“Your jacket looks like weed leaves.”
“My jacket is weed leaves.”
Yes, this conversation happened while checking out of PCC Natural Market. I’ve received so much feedback on my Alexander Wang weed coat, I figured it was high time I feature this as a Fashion Friday post.
It’s Weed Wednesday! What better way to celebrate than by sharing photos of Washington’s Best Indoor Grow? House of Cultivar invited me to visit their facility after sitting in front of their enthusiastic team at the 2017 DOPE Awards and I couldn’t say no.
I toured this lovely Tier 3 operation located in SoDo. Before even passing their grow, I could smell the dankness. We started our visit in the genetics lab, veg rooms and the extensive mother’s room. House of Cultivar preserves all their genetics, which is evident in their strain selections. Purple Punch, Chocolate Hashberry and Confidential Kush are just a few of Washington’s favorites.
It's my last Fashion Friday of 2017 and I'm going out with one DOPE dress. I wore this stunning Reformation wrap gown to the DOPE Awards where I won Social Media Influencer of the Year. But before the awards, I obviously needed to photograph it, and what better facility than the fabulous Falcanna?
Upon hearing of my nomination I scoured the Internet for dresses. No joke, I spent hours looking for the perfect gown. I chose this Reformation dress for several reasons. First, it's green. Second, the plunging neckline and wrap style would do wonders for my hourglass figure. Most importantly, however, I chose this dress because of the company's commitment to responsible manufacturing.
75K LAPTOP GIVEAWAY!
I cannot believe I’ve hit 75k on Instagram under two years. As my way to say thanks, I want to give away a 13″ Acer laptop. But this isn’t just any laptop, it’s the laptop I won on The Price is Right!
What’s a girl do after 21 inches of fresh powder at Mt Baker? Apres ski smoke sesh!
I went up to Mt Baker last weekend for a winter wonderland adventure with my boyfriend (yes, you read that right) and couldn’t have asked for better conditions. 21 inches of freshies meant a) an epic day on the slopes and b) an epic afternoon for photos.
While Vegas as known as the City of Sin, we turned it into paradise with Ladies of Paradise. I had the pleasure of photographing the babes behind it while in town for MJ Biz.
Ladies of Paradise is a Portland-based vintage site curated by the uber stylish Jade and Harlee. Their shop is full of favorite picks from international travels. Sequins, fur, fringe and beads — these ladies have it all.
“Hey Bess, how do you always get such awesome photos? Do you like, roll around with a team of photographers?”
I received that question last week and while I don’t always “roll with a team” I do have a ton of talented photographer friends. We got together a while back for a Seattle weed meet, to blaze it up and shoot around town.
Sure I’m wearing all black for Black Friday, but I keep it green with Creatures of the Wind. I fell in love with their recent Capsule Collection after seeing it at Marley Natural’s colette pop-up in Paris.
Shane Gabier and Chris Peters of Creatures of the Wind created the line in conjunction with System magazine’s weed issue. Vintage shirts, sweatshirts and jackets feature hand-drawn cannabis embroidery. When I saw this one-of-a-kind USA shirt, I knew it was a match made in fashion heaven.

Remember the dress I purchased for my cousin’s wedding? You know, the one I forgot to pack? Well this is it — a vibrant yellow, chiffon Show Me Your Mumu dress!
Now normally I wouldn’t stress about forgetting a dress, but this isn’t just any dress and I didn’t purchase it for just any wedding. My cousin recently married a woman whose grandfather served as the President of Mexico. Wedding attire called for formal, and I wanted to branch out from my all black everything.
