day trip: poulsbo

 We took the Edmond's Ferry and drove to Poulsbo for the day.

It was a pretty out.

..

.

 Found a frame from Sons of Norway's 'Rummage Sale' $6

Also found an old Mickey shirt for .50 !

.

.

Poulsbo is an old Scandinavian town just west of Seattle out towards Liberty Bay.  It's very cute.  Fun little hokey, but entertaining shops, a small village full of colorful, bright homes.

.

It's bakery has been around for well over 100 years.

la femme

From the collection Fortnight Lingerie based out of Canada.  Beautiful pieces.

.

I've been into this lingerie, boudoir feel more and more everyday.  Who knows, maybe because I know I'm not getting any younger, so I should show off my curves while I still can, right?  okay, gym tomorrow morning 5am.  

Fortnight.  It's so femme, so lady, so elegant and sexy.  girly yet matured.  classic.

Oh, Jolene, keep an eye out for some more of these images here on cp.

.

Also, I've been in the middle of updating/re-doing my portfolio at jplana-anderson.com, so please check back later for more updates.

 There is this sort of elegancy behind this image that makes me like it so damn much.  A collection called L'Eclipse by Genevieve Eliard-  constructed beautifully.

Sensuality.  Detail.

.

I was reading this photo article the other day from this photographer and remembered this quote, "Details work best when no matter what the subject is, its something you really care about.  If you aren't showing the details, you're really not into it.  The details are in the heart"

So true.

good night.

Stella McCartney Resort 13

 Labor Day weekend?  How was yours?  Mine consisted of relaxation- time to self.  My brain slowed down, which felt SO. incredibly. Nice.  Sometimes with work- it's non-stop.  It's nice to take time to remember your body, take care of yourself!  I went running.  Visited my baby nephew.  Did projects around the house.  Went to the market.  Went to the Rose Garden.  Hung out with girlfriends. Went shopping.  It Felt Good.  I went and sat down and actually got my make-up done by this fun little blonde gal, her name was Kasey and she freelances for Sunday Riley at Barney's downtown Seattle.  That's something which I haven't done in years!  Actually, walk into Barney's and check out their new shit.  Woah?  Last time I got to do that- well.  I can't quite remember.  And, yeez.  It felt so nice.  Sunday Riley's tinted primer is what amazed me, it makes my skin glowww.  Did I purchase it?  Hell no!  But I wore it and by the time I got home a couple hrs. later- my skin was rockin- too bad I had to wipe it all off.  I got home late and anyway, I couldn't go out anywhere, I wouldn't have woken up for work this morning! 

Last month when Stella McCartney showed her Resort 13' collection, 

all her models wore Sunday Riley.

Yesterday was the 43rd day without measurable rain in Seattle.  The record is 51 days in 1951!  It's supposed to hit 90 degrees this Saturday! Looks like it's going to make a great Anniversary weekend.  Woot Woot!

hola again.  happy end of august almost september/where the fuck has the time gone.

 Been working a lot.  A LOT.  

But been also finding time for last minute summer activities before this weather goes away.  

Camping, parties, love, fun.  Those last 3 things happen year around.

Oh, and I was introduced to Manwolfs.

And staying busy.  I got to meet Reynolds! 

Installation work by me, Blanca Martinez, and Megan Bingham with Madprops.

Emerica was at 35th North Skateshop the other day.  And yes I did go- not get a stupid autograph, but to make photo.  Old Skateboarder crush---Andrew Reynolds is considered a legend to little kids these days.

And got to style an amazing event put on by Slideluck, a non-profit organization that throws these awesome potluck dinner parties/slideshow to show the work of many talented photographers.  Over 250 people showed up!  Held at Voda Studios this year, the event was a complete success.  

Lots of great work, people & good vibes.  Thanks, David Wentworth for putting on a great show.
Here are some photos of the decor we did:

  Man, I miss that dirty California weather already.

 Camping with friends-  Lake Wenatchee, Washington- Beautiful spot.

 our men made that teepee- isn't it legit?  

They're rugged and manly.

 

Til' next time!  Au Revoir!

it's been 1 month, I'm sorry

No.6 Woven New Huarache clog sandal. Elevated.  Comfort.  Summer-licious.  I want now.

Speaking of shoes- Totokaelo (snapshot of store above) just opened up there new storefront in Capitol Hill.  They were located in Belltown before, but the new layout is pretty sharp- extremely spacious, I walked in there and thought I had just entered a spaceship.  I first noticed their shoe display, there seems to be this trend going on... Another semi-new shop located in the same neighborhood, Kaledoscopic Vision has a very similar-almost identical shoe display-although, I have to say they have been open a bit longer and let me tell you, those girls know how to party!  They were servin up the tequila on cinco de mayo- and collecting a random, song-request...it was fantastic + the shop is pretty awesome, lots of treasures in there.  Capitol Hill was in need of a place like this- affordable vintage-finds instead of walking into Value Village restraining yourself from the horrible b.o. smell.  This type of shoe-shop display, contemporary, clinical, fictive world-inspired retail interior has been around for a while.  Remember, contemporary art photographer, Andreas Gursky's, Prada I in 1996?  Check it, below.

I love love love- the eyeliner on the outside of your bottom lashline as oppose to the inside of your lashline.  oh, her hair is pretty legit too.

flower power

would like to have industrial shelving like this in my closet.

inside the home of fashion designer, Alex Hercovitch.

I have this exact garden table set.  It was a hand me down from ben's grandmother pappas, still in it's original green color, but I like how Lucy painted her's red.  

The handmade glasshouse is wonderful as well.  It seems like she collected miscellaneous reclaimed windows and arranged them into this unique looking backyard hut, I love it.

currently obsessed with pattern on pattern, mismatched, and nineties.  photographer and good friend, will miller and I played in the studio again.  here is the lovely Damaris dressed in floral from head to toe.  pretty and static. subdued, but fun.
