Pleats + Lace


Last weekend we went to Charlotte, NC to visit my family and it was so nice to spend quality time with everyone, especially my four month old nephew.  I am always so grateful and appreciative of the time we all spend together.

One of the highlights from my trip was having a cup of coffee with the fabulous photographer and blogger Kelly (from Style Attic).  Even though Kelly and I had never met before I felt like I already knew her.  Kelly's blog was one of the first ones I came across when I started my blog and her photography is so inspiring to me.  Her blog posts are consistently creative, authentic, and best of all she always tells a story through her photos. Kelly is truly a genuine and beautiful person and she clearly has a natural flair for fashion photography.  If you get a chance do head over to Style Attic to check out some of the additional pictures Kelly took during our mini photo shoot.

I always loved pleats. I was glad to see some designers during NYFW are bringing pleated pants for ladies.

I am so happy to have found your blog via the talented and gorgeous Kelly, Life at Five Feet! Your style is wonderful and your smile is radiant! I rarely feel the need to order or buy something that I see on a blog, but your skirt is to fab to not order asap! I'm going to get the pink one!

Hamptontoes said...

Okay, just went to order the skirt in pink/nude color and noticed the gals modeling the various colors. You clearly should have these photos on their website...your style and way of pulling together the ensemble is flawless!

Dear Naina,
It's one of the most wonderful aspects of blogging that some truly cherished friendships have been forged in blogosphere. I had a very difficult time after losing dad last month and was deeply touched and moved by the beautiful mails and messages from my blogger friends.
I am glad you found a new friend too. These pictures are stunning. you look beautiful.
