Ello giveaway!

Hey kiddos, you may know that one of my older brother's is an industrial designer. And he is one of the many cool dudes behind creating these fun ello bottles, that you can snag online or at Target! I love these bottles not only because they are so well designed, but because they are super green! Made from recycled glass, BPA, and lead free! They add no funny taste to your beverages and they are super easy to clean. I have close to a ton of these bottles because they are so easy for storing my homemade juices or smoothies, and then I can just grab them on the go! Plus I can just toss them in my bag and not worry about the liquid getting everywhere! (except for the open lid ones!!)

 Remember Carlton Banks dancing to Its Not Unusual  on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air? I was reminded of that when I was editing these photos and realized that I some how channeled my inner Carlton. Not so much a right winged conservative to hopes to one day be president....but maybe more of his preppy nerdy side, who likes to listen to his parents music. There's nothing wrong with getting down with some oldies and as for me classic 80s jams are always on repeat. Hall & Oates, anyone?

I always loved how the preppy was often considered the villain in 80s-90s media, like Steff on pretty in pink. But like Andy I always found them midly alluring...from big shoulders to a decadent lifestyle it all seems like a synthesized version of the French Rococo period. Still complete with pastel clothing and big hair. Maybe that's why I'm so attracted to it....

Therefore, this is my tribute to Rococo 80s prep, big hair, big shoulders, and all around saturated cheekiness. Lets all eat some cake, shall we?

But before that  I leave you with this...

Happy Friday ;)
