OTR Captured & Washington Park Love

    While enjoying our city's lovely new park last night, I spotted this ADORABLE girl with her dad and had to get their picture. She was the coolest little hipster I have ever seen...Seriously, how cute is she?! And her dad is obviously equally as hip- must be where she gets it from ;)

   If you have not yet checked out Washington Park be sure to do so- it is truly amazing. It's one of those things you have to see & experience to fully appreciate. Last night the weather was perfect and the park was filled with people. Here's what I saw as I took it all in: park benches filled with people lining the bandstand as the pleasant tunes of the night's concert enchanted all; blankets casing the green revealing quaint picnic spreads; children everywhere: laughing, running, playing and taking sheer delight in the fountain's unpredictable spouts; friends seeing old friends, meeting their friends, making new friends; faces filled with joy, reflecting a great sense of appreciation & pride...as when you look around it completely sets in: this amazing park is ours...in our revitalized, rising, cool city.

***the City Flea is at the park this Saturday which I am totally excited for. So much happening in OTR, love. Come share in the experience!

OTR Street Style

Hope everyone had a great 4th of July whether it was total relaxation mode OR action-packed. Our OTR rooftop has a pretty badass view of the fireworks so that was pretty cool to take in both nights. Speaking of OTR..... I am working on a cool project & event with some super talented people that will be revealed in a couple weeks or so. In preparation for this, we are doing a piece called "OTR Captured" in which we {photo} capture fashion-forward individuals in OTR. There is an insane amount of eclectic style in our neighborhood...from the residents, individuals who work at the local hot spots, and those who frequent OTR. It is just oh-so-good style watching {much like people watching but with a STRONG focus on clothing + accessories}. I'll be posting each of these pictures on the blog, so be sure to check in as often as your free time {or escaping-from-job time} allows....these style highlights from OTR will surely grab your attention.

For more glimpses into what's in store for this event along with our amazing city-themed graphics (as seen above), follow Cincinnatus Kidd on Facebook.

First up, is this freakin' ADORABLE gal spotted in OTR's Sloane Boutique....seriously, how cool is her look?
