Inspiring The Uninspired

I am STILL not a very busy person, which means until the beginning of February when univeristy startes I have nothing to blog about, which is an awful excuse I guess. I have bought some amazing items of clothes recently, and finally got round to purchasing a new film camera (Olympus Trip 35) so am all set up to do some work with those. I am thinking about videoing daily outfits, or maybe just doing some videos in general as it's something I want to look into more. I have some DIY clothes projects I want to do before I go to Berlin, so hopefully will start those...when I can be bothered. I AM SO LAZY. ERGH.

Anyway, to keep you going in the mean time, here are a few things that have caught my eye over the past week or so.

Finger tattoos

Lana Del Rey + collage = perfection

Double exposures

Monochrome and cutouts

Abbey Lee Kershaw

Sheer clothing

A glimpse of the most amazing dress that I bought

Maxis with thigh high splits

Editorial Selection

So I said i'd post the final three images for the editorial piece of my project. After much deliberation, involving me, my sister and my mum staring at a table full of photos and analysing every aspect possible, we decided on the final ones.

I wanted two portrait images and one landscape to make things a bit more interesting, and I am really pleased with the ones we picked. Together the images look great and really drive home the atmoshphere and feel of the photoshoot. When I put all the text in and design I will post those, but for now, here they are.

Make-up tests

So, as I said, here are the make-up tests for the shoot I have planned. The theme is quite dark and underground, so I was experimenting with dip-dye hair, dark and dark lips. I tried red and purple lips (to match the hair) and really liked how both looks came out. For the actual shoot I am going to go with purple lips as I feel they bring out the colour in the hair.
