Hints of Minimalism... Minimally Hinting



jeans  and  a  black  blazer  and strappy heels-minimal classics


What I'm Wearing
* Vintage black blazer
* Trapeze tank by MYNE w/a black tank under... seen here in one of my favorites outfits still.
* Victoria's Secret cuffed/cropped jeans from a few years ago {I bought them a size big so they'd be baggy and I'm usually not a proponent of buying inexpensive jeans however, when the fit doesn't really matter, like with these, they do just fine}
* Various bangles, D&G watch, gold branch bracelets, AV Max Python bangle, Fornash Rome leather/gold wrap bracelet in white from HauteLook.
* Tiffany gold pendant necklace.
* Chloe gray/gold sunglasses
* Rebecca Minkoff MAB in gray
* Charles Jourdan strappy heels... I half-sized up but didn't need to. Luckily the straps keep my feet held in.

Sometimes the husband and I catch the sun at just the right second before it sets for the night and end up with some really beautiful photos. The exploding light behind me and the peachy glare on the street is just so pretty to me. I was a bit off in the first shot, but it kind of made my hair look more magical than when I was standing directly in front of the sun. My husband has been shooting my outfits shots {with my direction, or more, my demanding} just about a year now and has gotten so good. For someone who literally never picked up a camera and only rarely even took/takes pictures with his iPhone, AND who fought wanting to learn anything about it, his eye for it is unmistakable. If were were both a little more technical, and understood my camera and lenses better, we could create even prettier shots. Anyway, I wore this outfit last Saturday, out to dinner with some friends ;)

yes, beautiful shots and I love your look too! perfect for a dinner date with friends.x

(my husband is my photographer too and it's amazing what I ask of him and yet also, that the photos turn out so well most of the time - we got some great sun setting shots on wed's post too. I bet you, like me, feel so proud of him).x

Can you get any cuter? Love your style Maegan!

Kat said...

These photos did come out very beautifully. I do like the sunlight behind you. I'm a new blogger and have been "lurking in the shadows" of your blog for some time now. And same, slowly by slowly, I'm getting the boyfriend to get certain shots and angles. Takes dedication. We're both learning together!
