Baby, you'd dig it the most!

Vincent: You know what they call a...a...a Quarter Pounder with cheese in Paris?

Jules: They don't call it a Quarter Pounder with cheese?

Vincent: No man, they got the metric system. They wouldn't know what the *&%#  a Quarter Pounder is.

Jules: Then what do they call it?

Vincent: They call it a Royale with Cheese.

Jules: A Royale with cheese. What do they call a Big Mac?

Vincent: Well, a Big Mac's a Big Mac, but they call it Le Big - Mac.

Jules: Le Big-Mac. Ha ha ha ha. What do they call a Whopper?

Vincent: I dunno I didn't go into Burger King.

PULP FICTION

In N Out is iconic in California so much so that they have their own lingo such as,

"I'll have a double double animal style."

or my personal fave

"Grilled cheese with grilled onions"

You can't come to California and not try "In N Out" even if you are not a meat eater, because the fries are awesome and you can always order the "grilled cheese" which is just a burger without the pattie but with all the yummy fixin's.

Nope, it's not on the menu, actually none of the lingo is you have to be an insider or merely a Californian.

Camilla and I chose this spot as a location for one of our Loris Lookbook shoots because of the Californian culture it exudes and the fact it is a only "west coast" burger joint.

It is also good old Americana, served up Cali style and whats better than that for a spring featured style book.

West Coast

"For a second there I thought you disappeared
It rains a lot this time of year"

"And we both go together if one falls down
I talk out loud like you're still around"

"And I miss you
I'm goin back home to the west coast
I wish you woulda put yourself in my suitcase"
Coconut Records

This is more from our lookbook shoot for Loris Shoes.
Inspired by the natural surroundings of our own beautiful beach we grabbed some vintage surfboards we have hanging around the house and headed down.
It was the morning after a huge rainstorm that had been plummeting down on us for days. And after a good storm the next morning is always divine.
All we needed was a vintage Volkswagen Bus and everything would have been perfect.

Camilla is wearing a maxi dress from Loris shoes.
Popped over the maxi is a Crochet hooded top from Free People.
And belted it with a beaded belt from Anthropologie
  Wrapped around Camilla's head is a scarf from Loris Shoes
The platforms are the Jeffery Campbell San Diego from Loris. 
Believe it or not but these platforms are very comfortable and easy to walk in.

It was a beautiful morning with not many people on the beach, mostly surfers. And although you can't tell by the amazing blue sky and sun it was damn cold.
Well, at least by Southern California standards it was.

Lately we have been ending a lot of our posts with a video. So why stop now?
Here's an oldie but a goodie
And the best version of this song to a video I've found also, it was shot by a film student.

Dreaming is Free

Dream dream, even for a little while.

Dream dream, filling up an idle hour.

Fade away, radiate.

 Camilla and I took these pictures a while back and never got around to posting them. Blondie's Dreaming was playing in the background when we took them.  As a little girl, Camilla loved Blondie and we would listen to her so often that I can probably sing every one of Blondie's songs by heart, although you wouldn't want me too.  

I recently came upon these beautiful images and they made me think of the photos we took while listening to Blondie that afternoon back in May.Camilla is wearing a BCBG silk chiffon dress with American Apparel knee hi's and Jeffery Campbell heels.

 Hope you enjoy!

Here's Blondie back in 1979 singing Dreaming in concert.

We also want to thank all our beautiful followers. We love to hear from you, it really makes our day that much more special! We promise to try to get back to all of you that have left us comments very, very soon. A lot of exciting things are happening lately and keeping us so busy that we haven't had time to do any fun shoots.  We came up with a really great idea just the other day that hopefully we can get to in the next week. Until then...

I'm far more comfortable behind the lens instead of in front of it but I just got these cute Jeffery Campbell booties in the mail from ShopBop and We thought we should post them. They have been sold out of LF boutiques in my size for a while so when Shopbop got a reorder of them I was so excited. LF says they are getting a reorder for Christmas so be on the look out if you want them. Actually LF has them with the tacks all over the wedge which is pretty awesome but like I said I couldn't wait so here they are:)
