Perfect Produce

August 4th, 2008

As recent posts can attest, the arrival of Fall cannot come soon enough. While I eagerly anticipate trading in my dresses and sandals for chunky knits and boots, I will definitely miss the Summer produce. Yesterday my boyfriend and I made the trek over to Hollywood for the Farmers’ Market and came home with heirloom tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, yellow nectarines, grapes, basil and asparagus.  All of the vibrant colors were so visually stunning that I simply had to create a collage.  Additionally, my Foley + Corinna made its official debut, in all of its slouchy glory, and even gained an adoring fan who praised its ‘perfect size.’ I couldn’t have agreed more.

    Hi sweetie, I’d love to trade links (sorry I got back to you so late!). And I’m loving those produce pictures. I loooove taking pictures of food, there’s something so nice about a close up of food that puts it a new perspective and makes you really appreciate their natural beauty!

  • http://urple.blogspot.com Katlin

    Oh, and that bag looks really good on you! I’ve always liked it’s design because there are different ways you can wear it and it’s roomy, but was always iffy on getting it because I felt like there were so many similar styles out there. But you have definitely changed my thinking because it looks like a great bag that I could get a lot of use out of!!

    I’m a huge fan of Foley and Corinna bags. I have two jet setters and city tote. I can’t get enough. Your’s looks fab on you. I’m kinda on the fence about the city tote on me. But I wouldn’t give up my jet setters for anything. They are the best bags ever.

    emily.. as others pointed out. you do look really lovely in the pics. :) good look for going to a market. I see a lot of people turn up wearing some ghastly ‘costumes’. :) tres chic
