Desert Scene, A Film About an Adventure in Arizona

Last month, Renee and I decided to take an impromtu trip to Scottsdale, Arizona where her family has a rad desert home. We were itching for a weekend getaway and ended up turning our mini vacation into a work retreat, because naturally as creatives we are always snapping photos and looking for new ways to explore our craft. We sipped margaritas while lounging in the pool, dressed up and gallivanted around the desert scenery and cactus friends, and explored Frontier Town in Cave Creek, AZ.

Renee and I decided to put together a fun video that summed up our desert adventure, and here it is! Desert Scene was filmed and edited by the talented Renee Rogers of Hanger Shortage, hope you enjoy living our Arizona journey through this short film. Renee and I will hopefully be making more of these fun travel films!

Wearing a Black Maxi Dress to an Evening Wedding

I had a wedding reception to attend and hadn't gotten to wear my 16thColony Paragone Dress, so I figured this was the perfect opportunity. Since it had quite the deep v and the reception was more on the conservative side, I decided to take the straps and tie them into a bow in front instead of around the back of my neck. Shop the dress and the rest of the Enigma Collection here, use code 'FFFBOHOBABES' and receive 20% off your entire purchase! I hope everyone has an amazing weekend! I'll be in Palm Springs this weekend, follow my instagram and snapchat @amandat_nguyen for a good time.
