Boardwalk Brights

5.24.2012


Urban Outfitters tiered tank, 
Thrifted patterned shorts, 
Mulberry bag, 
80%20 Paz sandals, 
C&A sunglasses, 
Vintage gold leaf chain.


This past weekend we finally had a break from the rain and just in time for me to run my 4th Half Marathon. The Brooklyn Half is one of my favorite runs because it starts in Prospect Park and ends in Coney Island. And what tastes better after a 13.1 mile run at 10am in the morning than a Nathan's hot dog? Yes, that happened.

Lauren's bf also ran in the half marathon so Lauren met us at the finish line to cheer us on. And although I was sweaty and achy we couldn't pass up an opportunity to capture her boardwalk ready outfit with the perfect summer backdrop. Rocking an amazing pair of 80%20 Paz sandals (check out the tribal print!) Lauren blended right in to her surrounding with her bright yellow tank and patterned shorts. Check out our guest blog post here for more pics.

PS. If you also make it down to Coney Island we highly recommend a stop at Plaza Mexico Dona Zita. Best tacos around.

xx, Micol

    I know this is an outfit post, but can I say that I love the lollipop??? I mean I love everything about the fashion and the photos and you two... But ultimately I love that lollipop!
    P.S. Saw your other blog post :) Lauren I would have totally joined you in the cheering squad!

    Your friend Lauren looks great - can't believe she found those shorts at a thrift store! And I"m so jealous, everyone has Mulberry bags, and I've yet to see one I'm not absolutely in love with.

    So envious of your running skills - I can hardly run 3 miles without fainting.

    Did you take all of these pics? You're super artistic! The brights in her outfit go so well with the colors of the foods stands, and then the lollipop prop! You're really talented. Do you shoot editorials? If not, you should - because it really seems like you've got an eye.
