Autumn Lookbook + Giveaway...

Introducing my second season lookbook for Roots and Feathers.  This one includes a few pieces that are already in the shop along with some ones held back just for this lookbook.  I have styled it to show several different ideas of how to style your Roots and Feathers accessories.  In the first set of images Im wearing my blue velvet dress from Red Velvet, my new favorite garment hanging in my closet.  There are several other new pieces that will be added to the shop throughout the week, but for now, everything included in this lookbook will be in the shop.  I suggest clicking on the button that says EXPAND to view the lookbook larger.  Also, I really wanted to loop this Neil Young song to the lookbook but couldnt, so I encourage you to click play as you view it.







The giveaway is for YOUR CHOICE of one of these rings above.  They are both vintage acrylic marbled cab rings.  To enter leave a comment below telling me which look in the lookbook is your favorite.  Since they are not named, you can just describe it.  And if you want, tell me your favorite new item.  This giveaway will go through the end of the month, and will be announced at the beginning of next month.

The yummiest breakfast shake...

For the past two mornings I have been enjoying the best shake I have made so far, so I thought Id share it with you.  Not only does it taste super yummy & is good for you, but its the prettiest shade of green ever.  I love shakes b/c you can pretty much use whatever you have on hand at the moment.  And sometimes this experimenting leads to wonderful things like this!

<<< ingredients >>>
*I dont measure, so these are just guesses*
1 cup organic orange juice
1/4 cup organic pinnapple coconut juice
1 frozen banana
1/2 cup frozen mangos
handful of dandelion greens
handful of spinach greens
1 tsp ground flax seed
*optional* dash of milk for creaminess

The small glass is my liquid vitamins mixed with orange juice.  The two of these compliment each other quite well.  This little glass has become my staple along with whatever breakfast I have.  This morning, I also had a piece of peanut butter toast, yummy!!!

Lookbook Sneak Peek...

I spent most of the day today working on a new lookbook for Roots and Feathers.  Of course I decided to do it on a day it was sprinkling outside... But when I get my mind on something, sometimes its hard to stop myself.  So in between the raindrops, I snuck outside for minutes at a time to capture some outdoors ones too.  This one is going to have a mix of indoors/outdoors, with varying feels.  I wanted to mix it up a bit from the one before with just one background.  It can be quite difficult trying to be the model & photographer, and takes about 10 times longer than it would if I had some help... but alas, I did it.  I still may do a second session tomorrow.  

I think the best part of this photoshoot was getting to wear my new dress from Red Velvet!!!  Im soooo in love with it, and soooooo glad I splurged.  Ive never owned a dress that fit like this one, and as comfy.  Its stunning!  It feels as if it was made just for me.  And it has given me a new place in my heart for the color blue.  Thank you Elsie and Mallory for being so amazing together! 

PEACE,

Roots and Feathers update...



I added 4 new things in Roots & Feathers today.  As well as a few more throughout the week that I didnt post here.  I also have a ton of new goodies in the works for that shop.  This is going to be a good month for my R+F shop.  Im also working on a new lookbook!  And if you havent signed up yet for my newsletter you might want to... we decided today that James is going to be a part of it too, and we are going to be sharing a few things we love along with our shop announcements and coupons!  It will still be a good few weeks before the first one comes, so a little patience much be endured :)




PEACE,
