Behind the Scenes: "Dear Shoes" Lookbook

we admit it...we might be a little lookbook obsessed....but can you blame us?? they're just so fun!

in the wake of our cobblestone collab we decided to shoot another lookbook, swearing to ourselves that this time it will be a smaller, simpler, easier project...but inevitably our creative sides take over and we embrace our new store motto, more is more. 

last tuesday we holed up in this s.t.u.n.n.i.n.g. sotheby's home (it's on the market, y'all!) and shot our fave lookbook to date. 

we went with a more conceptual theme this time around, and we hope y'all love it just as much as we do! of course we enlisted our go-to photo gal, susannah from alumbra photography and we think she has really outdone herself this time...seriously, these pics are unreal. 

we will be releasing the full lookbook on may 6th (can y'all hardly wait?!) but until then, here are some behind the scenes pics to tide you over!

henry, pulling his weight.

look for "Dear Shoes, I Love You" on may 6th!!

#cobblestonerunway: Alumbra Photography

by now y'all probably know how obsessed with susannah we are. not only has she shot our past three lookbooks (and a new one that we're shooting next week…whaaaaatt??) but she also took kelly and chris' baby announcement, henry's newborn photos AND their 2013 holiday card/six month shoot. 

basically susannah will be photographing every major bb event for the rest of time…bb engagements, bb weddings, bb babies, the list goes on and on.

not only does susannah take the most incredible photos, but she is an absolute joy to work with. 

….ok we admit it, we totally have a huge crush on her. so what?

AND not only can you hire susannah to photograph your entire life (like we do) but you can also work next to her! there is studio space available in her office on patrick street in old town. 

check out the past lookbooks she's shot for us:

What is your favorite thing about spring?

The warm weather! I'm all about jeans and heels, so it's great to finally be able to comfortable beat a little ankle skin.

Who is your fashion icon?

I have several. Among them are the Olsens, Olivia Palermo, Kelly Framel (with the exception of her recent obsession with drop-crotch pants...I want to like them but I'm not there yet), and little Jane from Sea of Shoes.

Who is your favorite famous pup?

Scooby Doo.

Your favorite part of Old Town?

King Street for shopping and eating, but also love to walk along the water by the Torpedo Factory.

Your favorite weekend getaway spot?

The Omni at Bedford Springs -- it's a bit of a hike in Bedford, PA, but the spa is so worth it! They use all-natural products and you can soak/steam in pure spring water. A favorite year round. It doesn't hurt that the Hagerstown outlets provide a nice opportunity to stretch your legs mid-road trip.

#cobblestonerunway: Tammy from A Loyal Love

"A Loyal Love - a style blog where fashion gets personal. By combining her unique sophisticated style with impeccable design, Tammy shares her loyal love for fashion and creating beautiful things."

-Tammy, A Loyal Love

we asked tammy:

What is your favorite thing about spring?

Spring is my favorite season so it is difficult to pick one favorite thing - I love the return of outdoor dining, cherry blossoms, and being able to bare my legs.

Who is your fashion icon?

I love everything Kate Bosworth wears.

Who is your favorite famous pup?

Boo! I can't help but gush over that adorable face.

Your favorite part of Old Town?

I love how pet friendly Old Town is and that many shops have water outside and allow you to bring your dogs inside.

Your favorite weekend getaway spot?

There's so much to see and do in the DMV area. I love playing tourist in my own city, DC.

Cobblestone Runway: A Closer Look Part 2

we were so excited when we heard that we were going to be able to shoot at the morrison house hotel and jackson 20! we are big fans of jackson 20 brunch, and we love visiting the morrison house hotel restaurant for drinks after work.

the morrison house hotel was built with the intention of blending into the historical homes you see all throughout old town. the entire hotel has an extremely homey, cozy feel and is a wonderful place to stay while visiting old town.

jackson 20 is attached to hotel monaco, which is one of the most amazingly beautiful boutique hotels we've seen. ever. it has the perfect blend of historical architecture with touches of modern style and we would love the chance to stay the night in such a glamorous spot. not to mention they allow pets of all shapes and sizes at no extra cost. now that's something we can get behind!!

like cocktails and puppies...make sure you head over to Jackson 20 for the return of their yappy hour all summer long!
