...fancy...

This weekend was very out of the ordinary. This is not a normal event, but we had a fashion show in the studio for wedding fashion week. Which is different than normal fashion week I guess.
The shows (they actually had three) were amazing and beautiful. The clothes glowed. I took tons of photographs and they really don't do justice do the dresses. Plus the photos I love the most are the 'mistakes'. The girls are blurry or blown out. But beautiful in a strange way.
The show was for Italian designers called Domo Adami. I noticed that the designer spoke more English than he let on (because we could speak to one another and I don't know Italian), but it allows him to not have to speak to the clients. Wish I could have that trick! He was amazing though and the dresses were beyond fabulous. I took so many photos in fact that I am going to have to break down and get a flickr account. I have been trying to fight it, but between Lisa and mav it is a loosing battle. I gave it my best effort. Now don't get me wrong, its not as if I don't like flickr, the problem lies with me and my desire NOT to become addicted to all of the amazing photos out there.
On a totally different note I am going to be starting massage school in January (if all goes well with the application process). So Mike I am probably not going to be moving out to LA that quickly, but we are definitely coming out for more visits. We love you guys and the trip is easy with the airport so super close!
How weird must it be for models just to be an extension of the clothes?

Wait....you're moving? Did I read that right?
I love the blurb about the designer--I have a Puerto Rican grandmother and a Korean mother-in-law who use that same trick!
I also love the lighting in that first photo.
