So you think you've spotted your long lost Minnie Mouse lunch tote from kindergarten? Wrong--- this is uber exclusive vintage neon navajo print! Okay, so maybe I am still repressing anger/embarrassment from having been stuck with a purple Barney & Friends box---you will not pry this beautifully ugly Disney bag from my hands!  It's literally the perfect size for a macbook.

This totally justifies its use in everyday adult life :)

So what do you do with two hours, a model and a photographer on a Thursday afternoon? Have a photo shoot at the Latino grocery store of course!  For our April mini lookbook we "invaded" our local MegaMart to shoot neons and brights---- imagine a modern day bad ass Chiquita Banana in 6-inch platforms from Solestruck.  We wanted to shoot earlier but were delayed and ended up getting there during prime grocery time... I wish we had a photo of the looks on everyone's faces as we sent flashes everywhere with our giant umbrella while Marcela posed with mangos.  The men of Megamart gave us lots of positive "words of encouragement" while the women... well lets just say they weren't too pleased.  The look on one woman's face was as if to say "Umm, can I please just get my produce and get out of here?"  Needless to say, it was definitely the most exciting event to ever take place at that supermercado and I'm glad we were a part of it ;)

Thank you to Marshall for photographing/editing the "fruits" of our labor :)
