REDBROWNBLONDE: ONE

While we're each excited about our own unique lists, we're super looking forward to the few things we get to do together (like visit Rose in HAWAII next summer...)?! 

This first NEW was just that fabulous -- the girls made their way up to snowy Ohio for what originally began as a photo shoot for Rose's handmade goodies. The idea for this blog came along somewhere in the planning process for the shoot, and thus, it expanded into a crazy fun REDBROWNBLONDE BLOG shoot. What could be better than 6 hours of dress up and photo taking...? Nothing -- that's what we thought, too!

They arrived late one Friday evening and brought with

them only small flats and high heel shoes, despite my winter warnings. We made a schedule for ourselves the night before, got up early to pack the Rav with overstuffed Vera Bradley bags, and headed to the studio. This was something new for each of us – I'd never shot with such extensive lighting and equipment. Claire was a perfect model (no surprise), and Rose was such a good stylist (shocker). We did the business stuff first -and then spent the last two hours playing dress up. We dressed up as our husbands, wore fancy hats, bright tights, big heels, and even brought out.... our wedding dresses. Silly, you say? Maybe a little, but admit it, you'd dress up with your girl friends in your favorite white dress given the chance, right?! Who wouldn't?


You'll only get a sneak peak of the photos today – we'll release more as the adventure progresses! These are three of my favorites from the day. All accessories are hand made by our very own Rose, better known here as the BROWN one. You can browse and buy more of her goodies HERE!





One down, 297 to go!
don't feel cheated. this really did count as one new for each of us.
you're welcome to send complaints if you so desire.
