The Aviator

Hello, lovely Morgan and Lua readers! This is Maria, of Lulu Letty, filling in for Morgan while she gets some R&R! Today's post was so fun to shoot because Morgan had the brilliant idea for us to post about what we wanted to be when we grew up. While I wanted to be many different people in my youth, I felt no one was more amazing than Amelia Earhart! She was brilliant and brave, fearless and adventurous and to me nothing could be cooler than flying around the world!

Love this outfit! You are Amelia Earhart! This would make a great costume, but I bet you could pull it off for daily life. ;)

Thanks for the link to Morgan's blog, it's cute. Love that lip color, too.

This was going to be my costume when I thought I was going to a halloween party. Life has gotten in the way of halloween this year (why was my sister born around halloween? this interferes with plans!)
You look A-MA-ZING.
