Today was photo day! Which normally gives me a reason to get up early, put on as much glam as I can possibly muster and drive to some sleepy location for some pics in the morning sunlight, but today I just wasn't feeling it. I got up and looked out the window at the b&b where we were staying, which was....unique and...well, let's leave it at unique. The sky was overcast and the town was just beginning to stir.
Even thought I glanced at the weather before heading out, 30% chance of rain turned out to be more than enough and I once again found myself running for cover under the awnings of the shop fronts. It soon let up to only a few gentle drops, so I decided to leave the protection of the awnings and step out into the street for some photos.
Even though I didn't really want to get up and glam up for pics today, I'm so glad I did, because look at this lovely city-scape behind me. Snugly settled into the mountainside, this cute touristy town looks like it came straight out of a painting. The lights, the banners, the trees, it's all so picture perfect.
Often when I travel, I take along a few special pieces in case a photo op presents itself and I'm glad I brought along a stunning Stop Staring! dress for this trip. Looking back on these pics makes it all worth the early morning and getting a little wet in the storm.
You may remember these gold heels and necklace from another post in this little town, and in fact I didn't bring them along for this dress, but as it turned out, they just looked so right with it that I had to pair them. Gold shoes just take the look up a notch in a way that other colors don't.
And don't forget that a little jewelry, even something as simple as a bracelet, adds so much presence and class to even the simplest outfit, so always aim for at least one piece of jewelry (no, engagement and wedding rings don't count, but they also don't hurt.)
