Abstract Outfit Art

July 13, 2020,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

On these hot summer days easy dresses like this have been my go to. With the right print the dress can look upscale and even chic, but with all the comfort of a nightgown. For a beach day (albeit a foggy one) I paired it with a sunhat and flats, not pictured. Dress: SheIn, Hat:…Read More

Stormy Weather

July 6, 2020,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I had huge plans for a sunrise shoot on the beach yesterday (and my poor mother got up at 4:30am to help me) but unfortunately nature had other ideas. It was foggy and humid and dreary all morning. Luckily I was able to turn lemons into lemonade and take a few moody photos in this…Read More

Sunday Snapshots

by Celina[zilla_likes]

              From left to right: 1) I get paid to look at beautiful art like this. Best job in the world. 2) Strolling on the beach for a wedding in Gloucester. 3) More museum hopping. 4) Can I have hotel breakfast in bed every day? 5) When you look into the art, the art looks back at you. 6) More shots from my…Read More

I take a book with me everywhere. It could be a black-tie event, you can bet I stuffed a paperback into that clutch. When I was younger I used to read in trees cause I wanted to be like Johnny Appleseed. (I grew up in New Hampshire, what can you do?) Now one of my…Read More

Provincetown Day Trip Travel Guide

July 31, 2017,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Yesterday I took the Bay State Cruise line’s fast ferry to Provincetown for a Sunday slice of the Cape. It’s just 90 minutes on the ferry from Boston’s seaport to Massachusetts’ artiest, most LGBTQ friendly town. Though it’s the thick of summer, I found PTown to be quite calm, not at all overcrowded. With beaches,…Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

             From left to right: 1) An e-mail free Sunday is what dreams are made of. 2) Snapshot of a moving exhibit at the Boston Graduate School of Psychoanalysis. 3) Summer is for patio bites and chilled glasses of wine. 4) Still dreaming about my dinner at the Oak Room. 5) Nothing says “weekend” like a tulle skirt! 6) Popping bottles on the…Read More
