little house on the prarie

cracked. yes, cracked. leaned forward, hit the desk and crackety crystal it became. blows.
a little bavarian st pauli's girl meets laura ingalls wilder number. found it in my closet tags still attached. cheapie from h&m. it has a double slip on the bottom and its thick cotton gives you an extra petticoat layer of cushion for the pushin'.....which is why the tags were still attached. but its hot as hell and i wanted something easy and light. we shot a mini lookbook for planet blue at this rad area in malibu.....we had a safari vibe to shoot and there isn't any lush forest vegetation around, so we cheated a little and i got to chill out around this tall grass and insane view of the ocean. made for an awesome location for pics. thank god for zoey and her badass camera. alot of you ask what camera i use for my photos and the majority of the time it's her canon 5d mark 2. makes you look like the best you humanly possible. now i need to rob a bank and get my hands on the couple g's it costs to buy one of my own. or just continue to force z to work her magic. i'm going with option number 2.
dress: h&m, belt: don't remember but this one's super similar, malibu outback photos: zoey grossman

  1. I can't believe that dress is H&M. It's beautiful and looks very well made. I'd pretty much given up on them but maybe the one near me is just too over-picked before i can get over there.

    Anyway love these accessories, too. To me this is very L.A. rock and roll angel.

    Great shoot-kudos to you and Z.

  2. That H&M dress is a dream, glad you rediscovered it. Adore the fringe purse. And can I raid your jewelry collection? Totally coveting those fantastic pieces...

  55. Why get a 5D Mark 2 when you have a OG Mark Z? Save your $2K for Operation Side Boob...and a few cervezas for ZG. Send me an original with salt too?
