Fashion is serious business. If you style photo shoots or ever shoot products you know that it takes hours to get that one shot that may or may not even be featured in the magazine or paper you are shooting it for. Last Friday after hours of product shots for Boston Globe feature. I had Adam take a few quick shots of Emma, Alfie and Penny. How cute are they?

I think im finally starting to settle into the whirl wind of changes that have come from the past six months. I really want to ease myself back in to posting here. When things started to take off with the Mobile Shop and the Swaps, it was hard to post here about normal everyday things. I was afraid people were just here to get Haberdash/Swap info and didn’t really want to see my outfits or 87489 photos of Emma and Penny. I got so caught up in trying to be the “face” of these two companies that it just wasn’t fun to post here anymore.
It wasn’t till my friend Jen posted a poll on her blog asking readers what they wanted to see more of that I realized…that this is still my space (not Haberdash’s or The Swapaholic’s) MINE…all mine. We have to stop catering to what we think people want and just be ourselves. I am fully aware that I took it in the direction of a business blog, so I’m taking it back…Bring on the puppy and outfit photos!

This weekend has been filled with suburban lifestyle staples like, kids bowling partys, Fire Department Meat Raffles and trips to the dog groomers with your super fierce pomeranian. Having to post outfit photos of your day at the meat raffle is a funny thing. If that dosen’t keep you modest, I dont know what will. I hope your long weekend was a bit more adventurous.

If you didn’t bring your dogs to Pet Rock this year, I think you owe them an big apology. Seriously, who ever thought up the idea to hold a music festival for dogs is brilliant.  Emma and Penny played with their puppy friends, went swimming, tested out all sorts of new snacks and even made some new friends. They were so exhausted  after that day, we couldn’t get them off the couch for a week.

Which one is Emma?

Penny’s new friend.

Recent conversation from the Rock Club I work at:

Carly: Rule #1 in rock ‘n roll is…Project into the microphone

Punky: Yup, and rule #2 is tights are not pants

I say tights are not pants all the time, But seriously what goes better with sequins then latex? My new philosophy is tights can be pants, But only amongst close friends.
