Dont Let The Sun Go Down On Me


 The last of the pieces we shot from Alpinestars was the the Vegan Leather jacket from ASTARS

This is the piece that Denise gave Camilla. The Fuchsia color is amazingly fun and the look and feel of the faux leather make it hard to believe it's not real.

It has not been the warmest of summers at the beach this year. Lately most days are in the high 60's with fog and marine layer. Just one mile inland its 10 degrees warmer and sunny. When we finally did this shoot it was sunny but only in the mid sixties and the end of the day. We were hoping to get a great sunset but Camilla was getting too cold.

We decided to go up to Palos Verdes point yesterday because although the day was gloomy, it looked like we were going to get a bit of end of the day sun.
We were wrong about the sun but the the view is always amazing and it can give you a total attitude adjustment.

  The location is just the other side of Bluff Cove. In the last picture you can see the trail that leads down to the beach. Surfers trek down the long dirt path to catch waves that break further out than the local beaches. 

Camilla is wearing a vintage 1960's bathing suit in the last pictures, a la Sandra Dee.
Vintage Levis 501's and Jeffrey Campbell Nation Boots in the first set of Photos.
Necklaces are Camilla's favorite Dali Lama and her St Christopher who protects surfers in the ocean.


Also, we received an email from Guide to Art Schools and they put us on a list they compiled of Best Fashion Blogs. We are completely honored to be on a list that consists of Am-Lul's closet, Fashiontoast, Wildfox, and Cherry Blossom Girl
