By
Flat lay photo of life styled version of dress by itself and possibly a denim jacket over it.

Hey there! I just have to show you guys all the outfits I created with this awesome leopard slip dress.  I purchased this at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and it is my favorite item from the sale right now! I think this is something that any woman could wear and in any season.  If you are not into the leopard print it was also available in a floral. I think you could also find a slip dress that is a solid color and it would be just as cute and versatile. I hope this Flat Lay to Life-Styled: Leopard Slip Dress post will give you some inspiration on how to put some outfits together with any midi dress like this one. One of the biggest…

Tips for Shopping The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Hey there! Happy July! It is THAT time of year again! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is coming up! I am so glad I have something to look forward to in July.  Having an extensive retail background, July was always a dreadful month for me.  It was a time that everything for spring and summer was on sale and fall inventory was coming in.  The problem was and is that no one wants fall items because it’s 100 plus degrees outside!  I should also mention that sale time in July brings a totally different customer than you are used to the rest of the year.  All this made me look forward to July being over. Now it is a different story.  From a retail business…

How to Splurge and Feel Good About It

Goldne Goose Sneakers in a Flat lay With the beautiful packaging it came in

I know the average person can not afford a designer bag or shoes.  I am one of those people.  I also have a hard time with the amount of money women’s clothing retails for; which comes from my many years of retail experience.  I know how much mark-up is applied to merchandise and it is astounding!  Since I have been out of the retail world it has been very hard to purchase things at full price. I will purchase at full price; I just really have to love the item and think it’s worth the price. My favorite item I have splurged on are my Golden Goose Deluxe Sneakers. These sneakers have been on my want list for a few years now! Everytime I would…

Lighting & Equipment Setup for a Clothing Flat Lay

By

Hey ladies! I hope you read my last post about Tips on How to Master a Clothing Flat Lay! This is a continuation of that and I will be giving you some tips on Lighting and Equipment Setup for a Clothing Flat Lay. This may require you to spend a little bit of money but the results are worth it if you want great quality photos. I have to begin by saying that I have a very professional set up.  My husband made me a platform with a stand that holds my camera above and dead center of the platform. I also use speed lights (flash) and a mirrorless camera. It took us about 6 months of practice to really get the lighting perfect and…
