A Visit to the Met

Rodarte 2012

Do these patterns look a little familiar?

That's right! Rodarte's new Spring line features inspiration from Van Gogh's most famous works of art!

I still favor the original though! ;)

Cute Camera Bags

With my new lenses and my need to have them in arms reach at all times, I have decided to search for a cute camera bag that will also be super Austin-chic and here are my favorite finds!

1. Emera's Classic Canvas Tote - $169 (free shipping!)

2. THEIT Bag  - $159

 

 

3. Epiphanie LOLA Bag - $164.99 

(I like the red)

 

4. ONA - The Venice - $329

(my absolute favorite!)

 

Also, this is the Brooklyn ($309), made by the same company and just as amazing!

Hmm, maybe after I land a couple more gigs will I think about that beautiful leather bag, until then I will just try to keep the drool off my keyboard!

New Mexico Road Trip

A good friend of mine is a dog trainer and we journeyed over the weekend to New Mexico to buy two new Dutch Shepherd pups.

Cutest road trip I have ever taken.

We happened upon a wonderful town called Capital with funny kitchy shops and the Smokey the Bear Museum!

"The Golden Smokey Award"

Turns out that was the birth place and final resting place of Smokey the Bear, who in fact, was a real bear!

My wonderful friend with his new puppies!

Sweet bonding moment between the new pup and her older brother.

All in all a fantastic trip! To find out more info on Smokey you can visit this website!
