Fashion Show Looks 6-10

August 16, 2010 1:20 pm

I can’t beleive I’ve forgotten to show you the rest of my fashion show. So here it is !

Look6: (my other sister modeling)

Round 1- This is a cocktail dress I made hand dyed in a gradient grey. It’s paired with grey sued flats and a leather sued bag by Nuala.

It’s the only pic I have of this one!

Look 8

Round 1- Thirfted lace top, black poofy skirt, cuff by Nuala and black heels

Round 2- necklace by Stipe, leather belt by Nuala(You have got to see closeups of this when I get them. It’s GORGEOUS!), grey socks and we reversed the skirt so the tulle showed.

Round 3- switched to a white tank and added ballerina socks

Look 7

There wasn’t any great consecutive shots of this on the runway so I though I’d share with you this picture that Paul Ferraddas took after the show in about two minutes. How amazing is this shot?!!

And I had to show you all the detail in the back, too, because it’s my favorite part. This one took a looong time!

(This dress is for sale)

Look 9

Round 1,2- I HAD to have a corchet dress in the show. I don’t know what it was. But the girls at Stripe found me this old one. It was very victorian to begin with. So I restructured it to create something more relevant. I don’t have a picture for look 1, but itw as without the socks and chains. We added those for round 2.

Round 3- I made this big poofy sleeve out of a vintage pieces of fabric. We changed the shoes and added more gold jewelry.

(this dress is for sale)

Look 10 (also my sister)

Round 1- This was my finale dress. I made it then hand dyed it in a gradient lilac. You can barely see, there is a small gathering at the hip, just like the one in look 6. e have it paired with a suede bag by Nuala and gold sandals.

Round 2- Horrible phone picture, but what we did was add a jeweled bustle by Stripe.

Round 3- No pictures, but it had a yellow petticoat made by the owner of Stripe, Suna and gold heels.

Oddly enough, I’ve sold 3 of these dresses. I thought this would be the last one to sell because it’s so fancy!

Fall Fashion- Part 3

August 10, 2010 7:32 am

You’ve all seen my long skirt before. We used it for the shoot for an evening look. I paired it with a classic button up blouse. It’s one more reason why I love a great white blouse. It can be so casual with jeans or dress up a high waisted skirt.

I’m sorry. There’s a lot of pictures. I just couldn’t decide which ones to show you all! I loved them all. These are the kind of pictures that make me want that outfit and make me want to be wherever she is and do whatever she’s doing.

This one was in the magazine but it was in black and white so it lost it’s great feel.

Check out Nuala‘s cuff. She gets her leather cuffs then adds vintage pieces on them. It’s one of my favorite accessories.

More fall fashion to come tomorrow!

More Boot Love- SOLD

August 9, 2010 1:09 pm

Since my last “sharing the boot love” was so successful, I thought I’d give it another go. I found these and fell in love with them. They had some weird strappys all over them so I took them off and now they are just perfect, slouchy, cognac leather boots.

I love the wooden heel and the rivet detail around the sole.

They look gorgeous with jeans.

If you like them, head on over to my etsy shop to check them out!

Fall Fashion Edition- Part Two

August 6, 2010 8:57 am

Ok, moving on! Here’s the second look we did for each model.

(Follow down for giveaway information!)

For whatever reason, this is totally one of my favorites. Clare is wearing a Mr. Larkin Thea top, Monrow black heather fleece shorts, Nuala leather watch, Donni Charm scarf, Target tights, vintage motorcycle boots.

I love these shorts. I WANT these shorts!

Here’s a close up of the Donni Charm scarf in coral and the amazing Nuala watch, just like mine.

Dez is wearing my Lex Striped Top, Level 99 pants wide leg pants, a Blank Verse necklace, and August Mae rings.

Here it is with my transforming wool cape. You can really see the August Mae rings well, here!

I love it hooded, too!

Look at the detail on this Blank Verse necklace!

I can’t wait to do a post on Gina Bokariza, the hair stylist from Urban Groove. She transformed each look and made it unbelievable! More on that to come.
