faces – rachel – sam remix – seattle
i love running in to friendly faces. i had met rachel previously at a backstage pass event.
use of color – alicia betty – pioneer square
alicia betty was a sweetie to let us (and all the other people) accost her on the street. when we stopped to ask her for a photo, i think some people thought she was famous (and also wanted photos), to which she responded- don’t you know who i am? i’m alicia betty!
use of color – kristina – pioneer square
i couldn’t pick which photo… i wanted to get a better detail of her scarf.

dominating presence – SAM Remix – seattle
 |
| From needle+thread |
running into old friends, especially when they come in costume, is a conversation starter. a few people asked me who the 7 foot blond was… she’s a famous yodeling dominatrix, of course.
an autumn day at discovery – sheena – discovery park – magnolia
sometimes when people tell you that you have to get a permit, you should just ignore them. it goes against my sensibilities to ignore little old ladies, but that being said, sometimes they’re just on an age power trip. and it definitely irks me to listen someone in an OFFICE tell me what i can do OUTDOORS, but i did grit my teeth, and fill out the paperwork. and after all that… bureaucracy… what do i have to show for it? nothing. well, the filled out paperwork, and some emails, but certainly no permit to take pictures. so i just decided to take my camera AND my friend and go take all the pictures i wanted. and we couldn’t have had a better day. a beautiful fall day in discovery park. we ran (ok, sheena did most of the running), we laughed like maniacs… and we saw about 10 other people taking pictures. so if any of you want to turn me in, i have evidence that i wasn’t the only one. there are so many beautiful places in seattle, who could resist… enjoy.

ladylike chic – SAM Remix – seattle

love the gold handbag (vintage?) and big chunky earring. also love the combo of the high wasted longer skirt with the lace legging. she put her own twist on the look and it looks just right.
merrill – creative director – downtown seattle

| From needle+thread |
i saw merrill while i was walking around before the snow patrol concert. i was drawn to about 5 different things she was wearing, and as we parted i wished i’d asked her about half of them. the necklace… the tights, the shoes… i did recognize her orla kiely shopper. orla’s retro palette makes me happy- it pairs with vintage nicely.

as a guy, i don’t know how i’d feel about walking down the runway in the ‘lady sophisticate’ grouping, but i suppose as a sophisticated lady, i’d want my guy to be on par with my ’sophistication’. i think by far (gowns excluded) these were my favourite looks, and that feather skirt is just for sheena. see all the lady sophisticate looks in the album.
vogue – front row fashion – topcoats

one of the things i loved about all the shows, the use of hosiery. i am a tight/sock addict. i think seeing how they’ve put some of these looks together is inspiring- that floral lace look (texture) and color were predominant… want to see the rest of the topcoats? visit the front row topcoat album.
