Out of the Closet :: Casual Friday

CASUAL FRIDAY :: House of Valentina

My daughter and her friend from school have been with me all week, assisting me with photo shoots as a part of their school’s internship program.  I’ve had a total blast with my little assistants (who are not quite so little any more and quite significantly taller than me, too) but I told them I would be their stand in model, aka guinea pig, for a little “Out of the Closet” post so they could style, direct, and shoot the entire session.

They created a “Casual Friday” look for me which is probably a little more casual than my normal style these days, but I love how youthful these girls are and I felt just a teensy bit younger embracing their ways.  Despite the fact that their model was a short 30 something year old woman, I thought they did a pretty epic job with the brief, the composition, and these two 14 year olds were fantastic to work with.  I’m ready to hire them!

Guys!! I’m so happy right now I’m about to cry! The cuteness factor is off the charts!! I’m so excited to see our vision for our fall porch come together complete with pumpkins from the pumpkin patch!! 

And can we talk about Louis in his adorable fall sweater?! And the wreaths (they are faux!!!) and the lanterns and the flickering pumpkins?!!! 

If you could die from cuteness overload I’d be a goner! Hahaha but thankfully it looks like I’ll be holding on for a few more days and greeting our kids as they come home for fall here and it won’t be long and this will be getting a little Halloween overlay for trick or treaters! 

To me, these are the greatest moments of life. Creating a home that says “welcome home!” I hope in our own little way we can inspire you as well! As always, sending so much love from our home to yours! XxV
