Mixing Cool & Neutral

By



Once again sorry for the re-posts from my old blog....
Though this is a Elie Tahari Runway Show from Fall 2010,
we are still seeing this 70′s inspired sophistication right now.
This polished rich look will last for a bit longer,
so splurge on a gorgeous fur or faux fur jacket and/or fluffy fur clutch,
buy those gorgeous knee-high suede platform boots
and pair it all with silks and tweeds.
Think of polished texture when picking this look
and don’t be afraid to mix different fabrics together,
it will add to the layering effect that you are going to accomplish.
Add some knee-high socks with your tights and boots for an extra effect on layering.
I love what Elie did here with color combinations.
Mixing different shades of grey, brown, burnt sienna, caramel, and clay
keeps neutral colors cool and edgy without being boring.
Dont be afraid to mix and match!!
Leave comments and let me know what you think.
Dont hesitate to ask questions <3

Value > Appearance | Prioritizing Healing

  Can’t believe this was taken over 4 years ago. At first, I looked at this photo & felt shame wash over me, as I compared it to my current body. Let me be clear…There’s nothing wrong with me currently. But changes can be scary. Aging as a woman and watching my body take shape in a curvier version of what I see here, terrifies me. But it’s also everything I’ve emotionally prepared for too. I get to love the woman I see on this screen, and also love the woman I see standing before me today. I get to understand that an extra 5-15 lbs isn’t lessening my worth.  I get to deeply understand that priorities and goals change with time. It used to be that I spent a lot of time “working” on my body to be perfect, meanwhile I was completely obsessed with weight and massively insecure and would indulge in ED behaviors, punishing myself etc. Physically everyone thought I looked healthy, but mentally my health was shit. My whole existence relied on how I perceived my appearance and my body. I’m

Styling For A Magazine Shoot-My First Experience & Definitely NOT The Last

By
So, I was quite the happy little camper yesterday when I was given the opportunity to style models for a photo shoot to be seen January 1st in The Village Connection (a Huntington, NY magazine). I must say….pretty cool shit. So, now its even more in my heart to do this for a living. And I will. Yes, yes. Moving on… I learned a few key life lessons and career lessons yesterday which I thought of sharing with you. #1: Photographers who have been in the business for 10, 20, 30+ years DONT GIVE A CRAP what you have to say and WILL tell you so if you over-step your boundaries . Well, anyone that knows me shouldnt be surprised that I over-stepped that boundary more times than once yesterday. I dont even blame him…I mean, imagine a photographer who has this girl who literally has never done a magazine shoot in her life, telling the models to push their hair back? Or that a pose should be different to show an outfit better? I MEAN REALLY ALAX WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!? Now, thank God thi

Turning It Over | How I Created Abundance & Fulfillment

Photo & Film By Sarah Elizabeth This time, last year, we were barely weeks into one of the most confusing situations. The world came to a crashing halt, and we were all in pretty much the same boat: holding our breath and waiting. March was extremely anxiety inducing. I couldn’t imagine what was about to happen in my business, let alone financially. I could barely pay my bills, even with a side job, along with whatever side photography work I could get. I was already struggling before this worldwide halt, now what?  In April 2020, I decided for the last time to choose myself even in the unfortunate times we were faced with. My peace and fulfillment over all else, became the most important thing to me when faced with the stripped down version of life that was handed to us. I left my part time job, which was giving me a false sense of financial stability and security, but in reality was just holding me back from DOING the damn thing with my photography business. I remember leaving th
