Noir Venom

Hi! So we decided to play around with our camera lately and try to attempt to broaden our photography skills. The idea was to achieve the 'studio' look we often see in magazines. It's not quite a 'studio' photography, considering I made this in our kitchen using white cloth as a background, although I gotta admit I was surprised how good they came out. Being a graphic designer I played around with the grayscale and typography to achieve the look we aimed for in our initial concept. The idea behind the photos tackles the perception of sinfulness and purity as well as explores the study of elegance in nude photography. Justine posed and styled, I shot and edited. Hope you guys like it!

A Relationship With The Sublime

Yesterday we decided to go to Westfield in order to look for some christmas presents. Christmas, in all its coziness, always reminds me of the whole palette of reds and golds so with all the cheerfulness of the occasion I decided to go for the look arranged of those colours. Also, here you can see the bag of our design that I am very proud of! :) For those having an account on lookbook - you can hype my look by clicking the banner below the photos. I'd appreciate that. Thanks!

J's Halloween Look 2013

Yes, I know I'm late. Halloween is already behind us and I got so busy at the time I couldn't find a spare moment to post it. But better late then never! This year I went for the sort of a twist of a Wednesday Addams x Pin Up girl x 60's spooky librarian mix that eventually made me look like a sort of dark version of Lana Del Rey (which I totally don't mind haha). I used La Riche Directions turquoise hair dye and I absolutely loved the effect! For those of you interested in achieving pastel shade I recommend doing what I did - don't put the paste directly onto your hair, try mixing it with hair conditioner instead, in 20% paste - 80% conditioner ratio. You'll get a nice strong pistachio shade. You can always add up more paste later on if you prefer stronger shade. I also used black lipstick from MAC - it spreads brilliantly and covers lips nicely for a long time, definitely worth recommending! The studded headband is from Call It Spring for £3, and earrings are from H&M for £7 + I found this bow neck dress in second hand for as little as £7. Putting everything altogether and voilà! I'm ready to party. Hope you like it!
