My Styling for Liz Rowe | Impulse Magazine 2013

Every once in a while in my life, I meet someone who is absolutely irreplaceable. Liz Rowe is that person. I met her while studying at the University of Illinois while she was earning her Masters of Fine Arts in Costume Design & Technology and I was earning my Bachelors degree in the same exact field. We had so many classes together and I'll never forget how hilarious and sincere she was in the costume shop and in general. She was always the life of the costume shop..... I love you so much, Liz! She's from Canada and before moving to the USA, she got her degree in make-up design and even worked on the set of Resident Evil III doing the zombie dogs' make-up. Remember those? Well, we decided to shoot her photos for Impulse magazine last year to tell her story. Her interview is lost and I have no idea if it went up on the Impulse Magazine website, but I'm trying to find it. Puja Patel took the photos and she was so wonderful! I loved going through Liz's wardrobe and her *amazing* necklaces from all over the world. She's truly a gem and a triple threat in costume design, make-up, hair, beading and so much more! She's hilarious and so beautiful to boot. I miss you, Liz!!! Thanks for trusting me & wearing pastel tights even though you weren't quite sure about it. You're the best.

Impulse Magazine Feature & Out-takes by Nathan Adhikari

These are the photos that were not used by Impulse Magazine for my featured spread that was published this Fall. True to nature, Nathan Adhikari took these photos in a small park near his house. It started to rain while we were taking these photos, so we had to run for the car! I also hit myself in the face at the end of the shoot when shaking a tree branch for the petals to fall.... so embarrassing.... but you have to learn to laugh at yourself sometimes :) Below is the actual feature in Impulse Magazine.
Outfit details: vintage silk blouse- Goodwill
wedges- Jeffrey Campbell via Modcloth
belt- Salvation Army
gloves- Dandelion Vintage
bow tie- Paulie Antiques made by me!
hat- vintage, my mother's
If you like these photos, please visit Nathan's facebook page!

Impulse Magazine Release Party

Hi, there! Just popped in to say hello and things have been very busy around here... But I just got a couple of photos from the Impulse Magazine Release party from a couple weeks ago. I got to meet the man on the cover... Timmy!

The Littlest Polly featured in Impulse Magazine

I've been keeping a big secret since May of last year..... I've been chosen as blogger of the year in Impulse Magazine! The story is a little crazy because Impulse Magazine contacted me because they were doing student awards and they wanted to feature me... but they also heard about all of my suitcases from my model and friend Jessie Whitman. So I immediately jumped at the opportunity and Nathan Adhikari agreed to shoot some photos of me for the feature. I ended up becoming a fashion stylist for the magazine and I also have one of my bow ties featured in this month's issue as well as some suitcases and vintage accessories! Working for Impulse Magazine is wonderful.... I can't wait to show you more of this new issue being released today and our issues to come in the future! Tonight is the release party... so I'll share photos soon! (and I'll take more crisp photos of the magazine... something is wrong with my memory card reader... so instagram has to suffice for now). AND OF COURSE... I styled my own outfit :) XOXO
