Solsbury (Federal) Hill

I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
“Hey” he said “Grab your things
I’ve come to take you home.”
(Back home)

These photos were shot right here in Baltimore over the breezy weekend, on Federal Hill overlooking the inner harbor. I worked with a new photographer, who has potential to be the EffortlessCool official photographer; great potential! He brought some great creativity to our shoot and definitely knew what he was doing; which is refreshing and exciting to me. I’m hoping to put in motion plenty of ideas I’ve had for the blog mulling around inside my head.
Anyway, this was definitely a fun set to shoot, despite the bone chilling wind. I loved the cityscape background mixed with the earthy tones, which lent a hand to playing up the similar colors in my outfit. Seeing the skyline and harbor is really making me fall in love with my new home and I’ve been loving seeing more of what it has to offer, even if my Brooklyn Bones are still aching for the streets I formerly called home.
Someday, Someday.

We Live Half in the Day Time, and We Live Half at Night

A little day-to-evening post for you guys! I wore this dress (gifted by Hype Style) to the mall with my favored moto boots and jacket.Also, click here to check out the things I bought!

After linking up with my friend, we took a walk back to her place where, over a lovely glass of port, decided we would get ALL dolled up and go to the local gay bar for a Karaoke night. and when I say ALL dolled up, I truly mean it! Dark lips, high heels, and even wigs!

I finished off my night by getting a new tattoo; one I’ve wanted for YEARS; a quote from Shakespeare’s Hamlet that goes ” When Sorrows come, they come not single spies but in battalions”. I got it at a perfect time in my life as well, considering the last two weeks, and the last year of my life; so many hospitals and literal traumas. When things go bad, many things go bad.

Song of the Day:

Hope you’re all having a good week!

Granma’s 90th

While on vacation we took a break from our home cooked dinners to go out for my grandmother’s 90th birthday dinner. We took a nice family picture (which we then had framed and given to her as a gift). We then went to a Pine Point local restaurant called the Captain’s Galley. With minimal vegetarian options I opted for fried vegetables with penne and alfredo. My 14 year old brother, though, made my night. I’m a HUGEfan of french fries, so my brother verrrrrry sneakily snuck a fry on my plate at every chance he got, completely under my radar, making it so every time I looked down I had a greasy, delicious fry poking out of my pasta! In the picture below we had just taken a picture with his arm around me where he stuck one in my mouth. Silly, but it made my night.
