Oh my...

 My friend, Jen, passed this site along to me and I'm kind of really in love with the dreamy and surreal quality of the photography.  It makes me stop and stare and maybe even wander in my mind a little more than usual... it's a little like magic and an embrace all rolled into one.

Yeah, I'll take this...

Some things I'd receive with open arms, given the chance.

Homemade Maple Marshmallows by Whimsy and Spice out of Brooklyn, NY

And who doesn't love a good "Yay"?  This "Modest" by The Light Fantastic

This journal by Baghy for my random thoughts and teeny sketches.

And, for you, a giveaway... Visit Green Eyed Monster for the chance to win a Ciara Obscura giveaway of a pair of Ode to Frolicking hair pins.

Fall/Winter Collection :: Behind the Scenes

Raquel is a doll.  She modeled the Ciara Obscura Fall/Winter 2010 collection with such grace.  So easy to work with, so kind to interact with.  Here are some shots from between takes.

That's me adjusting the My Dear, You are Captivating birdcage veil.
