1953


Yesterday was amazing! So busy and so full of special moments. I spent the day with one of my very best friends, Christian. First we drove to this AMAZING estate sale. They had the most beautiful, antique items ever. I was thrilled!! Anyway, I had an absolute vintage heart attack when I walked in and saw the most BEAUTIFUL antique wedding dress ever... oh. my. gosh.

wish I could have gotten a better photo of it.. It was truly breath taking and in perfect condition.. I may go back this weekend and see if it's still there and shoot an offer, who knows! This dress will haunt my dreams until it's mine, I'm sure.

Anyway, after the estate sale, Christian and I went thrifting, I found some pretty nice items. I can't wait to really start taking photos and adding all of my new merchandise! After shopping, eating sushi, getting coffee and buying these adorable new socks, Christian and I stopped by this barn to take some outfit photos. He did such an amazing job! Can you tell barns are becoming my favorite places to take photos at? ha.




I really loved how these turned out! The sky is so blue and it goes perfectly with my favorite 1950's dress. I got this dress sometime last summer and I instantly fell in love! It's pure perfection.





I'm so blessed to be surrounded by so many beautiful places. It makes photoshoots that much more exciting and fun.




I'm also blessed to have such amazing friends and family who don't mind taking photos of me, ha... They are all so wonderful!

what I wore:
dress, vintage 1950's
oxford heels, etsy, Dove Bird Designs
socks, Macy's
hat, thrifted

Hope everyone has a beautiful weekend!
xo,
Kala Noel.

    That blue dress is so super perfect! I love it so much - I want one just like it! I love the detailing at the neckline and it's the perfect length for summer. The hat you paired with it is really cute!

    It sounds like you had a truly wonderful day! :) How do you find estate sales? I always hear bloggers talking about how great they are, but I don't know how to find any in my area.

    That blue dress is beautiful! I love the lace detailing at the neck. :)

    That dress is so lovely on you, and you're right, the landscape around you just totally jives with the outfit. And so pretty! I feel guilty that I'm not out taking more photos in less boring places.
