June Gloom


A few blocks of abandoned streets in downtown L.A....  I realize serve for me ample traipsing space for great lighting, backdrops and peace and quiet to play with shooting styles.  
Well, eerie quiet but peace and space nonetheless.  

Who would've thought Skid Row would be a photo shoot playground?


Channeling the cool of Macklemore, and the comfort of Eileen Fischer. I was completely cozy and warm in this oversize cocoon sweater, which I wear with everything, my favorite slouchy, long sleeve double knit and my mini cutoff skirt.  C'est parfait, non?  Please excuse me, but when I feel this comfy and effortlessly cool, I can't help but speak French :)


Wearing such soft layers up top, raises my tolerance level considerably for wearing sky high heels that were slightly less than comfortable, 
which, for this outfit, heels were really quite necessary I feel.

Now that I've embraced the "June Gloom" (an L.A. native clued me in on the consistent gloomy weather that sets in during only the month of June), I'm settling on breaking out my jackets and sweaters again... and pairing them with skimpier, Summer items.  Yay!  A Tiny Closet specialty.

My L.A. Summer Uniform

Why have I never thought of this ensemble before??  I've had this maxi dress (which for this post, has been made into a skirt) for nearly two years, the tank is a basic staple, my wedges I've worn countless times and the belt is a fave.  And it took me this long to come up with such a simple, cool, amazingly comfy look?  

Eh, I guess I thought it up at the perfect time.  It's quite an L.A. look anyway :)

tank: Jockey / belt: Forever 21 / skirt: All Saints / wedges: Trouve / sunnies: RayBan

I've been enjoying the downtown peace for the Memorial holiday today.  Since Theo will be shooting til the afternoon, I plan to wear this ensemble to go out in afterward.  To Venice Beach, a downtown bar, the movies, or I dunno, I gotta wear it somewhere, it's simply perfect for me!   An absolutely effortless outfit.



So, I've been mentally planning for tomorrow for about a decade.  I can't believe it's already here.  I'll tell ya all about it later but for now, I'm enjoying the moments leading up.  Everyone is out of the city, celebrating the holiday, no tourists, no traffic, I'm going to continue sketching and sewing and I'll be back tomorrow to share, share, share!  

...And show yet another new outfit put together from a very Tiny Closet :)
