Sunday Spirit: Change is good

Sun is hard to come by these days. We've had snowy, foggy and windy weather with temperatures around 0C lately, which means it's wet and cold. This winter has really got the better of me. I've been so tired lately, it feels like I'm running on fumes. I can't wait for spring and beautiful sunny days. Or even sunny winter days like the one on the pictures we took a couple of weeks ago.

I feel it's time for a change, not only in the seasons, but also here on the blog. So, there are some big changes coming soon. But, all these plans are still in their early stages, so I can't spill the beans yet. I can only say that it will be a good change. Exciting times are ahead!

I hope you'll have a good start to a new week!

Snow White in the Park

A girl with hair as dark as ebony and lips as red as blood. A very quiet afternoon in the park on a cold and foggy winter's day. Perfect for a photoshoot, wouldn't you say? I love how these pictures turned out, but they did remind me that I desperately need a better lens for my camera. I just can't keep shooting with the kit lens anymore.

I did this shoot with Ann, my gorgeous friend. The dress is a thrift find. It's several numbers too big for me, and Ann for that matter, but I just loved it so that I had to have it. I haven't had the heart to cut into it and make it into something I could wear. Maybe one day...

I'm really looking forward to planning another photoshoot day with my girls. I love creating these stories, picking out outfits and seeing what new angles I can find during the shoot. I have a lot to learn, but practice does make you...well, better.

My Style: Time for florals

Although spring is still at least a month away, I find myself yearning for spring clothing - brighter colors, light layers, silky fabrics and light coats. Although I'm still stuck in my winter coat and boots, I'm doing my best to add a hint of spring into my daily outfits to remind myself that spring is not that far away.
