I am pretty much in love with this Blog. Bronze skin, sun bleached hair, it's all there.
 Go check it out.
You must.
All things rad in the 70's captured. I really wish I could spend a week, go back in time and experience this Era. No cellphones, no ipad, no skin cancer scares,  just me and my friends at the beach and not a care in the world.

OMG I HEART: GipsyStyle on Etsy

 I don't know how I came across this Etsy store GipsyStyle but when I did it made me so excited and also teary eyed. Teary eyed in a good way. These photo's were taken by the Flagship Hotel built in 1965. I love that spot. This is the spot I learned how to surf in High School. This spot is our meeting point when we tell friends to head to the beach. This is still our spot. The Flagship Hotel is no longer there because of  Hurricane Ike. The cool thing is that they built Pleasure Pier which was the original structure that was replaced by The Flagship (because of Hurricane Carla). A lot of replacing I know. But I love that they went back to the original amusement park idea instead of building a new modern looking hotel.

Anyway I keep looking at these photo's and so much is going on in each and everyone and I am so thankful that these moments were captured. Jacob and I want to get some of these photos for our house but it's so hard to choose. We usually only hang up photography by close friends or family but we will make an exception for these. This hits home.

I love that this style is all around right now. It's my favorite on the guys! If you click on the photos in the etsy shop the photographer gives a more that awesome description. He was skipping school for 2 weeks to go see Pat McGee's Surf Shop on Mustang Island that just opened and stopped by Galveston to see what was going on.
