Fancy Jackets and All White

And its not even my birthday! yet (c) Rihanna

 First I want everyone to know how absolutely OBSESSED with these pictures I am. There is NOTHING like seeing yourself look positively beautiful and knowing that you had nada to do with it. I’m blessed for Sig. I really think he captures me like no other has and that is why I think I look beautiful. Its like he sees the essence that is me and makes it come through the image. I am probably going so “hippy new age” with it but it is truly how I feel when I see these photographs. Before hiring FlashBangPhotography, my pictures were so “typical”. I looked so serious and was really trying to be a “blogger” because I wanted some recognition by brands. I did the oh so awkward looking poses. Bought the 50mm lens. Rarely smiled. Touched my hair, ALOT. Looked behind me at my heels. Crossed my legs (oh ok, I still do that but its my comfy pose). Looked out into oblivion and tried to appear deep in thought. Tried to sound uber cool when writing my posts (even though I am a goofball and suck at writing) and THEN, after some convos, I realized that I don’t fit the “typical” demographic of a fashion blogger and that is what is pretty damn awesome about Jen of Comme Coco! I am happy with that because with me you get a real human being who just enjoys fashion, dressing up and talking incessantly about nothing at all. (like this post) In a way I am a “girl’s best friend” because I believe and always try my best to support, encourage and congratulate everyone else on their achievements. I sincerely get so excited when I see a fellow blogger “make it” or get a super awesome opportunity. I can say though, there are some that I do NOT get excited for because they don’t deserve it because of their wanna be “I’m a celeb” attitude that is NEVER EVER necessary. I do not care how “known” you are or how much press you get, always STAY HUMBLE because we are all one paycheck/ pageview/bad post away from fading into obscurity in the internet world.

 I recently partnered with Style House PR to showcase some amazing new pieces by UK brand Warehouse. You may remember when I used to do the Swoon of the Week posts and my first ever was this leopard dress that I just had to have (but never got). Well lo and behold it was a Warehouse dress!!!! I know the common misconception is that bloggers just review or wear anything that they are sent because of the money but that is not always the case. I refuse to ever post or wear anything that I do not love and/or believe in. My integrity is EVERYTHING to me and I will never compromise it for anything in this world. I owe you all brutal honesty and promise to always deliver that. After wearing this jacket for the shoot and then to the 

Macy’s + CapFABB event (fun video of the event to come), 

I am certain that I will be purchasing it very, very soon!

oh by the way… tomorrow is my 25+6 birthday and I am very excited. Special post will be up tomorrow in celebration of the very most important day on the calendar!!!! LOL!
