AN AUTUMN SHOOT

A few weeks ago a friend contacted me and asked if i would take her photos for her Make up assignments. Of course i said yes! I really want to get as many fashion/beauty shots as i can as theres really where i want to specialise. I really am in love with it, not as in a girly girl way so that means of course i love it. Especially when i see editorial photography my eyes just light up and i have a little buzz inside of me. So anyway, back to the photos! Her first assignment is i think called Autumn and is mainly about the hair and of course to do with Autumn. She got her friend to model for her, who i think has a gorgeous colour of hair that really matches this assignment! It goes so well with the colours of Autumn. I edited them with an orangey tinge to match the theme and the season. I also helped with the styling, the cardi, glasses and bag are mine. I hope you all like them! Im so proud of them because its my first time ever taking photos for someone and doing something a bit fashioney and beauty wise. Plus ive grown in so much confidence in using photoshop now. Please give me any feedback aswell. So here they are! Dont for get to like my photography page on facebook!

TAKE ME TO HARD ROCK BECAUSE I HAVE SPIKES ON MY BOOTS

Hey everyone, sorry i havent posted in a while! The wireless has been down because (maybe some of you have the same problem) virgin media are having issues at the moment. Which is really really annoying and to be honest virgin is crap. They do not have the best connection! We are always having problems with our internet... We have an internet wire atm so i have currently plugged my macbook into router. Plus my head has been so full of college work aswell. Ive just been having doubts im not good enough or im not going to be able to pass! But im sure i will everyone has negativity creep into their minds. I am pretty on top of things at college though, i have all my research done for all the subjects now i just need to focus on getting my photos. I know what kind of photos i want aswell so im not really in that much of a bad position! Soon i promise ill do a photography post but like i said my heads so full of things and i have photos from the summer ive STILL to go through and edit and what not if they need small touches.

So apart form having no internet and worrying about college work ive been keeping myself bust with keeping on top of washing, which is such a pain in the colder months but i have gotten myself into a pretty good routine this year. Plus ive been cooking some awesome meals aswell. I really do love cooking, its definitely one of my hobbies and ive never really expressed that on my blog before. But i have decided that also i am going to start posting about what i cook, take photos and maybe explain how i do it. The way i cook i dont follow rules or measurements its just guest work! But it seems to have been working so far so im not changing it lol :P I might make it a feature the same way i am doing with Chris picking my outfits, what do you guys think? Would you like to see it as a feature once a week or just a regular thing i post about from time to time?

So this is what i wore about 2 weeks ago, ive been wanting to wear these DIY spiked boots for a while but ive been ever so nervous about the spikes falling off! And because of that i sort of walk funny in them... Towards the end of the day though i was walking fine. THe annoying thing was id walked so carefully in them ALL DAY and i then actually kick one off with my other foot! What a pain. I copied this idea form a brand called KANDEE, at the time i didnt have the money to get their pair even in the sale! I really love Hard Rock Cafe aswell, i go whenever there is one in the area and i really love this skirt so i tough it would all go! Tbh my inspiration for this outfit is because the top and skirt were hanging together on the washing rack! I though it would look quite cool adding something a bit darker and rocky to the skirt aswell. Chris did actually get me this skirt in the sale for £6! I loved it when i seen it so he just picked it up and bought it for me bless him.

Skirt- New Look

Boots- New Look

Spikes- Cant remember google it

Top- Hard Rock Cafe Orlando

Bag- New York

Jacket- Topshop

MY FIANCE PICKED MY OUTFIT 1)

A few posts ago (2 or 3) i mentioned that i was going to get Chris to pick an outfit for me once or twice a month as a feature on my blog. So today i thought i would give it ago. He is quite good to be honest, he knows my style and hes really really good at picking out things i like. The presents he got me from New York were fantastic, you've all seen the green polka dot dress, but ive yet to show the best one. But im saving that for another time to show you all! The dress im wearing here aswell Chris bought me! :) I went to try somethng on in the shop and he sneaked away and when i came back he d bought it!

Rules- So what the plan is for this is whatever he picks, which is everything clothes to bags and shoes i will HAVE to wear. Not a bad plan right? I can give little hints like, if i want to wear a dress or an outfit that includes heels but that is it. Like today, i really wanted to wear heels because ive been wearing alot of flats at the moment due to college and comfyness. But i have total faith in him! He really is good and i kind of just want to show him off a little :P

Today me and Chris went out for lunch to TGI's so the outfit went pretty well for the occasion. We weren't at college today as we're off on a Tuesday, Wednesday and a Thursday afternoon so its pretty easy going! Means you can work and rest which is a goos way of doing. Means we can work really hard for a day or two then have a few days off to rest or get on with any work.
