New Brahmin and Haberdash

Posted by punky on Monday September 27, 2010 at 10:04 pm | Haberdash |

A few months ago Liana from New Brahmin and I talked about doing a photo shoot together featuring Haberdash clothes. I love the whole New Brahmin team, but I was so nervous to work with real stylists that I admire. Then I ran in to Janine at Sowa and I realized I was being a wuss and there was nothing to be scared about. The next week I was on vacation in Maine so I invited them to do the shoot there. I also brought along my friend Julie (she wears Haberdash really well) and my favorite photog Adam.

The results are on New Brahmin, and here are some other photos that I loved from that day:

If we are Twitter friends then you probably saw that I was up in Maine last week with Orchid Grey and New Brahmin on a top secret photo shoot mission. Well the girls left Tuesday night I stayed 7 more days playing around in the woods wearing Haberdash clothes leftover from the photo shoot. This one was my favorite:

Boldfacers Feature

I was planning to post this a few weeks ago before I left for Vacationland, but ran out of time. This summer has been filled with so many good things for The Haberdash and The Swapaholics, I almost forgot I had a style blog. But hopefully as outdoor market season slows down, I will have more fashion things to share with you. Anyways, last month I had the pleasure of hanging out with the crew from Boldfacers while we filmed a little video about the Haberdash.

You can watch my silly interview with Boldfacers here.
