a tease, a taste, a flash of face.

After hikes in woods and nights with friends, spying on alpacas and luncheons on farms, I have returned to Los Angeles a happier, more complete person than before. As such, it would mean a great deal to me if you would take a moment to explore the minds (and websites) of my companions, conspirators, and co-collaborators...

I so love this phantasmagorical editorial... from the lighting, to the styling, to the story, to the selection of Lily Cole as model... it is a work of absolute wonder! I first spotted a photo from the set on my dear friend Rodellee's pinterest. Pinterest, if you have not yet discovered it, is a phenomenal new bookmarking site, that allows you to group your 'pins' onto separate 'pin boards.' I highly suggest that you take a peek at the site, and if you decide to join, my user name is Rebecca Emily Darling, and you may follow my own pinboards here. I hope you're all having a lovely weekend, and that these photographs inspire you as much as they have me!! xxoxoxoxo
