the best of Balmain.









so back to blogging about my wonderful day yesterday at the shoot...

my ever so kind entourage took me all the way to the location even though they were tired and sleepy from the night before, thanks guys!! i was so excited to meet Victoria, who i met thru the wonderful world of ModePass. 

today's role check:
Photographer; Victoria Rika-Heke
Model; Tara Hurster
Designer & Stylist; Maie Dionisio
Hair & Make-Up; Stephanie Sweetman
Assistant; Julie Zhu

we were lucky enough to get some beautiful natural lighting coming thru the studio, Tara looked like a goddess in the middle of it all. my most favourite shoot of the day was probably the 'studio clutter' one. in the pink Maiden dress accompanied by the thrifted boots, gloves and hat Victoria found at her local op shop. absolutely divine!

i think Tara had the most fun with the last scene, with her Madame outfit. Victoria got her down and dirty, as well as jumping around everywhere. we didn't get to do the teal outfit in the lounge room scene because we ran out of time. but all in all the day was a success. i can't wait for the end result!...

sundays best.






i had so much fun on our Balmain shoot today with photographer Victoria Rikaheke. i'll post up some prep pics for now and save the goodies for tomorrow when i'm not so tired. the studio was amazing, it was a prop haven!...

lady in pink.




i have so many orders to do, i really need to keep on top of things with significant events coming up, like the photo shoot with Victoria, label launch and Glebe markets of course.

i spent a hot Saturday night starting on this dress. i couldn't decide on a particular style, so i posted all three. you choose...

isn't she lonely...


i haven't been able to do much lately since my overlocker got sick =(
i've been having to french seam everything, which makes sewing 10x longer to do!

i made a mess, and i call it art.



you'll never guess what this is... these are the clippings from my material. in no shape or form did i alter them, it just happened to fall onto the table like this. the first i call "the lonely rose". and the second, "heart in a box".

boring tuesdays.


i just like to take photos of anything now, while i'm bored. my room looks so messy from this angle. *contemplates on cleaning*...

old time treasures.



i do love a good find in my local Vinnie's store. ive been looking at this book for weeks now, and today i finally decided to buy it. it's so awesome, it even has an inscription from the 1980's, how sweet. i shall now invest in a nostalgic bookcase.
