A little peek
I’m back in LA and already missing the slower, quieter pace of the Northwest (rain and all!). It took me 100 years to fall asleep last night in the hot SoCal summer night with all the loud sounds of my neighborhood streaming in through our open window. The train was amazing, but I’ll tell you more about that adventure next week when I get my film back. You can see my instagram photos of my trip until then.
For now, a peek at the latest collection Ermie I shot last week before I left, which I can’t wait to share more of once Jennifer does. These are my shots from the day, which are of course all film. Everything about this shoot was amazing – I’ll tell you more soon. In related news, Jennifer has a great feature on Sight Unseen and it’s fun to see some of my photos up on such a great site.
Photo: Kate Miss. Model: Lauren Spencer King. Hair & Makeup: Beatrice Valenzuela. Dresses: Jennifer Parry Dodge of Ermie (I snagged the second dress and can attest to its magical powers), Jewelry: Ancient Pocket for Ermie by Vanessa Samp.
Have a great weekend!

Jennifer/Ermie is such a goddess. Makes me so happy two of my fave LA gals are such pals! Also, this is right about the time when you can thank Krishna for June gloom in your neck of the woods- it’s hot as hell, full humidity, absolutely sticky swampass-nastiness in New York right now.

First, I love that last dress. But second, I feel some crushing of the Los Angeles space time continuum as I went to college with Lauren. So hello! Lovely to see her face here this morning. Small world indeed.

Ahhh whenever I go from Victoria (where my BF lives) to Vancouver, where I live on a very busy road, I just want the city to shut up so badly!

I love how much LA lady talent is in these photos! They’re really incredible, Kate. And I don’t know how it will be possible to pick just one of these dresses.

[...] Love this article from the nytimes about the busy trap. And this open letter to people who take pictures of food with instagram. Ever wondered How to have a better blog. I’m obsessed with this song. It reminds me of my mom dancing in the living room when I was little. And road trips. Did you read this article on the renaissance of Marfa? Long but worth it. Oh. Hey. The salon that Morgan and I designed was in C Magazine last month. Also Mohawn General Store is having a sale including a dress I want from A.P.C. I want all of these dresses via kate miss. [...]

I’m not sure, I didn’t do the makeup. You’d have to ask Beatrice.
