Wonderstruck

 Our first stop of the day happened to be the side of the road! ;) 
 Wonderstruck everyday. 
 After my first time surfing with these two brunettes!
 I didn't get the Ray-Bans memo.
 Together with our fabulous photographer/filmographer/bestfriend Jess! 
Can you tell we were facing the sun and I was going blind?
 A quick lunch in between shoots = don't judge me!  
 At our last location of the day!
 We were shooting for the Fall ONO catalog!
 Another amazing autumn sunset in Florida.
 Thanks for stopping by and coming with me on my adventure yesterday I tried to get as many pictures as possible but we stayed so busy the whole time!
ONO is a surf and apparel shop located in Seaside Fl. on Gorgeous 30A.(where we shot most of these pictures)   
The lovely girls in the pictures are Jess, Isabella, and Brenna.

To Grandmother's House We Go.

 My Grandma, mom(bottom left) and aunt(bottom right) posing for their passport picture.
 Gizmo.
 Filled with memories.
 A satsuma right off of the tree for breakfast!  
 Grandma's "neigh"bors.

 In socks and sandals showing us her plant collection in true Asian style.




 Her vintage coat she modeled for me before we left for lunch.

Best Korean food in Crestview Fl. and a tradition for our family's girl's only days! 


The banchan or side dishes were SO good! Kimchi ^





 I've said it once and I will say it always, spending time with family makes any day the best day!
I spent the this Saturday with my mom, aunt and grandma gorging on Korean food and telling happy and sad stories of things that are normal to us but might not be so normal to many others.
Like bathing in springs and stealing pinches of other people's plants to sprout( My grandma has a green thumb) and how grandma didn't learn to cook in Korea because her mother passed away when she was young and at that time there wasn't much food to cook in the first place.
We chatted with the owner Ms.Song and her son-in-law and just enjoyed ourselves so much!
I hope you enjoyed another day in the life blog!
I try to do these when I don't really have time to stop and take pictures of outfits, because as much as I love fashion I really love capturing moments of the things I love the most, like my family and this beautiful world we are blessed to live in.
Happy sunday from my family to you and yours.

Salon Del Mar

 The bare bones of the salon!
 Moving in the salon equipment is a job for two strong young men!
 Taran cheesing for the camera in front of all of the heavy boxes and crates!
 Aunt Tara painting a picture of what is to come.
 Today I manned the front desk of the salon and took pictures every chance I could to show you guys the lovely transformation!!!



 The shelves that hold the product as well as the large prints, you will later see, create a sense of privacy for the guests while leaving the space open and uncluttered. 
 Did I mention the product is AMAZING???
It was first introduced in 1965 Brigitte Bardot was one of the first ones to use these products!
Still not sold?
PHYTO products are highly concentrated in pure plant extracts!
AND it smells heavenly!
And just so you know I'm speaking from experience after actually using it!
I'm not sponsored by them, although I wouldn't turn down that opportunity if it arose. ;)   


 There you have it!
I hope you enjoyed seeing this beautiful new salon as much as I enjoyed being there today!
Salon Del Mar is located on 30A in the Beautiful sunshine state that is Florida!
Aunt Tara has been a hairdresser since before I was born and take it from someone with VERY unruly hair, she knows her craft!
Living in Manhattan and working at some of the top salons in the country she has picked up a thing or two.
At the moment she is working by appointments only and she will have a business Facebook page for the salon coming soon!
When that happens I will post it to this blog post!

Sky On Fire

 This was from our Sunday family walk but somehow was misplaced so I'm adding it now!
Dad shelling a pecan as we walk.






My mother's hands are so precious to me.






 Mom and I went for a walk and what we saw, was a sky on fire.
