    project 365 : days 232 – 238

    by Kaylah Stroup August 28, 2017

    232 : 365 Sunday evening outfit photos. You can find the resulting post here.

    233 : 365 I hadn’t thought too much about the eclipse before looking out my window and spotting a bunch of my neighbors staring at the sky. I decided to grab my camera and head outside. This is what I shot.  There are a few other shots over on my instagram, they actually became the most liked thing I’ve ever posted.

    234 : 365 Earling morning sunshine coming into my office.

    235 : 365 The fact that this photo is overexposed almost makes it even more creepy. This expressive little kitten is my favorite photography subject.

    236 : 365 I took a few last minute photos for the post on fun lighting around my apartment. Definitely recommend checking that out if you haven’t yet! The rest of the lights are way more awesome than this photo lets on.

    237 : 365 Friday’s outfit. Pins by Hemleva, found on Moorea Seal. I feel like this is a pretty accurate depiction of what I’ve been wearing a whole lot of lately. Overalls, bandana, pins + stripes!

    238 : 365 I have some new shoes… and I’m obsessed. I was originally leaning toward the black pair but decided I wanted to try something out of my comfort zone. Leopard print is definitely outside my comfort zone. I actually really really love them. They’re super cozy too!

    Hope your week is off to a great start!
    xoxo

    by Kaylah Stroup August 24, 2017

    Over the last year I’ve developed a bit of a lighting obsession. I think it may have started with the lights my landlord installed under the kitchen cabinets. One strand and it just adds so much to the entire room. They were apologetic because they thought it would look cooler but I LOVED it. Since …
