New Beginnings

 I have been wanting to do more blogging as of late, but have never really been able to do that since all of my cameras are film based. While I love the look of film and how one must really compose the shot before clicking away, I needed something that would save more money since developing film these days is pretty costly unless you do it yourself. I was able to save up some money and as a birthday gift to myself (and I guess Z too since he and Pig Dog are all that I ever photograph), purchased a Fujifilm X30 to carry along with my during my travels and document my boring life. (Guys...really my life just consists of work, school, pig dog, and now watching Gilmore Girls on Netflix...good-bye productivity and social life!) I did not want something too complicated to work and would rather have something with that vintage feel that could fit easily into my purse. Later this month, Z and I will be heading to Boston for his cousin's wedding and for once I would like to document one of our trips since I  have never been to Boston. (When I picture Boston, all I can imagine are row boats and docks reminiscent of Dawson's Creek...my favorite tween-show. 100 percent accurate, I know!)

As soon as the package arrived at my door, I charged up the camera and took some portraits of Z, Finnegan, and then later on my walk around my work's area. So far, I really like the handling of the camera and how easy it is to customize to my preferred settings.  I'm so excited to go on more adventures and finally open up that clothing store I've been wanted to do since my closet is practically exploding and begging me to sell some stuff ASAP.  Stay tuned for most pug over-loaded posts to come! Happy Friday!

The Wanderer

Usually on the weekends after being cooped up in an office all week, I do not want to stay in the apartment at all. I want to explore the city! I do not always have a plan of action--as was the case for this particular day, but it was okay. Sometimes the best adventures happen this way. Z and I ended up wandering around the city after he got a hair cut. We walked and walked all over and then finally decided to eat some Indian food for dinner. It may seem simple, but I thought it was a great day! 

Outfit Details:
Ginger Coat // American Apparel
Velvet Babydoll Floral Dress // Thrifted
Brown Backpack Purse // Forever 21
Brown Woven Sling Backs // EBay

I like the theme of these photos because they all have natural shades of browns and greens that I find myself mixing a lot in clothing. They are definitely one of my favorite color palettes to use and am drawn towards. Hope you all had a lovely weekend!
