Almost Reformed

My beautiful friend/model Jen has a look that can be so sweet and yet so mysterious at the same time. I incorporated her half eaten giant birthday cupcake to draw out the sweet side. Using a sexy short vintage flapper dress (H&M) under a vintage blue silk jacket drew out the sexy and mysterious. I couldn’t decide on the shoes so I used two of my top choices a sparkly peep toed flat I purchased while I was in Greece, and a strappy leather heel. The contrast in shoes tells the whole story of the shoot simple and sweet vs. sexy sleek, how’s a girl to decided between the two.

Bright Right

 

So I am totally obsessed with this look! Catherine was amazing to shoot with since she can make any look her own. I love the color content involved in this shoot it’s all over the place, scattered is my organized. I styled with a vintage 80’s blouse and a tutu from the L.A fashion district, with bamboo yellow peep toe pump’s to seal the deal. The idea for the shoot comes from my dream of living in my closet full of colourful items and pretty pieces.

Patterns&Things

 

It’s funny when you put an outfit together how you can sometimes feel a distant gap between you and the materials, and other times an instant click. A sort of intensity only felt when finding a true friend. There could be a million choices yet none could compare to the honesty a true friend can hold. This look is that chemistry to my artistic side, the textures of the FCUK jean bustier, ruffed against a vintage sweater tank all held upon a silk floral undergarment (H&M), may leave the mass confused, but lead me into my happy place.

Thats Hot

 

This outfit is the right temperature of sexy chic. I put Catherine in a lacy one piece paired with pleather hot pants and finished the look with a vintage wool blazer. The picture was taken amongst a few of my favourite pictures of Toronto annex area, and looking outward towards the downtown streets of Winnipeg. A metaphor of what I love and where I’m from.

Sweet Darling

 

I had fun shooting this style with my model/friend Jen, she really makes anything look amazing! The top is from a small boutique in Winnipeg HUSH clothing. The shoes are another one of my favourite finds from the L.A. Fashion District. I used an H&M dress as a vest on this style. The look pronounces a strong youth like beauty with a sexy sweetness.

Stripes&Solids

 

I came upon this colourful striped mini in the crowded alleys of the fashion district a favourite spot of mine in L.A. The vest was a purchase I made as a fashion student. It was initially used as a curving device to calm my worn and weary mind. A genuine leather M.N.G collection was just what the doctor ordered.
The two paired together are a simply kind of crazy.

Lace&Fur

 

Contrast is my favourite element when styling. In this particular shoot my contrast of choice was made between two of my favourite materials lace and faux fur. Lace being furs tame to wild.
