Edinburgh Summer 2011

London Summer 2011

As you can see I decided to go Blonde for the first time in my life. I am really loving the new hair.

Here's a song I wrote the other day. It's called the final chapter of my heart, inspired by a few things, mostly some personal memories that still remain with me after a few years. The singing is not perfect and I'm recording it with a guitar accompaniment soon. 

Photoshoot 2010

Here are the most recent pictures I took of a friend back in late 2010 when I purchased my lighting equipment.I think she has the most captivating eyes and so we wanted to keep the focus around them and highlight and exaggerate their grey/blue hues with some metallic silver and blue eye makeup.

Photoshoot - 2010

hese are some photos I took a while back with a friend. I had the inspiration to create a look which was really simple but classy and elegant at the same time. No real colour palette makeup wise - good foundation and a very limited amount of concealer around the eyes was key for the blemish free appearance, the rest was simply black eyeliner and mascara.

This is a fun photoshoot I did with a good friend of mine back when I had darker hair. He's also really into fashion. I brought some of my favourite items of clothing along and we tried a few things, mixing and matching sometimes. He has this gorgeous Ralph Lauren grey jacket which you can see in the pictures with the black dress and heels. The other outfits are ones I chose in advance before the shoot - those were some of my favourite looks at that time. I am hoping to do another shoot with him sometime soon.. so watch this space...haha  

make do bun/everything that glitters

This is a very popular look that I try to pull off all the time, especially for school as it keeps the hair off my face but still looks fairly stylish and cute. Personally, I think simple alicebands/headbands allow people to show off their features- it draws attention to bold eyes (with black liquid eyeliner) statement bright lips and perfect skin (using a matt foundation and concealer under the eyes)  to give a really fresh glow to the face.  I thought I would display it incase anyone wants to try it.

 These are two pictures I took before going out to dinner with some friends. As you can see  (silver sequinned top from and jeggings, both from topshop and some black ankle boots), most of my clothes are not patterned but are either black, white or one block colour because firstly I think classic colours ie. black and white are timeless (mostly as I absolutely adore Chanel's black and white dress suits) and secondly, patterns do not favour my body.
