ASOS Style & Albion Basin

Sam is going to take some engagement photos in a few weeks, and we've been scouting for good areas to shoot at. I say we because although he is the photographer of the family, I'm his assistant. This might sound like an easy gig, but I assure you it is not. It's a workout with Klair. Luckily though the engagement shoot should prove to be an easier job than I'm used to since, you know, we won't be taking pictures of a toddler for a change. I doubt there will be much running involved, and I can leave my crazy noises/funny faces/talent for eliciting laughter via peek-a-boo at home. Following the advice of a good friend, we headed up Little Cottonwood Canyon to Albion Basin a few nights ago. It's a beautiful area just above Snowbird and Alta ski resorts. I've driven up this canyon plenty of times in my Utahn life, but I had never driven this far. Once you get high enough, the pavement ends and a dirt road begins. This is where it really starts to get pretty, and where we decided to take the photos above. Wouldn't an engagement shoot in this location look absolutely stunning?? I'm in love. I can't wait to see what Sam produces.

Featured in the photos is a skirt and necklace that I bought online from ASOS which you can see here and here. The necklace is a layered locket. It's too small to put a picture in, so I had Klair kiss the inside instead. I've been wearing it non-stop since.

FYI both the skirt and necklace are on sale right now. Also, in case anyone is wondering, my headband came from a local boutique, but there is a similar one here.

If you love ASOS as much as I do, make sure to enter the giveaway below. It's running for only one more day, so don't put it off. They are having killer sales right now, so it's definitely a good time to win some free money towards their merch! Additionally, the giveaway will give you an awesome Style Lately tee of your choice and ad space on some awesome blogs. Win, win, win.

Also, this post wouldn't be complete without bragging about the last two photos. You see, I took them. That's right, me! I'm kind of proud because they just might be my favorite photos of Klair and her "dada" ever. And, even though Sam configured all the settings and set it all up, I'm the one who clicked the button. That's gotta count for something, right? I'd say so.

Happy hump day! And good luck with the giveaway :)
Sincerely yours,

Summer Refresher GIVEAWAY | ASOS, Style Lately, & Ad Space



gentri lee // autumn klair // missy sue // dearest lou // style lately


Ah, summertime. The dog days are upon us, and I don't know about you but I'm not entirely thrilled. These 100 + degree days and I don't exactly get along. In my opinion, sweltering heat isn't good for anything except swimming, and this mama can only take so much chlorine. My wardrobe choices drastically decline this time of year. I love boots, scarves, and layering--three things that don't go over so well this time of year. Since I can't live in a swimsuit 24-7 (if only) it's easy to feel bored with the pieces I can actually venture outside in without melting.

If you feel similarly at all, or even if you just like free stuff... then you're in luck! Today I am teaming up with some lovely local bloggers to bring you an opportunity to win. free. stuff. The winner of this giveaway will be able to spice up their wardrobe and their blog (or shop). The details are laid out in the photo above.

To give my own wardrobe a pick-me-up, I recently made a few purchases on ASOS. I was going to create a style post for this giveaway, but my items didn't arrive quite as quickly as I had hoped. Thus, in lieu of my outfit I purchased (which I will post later) here are some of my current ASOS favorites (i.e. what I would buy if I won this giveaway). 

P.S. There is currently a huge sale for up to 70% off right now! All the items below are on sale.
