editorial edition: garden oasis.

years ago, i left my job in graphic design to help run a family business. advertising and graphics were my first love. i sometimes miss the creative challenge, the photo shoots and layouts, the deadlines.
so, please welcome editorial editions for 2011. a sort of creative outlet for me. you like?

this outfit was literally thrown together. i visited my sister wearing just the dress. she was cleaning her closet and gave me this brand new vest when i got there. score. grabbed my hat and glasses from the car. love outfits like these as they force me to dress outside the box.
fur + sister's lush, multi-tiered yard = photo-op.

    This is such a fun concept! The fur vest was definitely a good snag. Like that you've topped it off with the art. Garden Oasis looks so serene and lovely!
