A week and a bit of craziness

It's been an insane week and a half, and I'm ridiculously disappointed that I haven't had a chance to post anything. Fashion Palette, which I attended on the 1st and 2nd of May was not quite what I had expected, but I had an amazing outfit, styled by the fantabulous Lenya Jones which I will be posting up soon (when I can find my missing memory card) and last Sunday I had an awesome shoot with the gorgeous Olga Bokalova modeling the Autumn/Winter range for PenelopeRED.

There are not enough good things that I can say about these two ladies. Penelope had emailed me photos of her clothing, and I thought I knew what to expect, but nothing could prepare me for the way they looked in real life and the impeccable taste and design this lady exudes. I think that I have come out of this shoot wanting even more of her clothing and have to figure out which outfits I want exactly so I can at least narrow it down a little bit. Penelope is certainly a rare type of designer. A lot of her outfits are one-offs made from vintage fabrics, so you can guarantee that you will never have to worry about someone having the same outfit as you. The make-up artist for the shoot was Nat Biller who I have had the pleasure of working with a few times now, and who did a fantastic job on the make-up despite being quite ill.

Now, enough about that. Here are the photos.
