading…

Pappy and Harriets

September 24, 2016

Desert gypsy

I had heard of this magical music venue in the desert for years before I was able to experience it for the first time just recently. Driving in from LA just in time to fit in a few shoots before dark, Pappy and Harriet’s in Pioneertown was the first stop of the trip. LA traffic of course always adds hours to any trip but once you hit the dirt roads and the dark desert highways of Joshua Tree, it’s all worth it. I must say the desert is truly the place where I feel most at ease and connected to the universe. The stars, the cool, dry evenings and the expansive horizon is what I would love to experience every night. Desert wanderings call for gypsy threads and these sheer black pieces from Gypsy Junkies are welcome to join me in the desert any time.Continue reading…

Flores Lane

September 17, 2016

Hand poured from the heart of Los Angeles.

I have a complete soft spot for candles. When I’m working from home there’s not a day that goes by that I don’t have one of my favorite scents burning. I go back and forth between pretty, clean florals and warm spicy scents. When I’m gearing to go, I’ll opt for a light and bright fragrance and when I’m in for the night burning the midnight oil and working on all sorts of music and blog projects, I love a warm, earthy scent. Flores Lane covers the spectrum with every gorgeous home fragrance you could ever dream of. And very cleverly named with areas of Los Angeles and New York City. Given my current location in Italy, I’m anxiously waiting for a line of European scents!Continue reading…
