I apologise for the lack of updates in the recent weeks, I’ve been very busy shooting photos, not the street fashion kind, but for various personal creative projects. I promise I’ll get out and bring you more stylish street fashion in the coming weeks, I promise ; )
For now, you can have a look at Mary. I shot her today for one of my various personal creative projects and the outfit she arrived in was fantastic, so I had to also shoot her for street fashion afterwards.
Such a cute outfit, it’s something I’d dress my blythe doll in, it would never work for me, but certainly looks great on Mary.
When I was asked to shoot the series for H&M magazine, I almost panicked, fearing I won’t be able to get many stylish people on the streets of Sydney, at least not to the standard of say The Sartorialist and Facehunter. So in my panic, I asked Emma whom I’ve photographed once before, if she would like to put together an outfit for me. She did not disappoint me, I love her sense of style and the way she puts a whole bunch of things together and it just works! Shame these photos won’t grace the pages of H&M mag. Oh well, at least I get to share them with everyone now.

Ali’s ex bought her the dress 2 years ago from Peel, I was quite surprised, considering maxi weren’t in fashion then and this dress looks great right now.
