• The lookbook from last weekend’s adventures on the Eastern Shore is now available to view online. You can learn more about my great friends JamesPaulMelissaKendrickChris, and Mafe (Maria), at their respective blogs. 

    I took photos over the course of three days, spent two days of quality time with Photoshop and InDesign, then uploaded the book to issuu last night. This is my first time putting together a lookbook and I’m pretty happy with the result. I went back and forth on adding text; in the end I decided to let the pictures do the talking. Feel free to share the lookbook if you like it. I will also be posting photos that didn’t make it into the lookbook so I’ve made it easy to track updates by adding a dedicated link on the sidebar of my blog.

    Special thanks to James and Melissa for hosting and to Paul for letting me use his cameras.

  • Standing around during croquet last weekend. James is probably making fun of Paul’s astonishingly bad croquet game.

  • Setting the scene. Photo mash-up of the location for last weekend’s antics. View of the driveway, front lawn, garage apartment.
I’m working on putting together a “look book” of the weekend for the people that were in attendance. I’ll be dropping select photos on the blog.

  • Another photo by Kendrick from this past weekend. I’m in the green sweater. Standing with me is Kendrick’s lovely wife (she had the best coat on from Zara).

  • Kendrick captured a real life Gant-lookbook-esque moment on the Eastern Shore this past weekend. CB was sadly better than me (I’m a former laxer). I blame it on the fact that I was using a men’s stick…

    I'm also on svpply
    The personal blog of S.L. Sterling. I'm a 20-something woman with an interest in fashion, things made in America, micro-brewed beers and strong coffee, hiking, days off spent watching TV or playing Xbox. I'd rather discuss the way a garment is stitched than trends.

    One of my life goals is to open my own boutique. I currently manage the Washington, DC showroom of a men's custom apparel brand.
