I got just what I needed this week… I got to hang out with two fabulous ladies for a day. Wendy & Jessica came and visited me here in Portland. I absolutely adore the fact that my job lends me the opportunity to meet people like them that I would never have had the chance to without. They were funny & sweet & the conversation just flowed like old friends all day. Not to mention that we got one of my favorite little models back in the studio (and her kill-me-with-his-adorableness little brother). The Measure outfitted our little angel & Knuckleheads wardrobed our mini pilot. Seriously… good day.
And to make your day… The Measure is giving away the little pants & shirt on our little girl below (size 6). To enter to win just comment below or on my FB page! I’ll pick a winner Tuesday :) **We have a winner!! Congrats to Galina Tarantul… email me your address! :)
