Living in California you would think that the word 'snow' is part of a foreign language. Sadly for me I don't live near the typical beachy coast with glittering sand, crashing waves, and surfer bods. The desert is where I reside and although it's not something I always like, it will always be home. Since we're so close to the mountains the weather up here is usually colder than our counterparts "down the hill" so we get snow at least once a year and when we do everyone freaks out about it. The other night my boyfriend and I decided to have a mini photo shoot before all the snow melted in his backyard. Although it was warm enough to melt the snow it was still definitely freezing, and by the end of this shoot you could chop my toes clean off my foot and I wouldn't have felt a thing. I also never realized how red my hair was until I saw these photos. I originally had my hair dyed to get that ombre hairstyle everyone is raving about, but after a while it just wasn't working for me so I dyed a reddish brown over it to mask the bleach. I didn't expect the red to be so noticeable though. Anyway, with his sister Jessica helping out with lighting we were able to snap a few photos of my outfit. I've been searching high and low for cute black boots like the ones I'm wearing in these photos, so much that I told Jessica I was willing to buy hers off of her. Haha I guess I'll just have to keep on looking...
