But Summer I hardly knew you...

Summer came and said hello for those 3 or 4 weeks worth of days since June that it's been sunny and not pouring rain. And now it's gone. It was a hellishly hot hello for a lot of those days but I didn't REALLY mind. I love hot weather. I complain about it but I really actually love it. I wore a tank top today and was freezing. I'm not okay with that. I need to be eased into cooler weather. I can't have it going from 90 to 62 so suddenly. What's the rush? I've just got 2 more onesies that need to be worked out in a natural setting where I don't need to wear a jacket.

Speaking of weather, somehow I've become that coworker that everyone likes to talk to about the weather. And because I am OCD about knowing what the weather will be like at any given point of the day, I suppose I'm a good choice if you're looking to talk thunderstorm warnings.

In other news: I got some headshots taken this weekend. The amazing Andre Sayler did my pics and the experience was fantastic. I got up at 7am on Sunday and headed into Brooklyn on the J train--a train I have literally taken maybe 5 times roundtrip. The day was overcast but really comfortable out and there was really perfect lighting so we took a lot of the pictures outside. It was a very Brandy does Brooklyn morning and it ended with the discovery of sweet tea vodka in a pint glass at a restaurant called DuMont in Williamsburg. Thumbs up DuMont, thumbs up.

I have a few of my favorites below. Andre was the best and going through the pics with him, it was really amazing how he shot me from so many ways that I never see myself--it was almost like looking at a picture of someone else.










Not going to lie--LOVED feeling like a model!!!!


PS: Can't believe it's September tomorrow.
