What I Wore: Sweater (FF21; old), skirt (Zara;old), Belt (Ruche), pearl necklace (Local seller), Golden Necklace (Stitched and Adorned), Hat (thrifted from the Red Light in Portland), red shoes (Famous Footwear)
These photos are a metaphor. Well, they are photos too (Thank you, Boy for taking them!), but also a metaphor, and though I realize that it is Thursday and maybe its late in the week for deep thoughts when all you're really waiting for is Friday- But.
At the time of shooting them, we were just hoping something came out. The light wasn't working out, everything was a far steeper climb than it had looked from the road and these small, prickly cacti were hidden everywhere. I only got stuck once, but poor Max the Dog could hardly move. At least he learned quickly- he got stuck with a needle in the paw, and then wanted nowhere near the things....which was hard since they were everywhere (his solution was to step literally on our feet whenever possible!) But the results ended up being some of my favorite shots in a while. A very autumn-adventure for September.
I'm going to remember this now that I've Quit My Day Job and am doing the far less regular work of Substitute teaching.
Happy Thursday to you!

these photos are fantastic, glad they were a happy surprise and ended up worth it! And hope your adorable pups didn't get long-term damage from that cacti! haha I know what that can be like first hand after falling into a huge bunch as a child. Anyway, I also adore the colors you wore here and that hat just "tops" it off ; )
