Sooo..better late than never, right guys? Swept away by the craziness of life, I completely forgot to post my S/S Lookbook! Of course, now I'm already working on my fall collection as well as planning my fall photoshoot :)

This was my first "real" lookbook project and I'm so proud/happy/giddy about the way it turned out. I got to work with some amazing people on it, and can't wait to do another!

Also, be on the lookout for a huge sale this weekend on my spring collection on Etsy!

Happy Monday Loves!

Leather & Litas

Outfit Details
Lace Top- Guess
Leather Skirt- Vintage
Booties- JC Litas
Bicycle Necklace- Fringe & Lace -This is my good friend Aubree's traveling boutique!


So if you're wondering, yes, yes I did take this skirt off directly after taking these photos. With temperatures nearing 100 everyday for at least the past week, I've pretty much been either living indoors or in shorts and little dresses. I've been dreaming of putting this outfit together, though, since I got my Litas back in May and found this amazing leather skirt at Goodwill!

I plan on wearing it out one night or to a show when it cools down!

I've spent the last few days sewing like a crazy person (procrastination to blame) to have a mini summer collection of sorts ready for Local Honey's summer shopping event on Saturday. I can't wait to show you what I've created this time: seersucker and marbled fabric bloomers, reconstructed vintage onesies, and several new sailor tops!



And I realized that you all have not seen my orange hair. I've been kind of having a Hair-ADD year if you can't tell. (Green to red, to dark red, to orange...) Next I'm thinking pink! :)

The Stars Get Me

This was my horoscope today:

You should in no way feel guilty for spending money to look your best. When you feel good about your image, you'll make a lasting impression. Clothing and accessories are an investment in your future!

As if I needed any more encouragement...

Love, Simone S/S Lookbook: Behind the Scenes!

So while I am still narrowing down the shots I would like to use in my S/S lookbook, I wanted to share with you all some of the behind the scenes shots from the day of the photoshoot. These are all at my house, which we used to stage multiple scenes (including my living room and parents' fireplace, and the entryway!).

A Lunch Date

Outfit Details-
Blouse- Wal-mart
Sailor Shorts- Betsey Johnson
Flats- Coach
Headband- handmade




A few weeks ago I went out to lunch and thrifting in East Nashville with the lovely Carmen of Closet Case Vintage!
It was a perfect Friday afternoon full of my favorite things- Mexican food, vintage shoes, and sunshine!

PS Please notice how awkward I am in front of someone else's camera! :)

PPS I just received the edited photos from my Lookbook shoot and will be posting them by the weekend!

Love Simone Spring/Summer Lookbook Sneak Peak!

On Friday I did my first real shoot for Love Simone with the darling local photographer Kristin Sweeting! We had so much playing dress up and staging an outdoor tea party with hanging teacups, doily lanterns, and mason jars filled with roses! I think we created the most beautiful wonderland and was sad to have to take it all down once it got dark. I can't wait to show you all the completed lookbook in a few weeks. After that I will be listing the entire collection on Etsy!
