Nail Care – How to keep your claws classy whilst modelling

April 23, 2018April 17, 2018Leave a comment

As important as skincare is for modelling, you can't forget to look after your fingernails. As lots of models pose with their hands near their face, it is essential to make sure your claws are well looked after. I remember a two week period where I almost had a shoot everyday. Each shoot was a … Continue reading Nail Care – How to keep your claws classy whilst modelling

Monthly Outfit Recap – March

April 20, 2018April 17, 20182 Comments

March was a very intense month. It was the month I worked on my website in secret and had heaps of shoots booked. It was the month I ramped up my health and fitness but also wore some pretty groovy outfits.

  Las Fridas Photographic Exhibition “From Painter to socialist to fashion icon, Frida Kahlo was celebrated both during her lifetime and decades later after her legacy gave birth to a new generation of Mexican artists”.

Sometimes it's scary how well Google knows you and what you like to buy. At the end of last year I kept getting recommended this Acorn Rattan bag from @olliella and you bet ya bottom I loved it. Google knew I would want a bag designed for children for myself. Ah, well played Google, well played.
This weekend was all about recovering from my recent operation but it gave me time to start planning my next vintage ghibli sewing project.
When dressing in the vintage style, many of us feel the pressure to style ourselves in a way to suit. Red lips and curled hair become iconic for vintage styling but for people like me, styling my hair can be a bit of a challenge.
When I was a kid, I went through a pretty strong Hello Kitty phase. My entire desk was covered in every piece of Hello Kitty stationery I could get my hands on, much of which I still have today. The new collection from @erstwilder with @hellokitty made my nine year old self squeal with joy! Oh and of course @miss.vintage.orchid is also Hello Kitty obsessed!

This little bunny wants to wish you all a wonderful and safe Easter.
When you watch one too many 80s films right before an Easter shoot. Bette Midler would be proud 💚
Be honest, how often do you wash your foam/sponge curlers? I try to wash mine at least once a month as I use multiple times a week. They can start to look a bit gross and sad if you don't keep them clean.
Have you ever procrastinated so hard that years go by and you still haven't done the thing you set out to do? Well, that happened to me; for over two and a half years I have wanted to create a mini-series on my blog (and now YouTube) where I take my favourite Studio Ghibli films and characters and turn them into a vintage version of themselves.
Self care is the best kind of care 💙
