Style – KANSAS CITY PHOTOGRAPHER HEATHER MORROW

as i walked into garment district to pull wardrobe for an upcoming her life magazine shoot i found myself asking how on earth i’d never been in there before. i had never thought of the power and light district as a place to shop but i definitely do now. the garment district is a collective that features men’s and women’s clothing and accessories from fitness culture, frankie and jules, two chic blvd, label, scoobie, eye candy, imagery and more. you know me and my inability to shoot without shopping. i ended up buying this outfit from fitness culture. these eco-conscious teeki pants are made of 79% recycled plastic. they’re super soft and wash and wear so well. the kc garment collective is located in the power and light district at 1350 main street, kansas city, mo 64105 model maggie mackey of exposure, inc. hair by leslee weers of salon spice makeup by heidi bowles

inspired by this rainy day we’ve decided to theme today’s style friday around the perfect rainy day footwear, the hunter boot. if you don’t have a pair of these wellies, grab yourself a pair. zappos has a great variety. they tend to run a bit small, so you might want to order a half size up to ensure you can layer up some some thick socks. it’s all about how you layer. check out some of these stylish layered options and stay dry out there! stylishly yours, jordan and heather

i have to say i’m really proud to be from kansas city. so many amazing things are happening here and some of them seemingly in my own back yard. karrie kaneda, a fellow roeland park resident, is the designer behind happy habitat, a line of eco-friendly pillows, throws and baby blankets. karrie was recently in the running for the martha stewart american made contest so we put together an amazing lifestyle shoot to showcase her products. karrie designs each pattern herself and the products are as luxurious as they are beautiful. her daughter phoebe was the perfect model for our moroccan themed tea party. phoebe and her brother reese loved spending time in the tee pee we constructed with bamboo sticks and some of our favorite happy habitat throws. most of my readers know gina. she’s the incredible makeup artist/hair stylist behind so many of my senior portrait sessions but what they don’t know is that gina is just a good in front of the camera as she is behind it. i’ve wanted gina in front of my camera ever since i met her and i was thrilled that she agreed to model for us. she and her darling kids were […]

have you seen the june issue of her life magazine? it features a fashion shoot i’m really proud of. the stars were most definitely aligned on this one and it all came together just the way i wanted. the impeccable wardrobe is from clique boutique in prairie village. i was able to book model angela lyman from exposure, inc.. we had our usual dream team of makeup artist melissa evans and hair stylist crystal wisniewski from soffia via. we shot at what is seriously the cutest little coffee shop in all of kansas city – hi hat coffee in westwood. and i even sweet talked my friend tricia in to assisting me. thanks, tricia! here’s a little breakdown of each look. on the left is a white + warren sleeveless dress with a turquoise necklace (that i’m coveting so hard) by jetcouture jewels, formerly known as jet lag jewels. (my anniversary is coming up…hint, hint, mr. morrow!) and on the right is the trina turk sangria dress with vintage pearl hoops and a bracelet, both from 74 harley street. jetcouture jewels and 74 harley street are lines i adore and both are designed and produced right here in kansas city! how can you not love this pink […]

it’s finally friday! the weather in kansas city has included everything from snow to sunshine to rain this week. i can’t quite pack up my fall/winter clothes yet but i’m dying to bust out my spring wardrobe and this shoot for the april issue of her life magazine didn’t help. seeing everything lavish boutique has for spring and summer just made me long for warmer weather even more. i’m loving all the bright colors and i’m so happy to see that the neon craze isn’t over yet. i’m slightly obsessed with this darling cream dress and the way we accessorized it. i can’t get enough of bright colors paired with animal prints. and the high curly ponytail…such a fresh look for spring. and can we just talk about this stunning statement necklace for a minute? i was at lavish working with angel to pull wardrobe for the shoot when i spotted it from across the store. it stopped me in my tracks. (you know me…easily distracted by all things shiny.) i told angel we simply HAD to photograph this necklace and that she might as well tell me the price because once i photographed it i had no intention of returning it. i’ve […]

style friday – spring cleaning (your closet)

by heathermorrow· April 05, 2013· in Style· 0 comments tags: closet makeover, spring cleaning, style friday

happy friday! gorgeous weather has finally hit kansas city and now is the perfect time to do a little spring cleaning. but not the kind that requires toxic chemicals and rubber gloves. we’re talking about your closet! hopefully this acts as a little motivator for you and since we’re posting about it, we’re definitely going to have to do it, too. here are a few tips to help you get that spring closet cleaning underway. 1.) ditch the clutter. if you haven’t worn it in the last year put it in a give away pile. chances are you won’t even miss it later. 2.) donate or host a clothing swap. give someone else a chance to love your stuff the way you did. 3.) orgaznize. arizona foothills magazine provides some great tips on organizing what you decide to keep. 4.) fine tune your style. find what inspires you – flip through a magazine, check out some new blogs (we love cara loren and ), hop on our pinterest i’d wear that board, … whatever floats your boat. 5.) buy something new. now that you’ve done all that work, you deserve something new. good luck and enjoy the weekend!
