I’ve been holding on to this one for a while (shooting for the magazines is a lot of fun but the impatient girl in me goes crazy keeping it under wraps! I have a couple more I am dying to show. Ah… patience is a virtue they say?) ;)
I collaborated with Lillipops Designs and Michelle Elliott for this fun little ‘Stargazing’ feature I was commissioned to do for La Petite Magazine (we are the last article in the current issue).
It is an compliment to be amongst the other artists in this beautiful magazine. Here is a little snip-it of the shoot but be sure to click the link to get all the goodness…
(if you are a fan of Lillipops and would like to own the little angel wing size 7/8 outfit- capelet, tunic/skirt & leggings- just twitter or post on your fb page about the give away, let me know you did in the comments and you are entered into the random drawing!) I’ll announce a winner Thursday (8/25) night!!
wardrobe: Lillipops Designs
