That 70's Shoot - Pt. 1

Tawny Smith April 11, 2016

Okay, so to be honest, I have been so so bad about posting lately. Bad blogger Tawny. But I have had a ton going on that I have been wanting to share with you all! 

First off, let's talk about this editorial, That '70s Shoot... haha... get it? That '70s Shoot, Shoo, Sho, Show. I know, I know, that's some pretty artsy stuff there. Anyways, I loved shooting this throwback editorial, this little Seattle shop was seriously so tight; there were rows and rows of records, tapes, CD's and a super retro diner downstairs. This is Part 1 of this fun little series and I can't wait to post Part 2 & 3, along with other news and tips to go along with each of them.

Now, on to more current things...

With being such a procrastinator lately, this blog post is going to be a wee bit shorter than I would have liked it to be. Only because I leave on a plane tomorrow to Alabama. And I haven't even started packing yet. Yikes! I know. But hey, I've heard if you wait until the last minute it only takes a minute?

So basically, my dearest friend lives in Alabama, but I am moving her up to Washington! She already lived in Washington for awhile, and then moved back home to pursue another career pathway but has wanted to come back to Seattle all along! So a few months back I asked, "well what's stopping ya!?" So we made a plan, came through with it, and will be driving across the country to move her back here! I have never done anything like this, and honestly don't know how it's going to turn out. But isn't that what adventures are all about?

So follow along with me on Snapchat (tawnymarie04) and Instagram (thechicchameleon) as I sit on my butt in a car for a whole entire week!

My flight lands in Atlanta because she lives in a small town that no one has ever heard of and that's closest main airport. After she enjoys the Justin Bieber concert that night, she will swing by the airport and snatch me up.

So here's our plan...

Atlanta --> Sulligent (her small town) --> Grand Canyon (gotta do some sight seeing, make the most out of our trip) --> LA (cause why not?) --> San Fran --> HOME.

Okay, get with it and follow along with me on social media this week guys! If you know of any good places we should stop that is along our route, please do share! We are so excited for this adventure. I hope we don't get kidnapped :)

Blessed to have been able to work with so many beautiful black women over the years and I wanted to shout some out! ✨⁣

This is Monique. This girl right here is passionate!!! Passionate about life, about food, about standing up for what’s righ Quarantine has me blowing the dust off of some goodies from the archives. 💨 Do we mind if I get honest for a second? No? Cool. Moving has been hard. I miss creating and working with the community I had back in WA. I miss having friends who were down to create on whim and having a consistent outlet to express myself. It&rsquo “The ocean is all I want to be. Beautiful, mysterious, wild and free.” “You used to touch me like you never felt a thing...” “pickin’ wings off of angels has always been my religion...” I get to see this little queen in a week! 💛 can’t wait to see my girls! @itstashhaynes
