shoot season begins ! starts with Vintage

hellow all..... today 5th september.....so i am a bit mad at the whether because all my warm clothes were packed away and now i have to go climb a ladder just to get them again - its cold !! aghh man - september is my birthday month and its supposed to be warm and bright - like me heheh.
Yesterday was yet another successful shoot - lovely Millicent - owner of SPUNK designs graced us with her fabulousness and dressed our girl who was in desperate need of a young and fresh look.  Pity i didnt snap some pics from her before look cause i swear you would have agreed with me that she looked 10years older than 20 - but on the pic here after SPUNK's magical touch - she really does look 20 - well maybe 22 hehe...she better not read this. My skirt and brooch is by  http://rags2lace.tumblr.com/page/2

so last night i was excited to be shooting - but for a reason I will reveal later...i was extremely tired and couldnt wait for the shoot to just finish.  The boyz behind the cameras did well with time and i reminded myself to be controlled and to not scream and shout the whole shoot through.....i am trying to conquor the urge to get things done my way and as fast as i prefer.....lol.  Mmm, i think i did my best yesterday.

Anyway - my comment on the main event is that we did manage to dress up the girl who loves vintage to look more vintage.....it was a simple transformation but i think the colours worked great - i loved the bag....she looked like a blust from the past for sure - she also quite pretty...

Thanks to our stylist....nthabi....who goes around collecting vintage and has hundreds of these pieces in her house - she helped us with the our guest - here are the pics ! 

My dress is my on but the neck-piece is by http://rags2lace.tumblr.com/page/2 ! contact them for gorgeous vintage

the polka!

i am loving polka dots.....made this dress for my sister and everyone adored her !

excited !!

Hi blog family ! so the past week has been a week of gettting used to my very short hair !  i am loving it so.....quite interesting are the comments from people - they love it but they still ask you ....."but why did you cut your long hair"   Well, i dont for a moment believe that long relaxed hair defines "woman"  Especially as a black girl, i actually really love wearing my hair short and natural.....Now am hoping it will grow into a nice afro!

Anyway, this past week i have also made a beautiful polka dotted dress for a "client"  Am loving polka dots - i will post the pic in the new week when its done & dusted......The trend seems to be the bold stripes and polka dots (especially a mix of different size dots...) you will see what I mean on the pic i will send.....

I also am falling in love with Retro - loving the brooch - look at my pic above - me spotting one by Rags2Lace.tumblr.com  -  !  i love the difference it makes - if you are not big on bold colour outfits - you can wear the safe color dresses, jackets, blousers and just add a very great colour brooch - it makes a million yards difference !  God bless you 'll and keep visiting

the weekend's success

flu.......terrible,....but am glad the weekend was a success... i designed my dress and wore it well at one of the events
