Photos by Paul Green

A little while ago I dragged (literally) myself out for a quick photoshoot with Paul Green while he was in London.

Paul takes portraits of interesting characters, and had previously organised a few different shoots in London before (as well as in Berlin), which I couldn't attend. As I was working this day we managed to rush to get ready and head over to his studio, and shot 3 different looks within an hour!

Here's some shots that he's just released, I love them!

Daily Outfit: Burgundy and Gold

 

I've been meaning to get around to actually photographing my day to day outfits, that I wear to work etc. 

My daily style is obviously a lot more toned down than when I'm DJing. Miss Miranda describes it as "Victorian Street Orphan" (thanks :P) - I love to wear dark reds and golds, although I'm trying to put more colours into my wardrobe.

This outfit is fairly simple for a slightly humid rainy day. 

Bodysuit - Hella by Playful Promises

Bra with chain - Opulence by Playful Promises

Jacket - H&M

Skirt - New Look

I put together that "bookcase" out of apple crates... I needed somewhere to display some of my favourite books! 

This weather is great for just wearing jackets/blazers rather than coats, and I've had this jacket for a while. I love the gold stitching.

Red and Gold

I really need to take more outfit shots for this blog!! I dress up at least once a week and never get around to actually taking a photo.

Here's a few shots I took on Saturday, featuring the red Elle Robe from Kiss Me Deadly.

I've also had a bit of a splurge.... but in my defense, the Nearer the Moon piece was bought a few weeks ago and the book was bought in sale!

I'll DEFINITELY take a better photo of this, but my Nearer The Moon fringe dress arrived! I got it in the gold and red colour way, and although it took me a while to figure out how it goes on (I'm really slow...), I'm in love. I'll be wearing it out this weekend, layered over other shiny things! 

I also grabbed the Opulence gold chain set from Playful Promises which arrived in the warehouse today. SO MUCH EXCITEMENT. I might actually end up embellishing this set, because I can never have enough gold.

A few months ago I bought a beautiful hard back, illustrated version of The Master and Margarita from The Folio Society and instantly fell in love. They are currently holding a summer sale, so I couldn't really help myself and ended up buying The Golem. 

Lace and Fur

I keep meaning to take more shots of my daily outfits, but rarely get around to doing so! 

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting and taking a few portraits of Lawrence Gullo, an amazing artist from New York. Later, in the evening, he came with his husband, Fyodor Pavlov (another brilliant artist, who we have commissioned art from before), to our club, The Burning Beat. It was so lovely meeting them!

This is what I wore during the day!
