There’s something about a redhead.   Am I right?  As much as I love being a blonde, and I admit I was a much more natural blonde in a younger year, I’ve often fantasized about having red hair.

And lately I’ve been considering this print.

I’m pretty sure she could remind us all to keep a fiery spirit.  Available at Kat Hannah’s shop here.

So happy for my friend Lauren Lail. Her vintage wears shop, Library: Archives of Fashion, was just named one of Coastal Living’s Best Online Boutiques!  And rightfully so.  Her shop features looks sourced from vintage shows and shops around the US and beyond.  Wanna see some of my current favorites?

And I’m kicking myself a little that I missed this Gianfranco jacket.
Lauren has a showroom based out of her historic downtown Charleston home (fitting), but luckily she keeps her website up to date for out of town shoppers.  So if you get weak in the knees over rare, storied pieces be sure to check often because she regularly gets in “new” items. 
By a show of hands, ahem comments, who would like to see a Q&A a la Lauren with some tips on vintage shopping??   I bet I can twist her arm ;)

It’s a big day here at LLL.  I’m so so pleased to welcome one of my first sponsors, Jylare Ann Photography.  There’s a good chance that you’ve seen her work before, it’s everywhere!!  Because it’s really good.

How dreamy is that image?  Sort of makes spring and fall weddings seem duller than dull (and I’m a fall kind of girl!).   Oh wait.  Nevermind, these pictures are pretty darn amazing too.

Jylare focuses on lifestyle (you know, engagement, family…) and wedding photography.  She uses natural light to capture those sweet and candid moments that we all wish to save and have forever.  Like these.
And even I would consider getting maternity photos if they look this good.


Newborn photography?  Check.
{Just look at that sweet baby all snuggled up showing off his new room.  So sweet.}
And when it’s time to update that family photo, Jylare’s your girl.
It doesn’t hurt a thing that that family is gorgeous.  But that photo is awesome.  And photographing well on a beach is a real talent.  Seriously.  I know these sort of things ;)
Did I mention that Jylare is an absolute gem?!  Sweet, happy, fun loving girl.  Need proof?  Check her out on the Ellen show last week!
Girl ROCKED that Sorry Spin game and WON. 
Okay so you know that Jylare is a ridiculous photographer, adorable, and fun.  You’re probably wondering where she’s located, Orange County, CA.  But don’t worry, she travels too!  And I’m so stinking excited because we’re heading to San Diego this summer and will be meeting up with her one day to take some family photos.  Yay!
Again, welcome to LLL, Jylare!!  And dear readers, if you’re looking for an awesome and affordable photographer, be sure to check her out!
