Description
This is a PREVIEW image.Model:ME.
-Hair, Makeup, Vest, Styling, Jewelry all created by Me.
For this shoot, I redid a blazer to make the vest, did my own hair, makeup, and everything but the shorts and lace band (under the vest) are mine. The purse is my grandmothers.
Collar:
-Metal, oxydized, band, level on one side, curved on the other. Double gothic victorian silver stampings layered above a black grossgrain ribbon that expands across the entire width of the collar, and sit below a set faceted glass jet gemstone. A string of clear gray faceted glass beads are hand-linked and strung between two silver fleur-de-lis button and flanked by a thick silky black braided accent ribbon. Each side is held by a thick, textured silver rollo chain, drilled and hooked into the collar itself, reaching around the neck to an ornate silver floral, hook-and-eye clasp. The entire collar is lined by black royal velvet to provide by comfort and stability.
Earrings:
-Jet and ivory cameos are set on a round connector and pressed upon an intricate antique silver stamping, and surrounded by textured silver rollo chain. Post attachments.

Gemma Ward? You mean that shoot I posted a month or so ago? Gemma was only in two of those shots. The rest were all of Sasha Pivavarova.

I guess you're gonna be angry at me, but I don't like this one... Well, the pose is wonderful, I've already commented plenty about the outfit. It's just that the expression on your face doesn't work for me, here...
I guess you've noticed I love expressions and that's probably what I'll look at first on a shot... I've got used of you having fantastic expressions, at least, I've got used of loving them. Seeing you expressionless... Well, I've gotta say I don't like it, but that is maybe because I'm used to seeing a lot of expression on your portraits...
hope you don't take that comment the wrong way :/

These are all really lovely pictures.
I really like the collar and outfit.. But I must admit, that when I saw it for the first time, the song, "Who Wears Short Shorts?" Popped in my head. x3;
But the pictures, as I said, are really awesome. ~wishesshecouldmodeltoo~ <3

ROFL!!!! yes, short short riding up the rear short!! They were so tight >.<
Modeling is HARD dear, it may look easy in the magazines, but it isnt, you have to practice a lot.
If you saw my earlier work you would probably think I was joking about it being the same person.
Its not all just pose and click, you have to have a good feel for your body and facial expressions, and
its a never-ending learning process!

I apparently used to model when I was a kid, but since then, I haven't. Haha

Don't know really. Lack of connections I guess?

Understandable, connections are almost everything!

Oh wow, you made EVERYTHING?! The vest, the jewelry, it all looks great!
I like how the shoulder pads (?) are like the edges of drapes.

Yup! Thats why Im so proud of these shots. The vest was originally a blazer the I cut up, sewed and added fringe to. It was a bit time consuming but looks just like what we were going for. I cant wait to put some detailed shots of the jewelry up here though because all I have are small shots like this -_-;;
