Dogwood Blossoms

Untitled-1

dress: vintage
shoes: vintage
tights: Banana Republic
hat: Miller's Hats

Here are a few more photos from the abandoned house shoot. I wish this place was within walking distance from where I live. I could go back and shoot so many more photos in its rooms. I couldn't help but wonder who in the world lived here. There were flower stickers all over the ceiling in the kitchen. One of the bathrooms had a toilet seat printed with the Greek gods while the other bathroom had the most amazing playing card wallpaper. It was kooky to say the least. One of my favorite parts (of course) was the dogwood flower wallpaper that was hanging inside the kitchen pantry.

Amazing place indeed! I can think of 1000 different stories about the people who lived there. You look amazing as usual and I'm in love with the first picyure :-)

Beautiful pictures!
I'm always impressed by your ability to connect outfits with the setting.

oh p.s...I have the same dress! Well, not really, the one I have was from saks and super big, but I altered it and it looks exactly like the one you're wearing.

These photos are beautifully taken and you look so vintage, I love it!

It would be very interesting to really know who lived there in the past. The dogwood paper wall hanging is pretty too.
