Old Schools

Here in Texas we call older cars "old schools".  An old school is a car that you dress up with rims and other car accessories.  We have a tradition here in Texas for people who own old schools and the others that are smitten with them. On Sundays people like to "swang", swanging is driving really slow concurrent with swerving in a line of other old schools.  I find it a bit obnoxious, but I do enjoy looking at the different cars.  It's reminds me of looking at Christmas lights, only at this tradition the only thing shining is the gold grills amongst the participants.

 I decided to do something new and fresh. I tried an old Hollywood glamour look for this shoot and it was so much fun.
