Life Is Beautiful

Oh yes life is quite beautiful, and it is Friday so it makes it all the more lovely.
Always in need of more inspiration and Art.
We were introduced to this artist by my son and Camilla's brother Emmett.
Her name is Erika Iris Simmons and is based out of Atlanta.
She finds inspiration in random things then makes a portrait of the person associated with the item.
Our Favorite is Bob Marley and the other musicians she has done with cassette tapes.
you can find more about her at IRIS.

We have been having the most amazing winter sunsets at the beach.
We will be sharing with you soon:)

We are also excited to tell you that Camilla is featured on StyleCaster
It's a photo from the shoot we did with the Beautiful Collection from QUAIL.
Happy, Happy!
XX Valerie and Camilla

OH and WE
Hope you enjoy the weekend!
