 For its 40th Birthday

W Magazine has taken 4 loved starlets

and have given them an exciting, different makeover

for their November Cover.

Keira Knightley, Scarlett Johansson, Mia Wasikowska and Rooney Mara were each styled by Edward Enninful to epitomize a different fashion decade

My fav, obviously, would HAVE

to be Miss Scarlett.

She looks KILLER!

Boho Ballerina Fashion Editorial

Boho Ballerina...

...............................................

... So for those of you who follow my Pintrest, you'd
see that I've added in an extra board this week - "Dance".

I've done dancing most of my life and this has always been a huge
passion for me. Often I come across gorgeous ballet photography
online and NOW, I have a special place to "pin" all of them.

I came across this fashion slash ballet editorial today and
thought I'd share since it is so unique and pretty.

Shot by photographer Joachim Johnson for 

The Amanda Norgaard Smug Magazine,
this very gritty and real representation of a dancer is just so raw and beautiful.
With styling by by April Johnson, the model is adorned with light-weight garments including
knits, lace and fur along with the nude bodysuits, this entire shoot has a very
bohemian feel about it and I just love it... The photos seem to get up close
and personal. Simply stunning.

Don't forget to go check out my new Pintrest board
over here, and enjoy these gorgeous images!

Milou Sluis with Pink Hair! - ODDA MAG Cover

Milou Sluis ...

...............................................................................

... it's not very often I write up about a model, in fact one of the only ones I ever seem to mention is Charlotte Free, but that's totally understandable ;)

Now I'm not bringing up Milou Sluis just because of how gorgeously delicious she looks in ODDA Magazine with her pink Free-like hair and seductive eyes, but because she genuinely caught my attention in a couple of pics and campaigns I've seen lately and after coming across this ODDA Mag insert, I thought okay, it's time to post this betch up!

PIC from Ulla Models

NOTE TO SELF : Pastel Hair is still DEFINITELY in....!!
This Ulla Models' girl has been making waves recently... Especially with her very 

WildFox - esque appearance in ODDA. She looks stunning, fresh and MOD in Versace!! I LOVE the garments in this shoot and her pink hair and milky skin only add to the entire shoot. SUCH gorgeous and inspiring stuff!

We LOVE the studs, we LOVE the slits, LOVE the colours and LOVE the little pale blue bustier...

Check out the pics from ODDA below and keep your eye peeled for more interesting appearances from Milou Sluis!

Enjoy

A Fashion Friend - Expose

A Fashion Friend - Expose...

..............................................

... Well hello there. Let me first start this post by introducing to you a brilliant locally created
online fashion Magazine type module called A Fashion Friend.
I am constantly on there, browsing and looking through all the great stuff they feature and explore...

Their newest issue, actually released today, holds a shoot called Expose,
which I think brilliantly summarizes quite a few current A/W trends...

Firstly, I love this striking shoot... Anything black and white always catched my eye ;) Avron and Chloe (the photographer and stylist for this shoot) found old newspapers from the 40's and 50's one day and hence found their muse for this shoot...

" It's a pity how cluttered and undramatic the newspapers are today, everything seemed

so much more animated back then. We kept everything monochrome because we wanted her to be a part of the background, like she'd stepped out of the front page. We called it Exposé 

beacuse it was almost as if she had been exposed. " 

 

- Chloe

This shoot is a pretty cool mix of all that is fun this winter:

Thigh-high stockings
Houndstooth, Polka Dots, Stripes and Leopard Prints
Fur
Printed stockings
Collars
and my fav ... printed striking graphic tees!

Well done to those involved:

Photography - Avron

Styling and Design - Chloe Andrea 

(my cousin... yes, see how the fashion flair runs

 in the family ;) go check out her portfolio over here!!)

Concept and Art direction - Avron and Chloe Andrea

Mua- Nandi Fourie

Model- Nikita Stallbom from Boss

Enjoy the images and don't forget to go look at all the other fashiony bits in their newest issue over here ;)
