Fall Back

So, it's been quite some time since I posted on this blog. Studies got the better of me and I guess posting fell by the wayside. I know not many people read this blog (if any at all) but a couple weeks ago I went to take pictures with my friend Ali. Normally I take pictures of him, but I was the model this time. It was fun being on the other side of the camera and hearing him direct me: "Make more angles with your body. Do something crazy! Go stand over there". I wasn't super successful but it was still fun nonetheless. A good break from the slough of work that is sophomore year as a science major/premed track person.

A few pictures from our session-

Oh, and Luke came along for a bit too.

details

Last week I went to the NAAAP gala, at which my friend Erin received a scholarship. Before the event, though, I got the chance to go through her wardrobe and pick out an item. I've always admired this cardi on Erin, and I was so excited to borrow it that I tried it in a few different outfits. It was a rather gloomy day today, but I still had a fun photoshoot with myself.

The asymmetrical shape and details on this cardigan make it really fun to mix and match with, so I tried not only wearing it with my usual cardi-blouse-jeans formula, but also with different prints, tucked in to skirts, etc. I'm also really into tights and high-heeled oxfords at the moment.

P.S. fall is my absolutely favorite time of the year. Despite the rain we usually get here, we've had a lot of sunny days recently, highlighting the fiery leaves falling off the trees.

we fall

school has been a crazy whirlwind lately. i wish i was further on college apps and doing better as far as grades go but i'm trying to enjoy high school while i can. i'm almost done with one application and i'm working on the supplements for another today, so slowly but surely i'll get them done.

yesterday the afternoon was absolutely gorgeous so i went outside to take a few pictures. breathing in the sunlight was amazing. for the first time in a while i felt invigorated.



my hair looks very brown in this picture...
