Back n NOLA
The good,the bad and the ugly of moving back to New Orleans. Join me on my journey to renovate a 100-yr-old shotgun double uptown, open my own PR firm and start my life (again) in the Big Easy.

NOLA Fashion Week S/S '12 - 10/21 Jolie & Elizabeth
The finale of NOLA Fashion Week's Spring/Summer '12 shows was local favorite, Jolie & Elizabeth. Their runway show was the largest with 34 total looks. With blends of seersucker and cottons, it truly reflected the feminine and flirty look of the traditional Southern girl with a twist. Of course pearls were a must accessory, but their use of floppy, over-sized hats and casual cotton accents updated this classic look.
Unfortunately, the lighting's interaction with my camera made it so that my shots didn't pick up the subtle details and colors in the fabrics, but here are a few shots to get the idea of the silhouettes...perfect for hot, humid Southern summer nights!
Look #17 - Seersucker Carolina on Victoria
Look #25 - Navy Seersucker Jackie on Stephanie
