On Top Of The World

Although I've only been in LA for two out of my nine weeks so far, it has already become abundantly clear to me why so many fashion professionals and successful fashion bloggers thrive here.

Being a fashion blogger, I automatically have my eyes peeled for exciting and interesting photo shoot locations. Finding that perfect spot with fantastic lighting and a unique backdrop is truly something special. And full disclosure: LA is full of these location gems! 

I wish I could take beautiful fashion photos in every cool place I see, but I just don't have that opportunity because, as we all know, it requires a second person to actually take those pictures for me. Sometimes it's better for me to just stick to what is convenient for others. I'm not one for settling either so, enter: this location beauty. It's right under (or more appropriately, above) my nose - the roof! 

My photographer and I had a lot of fun with these and I'm kind of obsessed with how they turned out. Plus, it literally looks like I'm on top of the world! Not a view of LA that you see too often!

    Can I just tell you, I am dying to go to LA, yes I can see why bloggers would want to live there. Seems it is so much easier to pull off photo shoots then living in city like NY where you take public transit and where it is sooooo crowded. But I guess if I were ever planning on going to LA would have to learn how to drive first.Ha!
