Desert Shoot!

This past spring I had an opportunity to photograph my friend and model, Lela. We went out in the desert and had some fun.

Working on getting more shoots lined up with models, so stay tuned!

Happy New Year!!

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!


I have alot of new things going on....and life can get so busy so sorry for lagging on the blog posts. I am also now posting new work on Tumblr! It is easy to share my work quickly and not have to always write about everything! Be sure to follow me there! http://juliejblair.tumblr.com 


I did get an opportunity recently to shoot in a studio! I wanted to learn more about studio lighting and it was great fun. Here are a few from that session. My friend and beautiful model Lela stepped in to help!

I will post more soon. I think I need to update everyone on some great interior design items and maybe some fun fashion finds! Until then....Happy New Year to all of you!

A Cowgirl Must Have Boots

Sometimes you just see a boot (or two, or three) you love!
Ariat never disappoints! (And I LOVE their new website! It rocks!)

Since I am riding western alot I really think I need to dress the part, eh? Love these (and they come in a nice brown color too):

And this boot is divine too:

And I always LOVE the look of the ostrich prints....these are to cute with the blue tops!

I mean a gal needs more than one pair of boots right?

An awesome bed

Sometimes you just see an image of something and go "oh my gosh I love it"!

Well, this is my, "OMG, I love it" bed. I love all of it...especially the textures and the neutral tones, the added animal print throw and pillows...All of it is so yummy! And the board with the writing behind it, well, hello...that is an added bonus....so cool.

Even the sisal rug beneath carries on the use of neutrals and texture!

Lets hope the weather cools off soon so we can all get cozy with an fuzzy throw blanket soon!

Boots & a Jacket

Fall is on its way....which hooray means cooler temps! I am so done with summer!
And with fall in mind, I simply love, love, love these boots by Dolce & Gabbana!!
The heel is a tad high but they are simply gorgeous!! (Hats off to the photographer, this is a beautiful image!)

I also love this jacket by H&M! Just too cute!

Fall can't get here fast enough!

An Tuscan style Home in SoCal!

Hi all,

I created this blog in hopes of sharing some of my love and passion for interior design, architecture and fashion. I have been negligent. So, today I catch up and hope that people will follow and enjoy the things I share here from time to time!

This past spring, I had a chance to photograph a home in Rancho Santa Fe, CA. When I drove up the driveway a big smile came across my face as the home was so Tuscan in style. It was like being transported to Italy....or how I think it would be to be in Italy. (Don't I wish! Beam me up Scotty!) Here are a few images from the day....

The house...love the stone work!! Just gorgeous!

Love the old, faded, peeling blue shutters! And the wood details above them. Even the latches on the shutters were rustic looking. The little blue wagon filled with pumpkins was an added bonus!

There was this cute garden shed in the back of the house filled with pots, baskets, and flowers. The main detail I loved was the cool rubbed bronze spigot and spray hose! And the stone sink and tile work was yummy!

Another angle...antlers and baskets....

I loved this cute chicken wire front cabinet in the Master Bath with the seaside accessories.

I will share more of this home later. Hope you enjoyed the pics.

Denim & Stone

Welcome to Denim & Stone! A blog about fashion and interiors.

My first love as many of you know is photography and photographing horses. There is just something about a horse...the power, energy, spirit and grace, that has always drawn me to them. However, growing up I also loved fashion and interior design. I owe my good taste to my mom who was always been ahead of the times and still has a taste for both fashion and interior spaces. Her sense of style always inspires me! She coveted clothes by Armani, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Donna Karan, Chanel...and many others. My style was born from her love of gorgeous fabrics, style and simple elegance.

On occasion I get the opportunity to photograph a beautiful model or home and decided I wanted to share my love for both with others....Thus Denim & Stone was born!

This is the beautiful Lela Reynolds that I had the pleasure to photograph a few months ago! She is an awesome young lady and a great model.

My goal is to share things I photograph but also to share fashion & interiors that I come across on the web and in magazines....things that I love from a great pair of leather boots to a gorgeous old stone fireplace in a french chateau. (I of course will attempt to always give credit to the photographer or magazine whenever possible.) I also hope to have interviews with fashion photogs, interior designers and other special features.....I hope you will join me!
