It's not every Sunday a girl gets to have her hair crimped in the chilly basement of a Northern Quarter, but this wasn't just any old Sunday. I spent all day dressed up, dressed down and directed in the downstairs of Soup Kitchen for an Oxfam Originals photoshoot.
The hard work was done by others, including outfit styling by Lauren Reyhani and makeup expertly applied by Katy Brody (even though I started twitching as soon as she sharpened her eyeliner pencil). The images above are just quick snaps, but Proper Photos taken by a Proper Photographer will follow at some point in the future.
My favourite look is the white suit at top right. Combined with the French plaits it's giving off a Liz-Lemon-dressed-as-Princess-Leia-vibe, don't you think?


fantastic! I love the long dress.
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing! x
ReplyDeletehow cool is that, what was it for then?
ReplyDeleteWow you look fantastic Jacky! Love all the different looks and your crimped hair! On Saturday afternoon I had the pleasure of relieving Northern Quarter Oxfam Originals of an amazing bright red full length cape! The label spoke of little red riding hood but I was going for more of a King Arthur/Knights of the Round Table/Morgan Le Fay before she turns evil kind of a look! I wore it to a family party on Sunday and got some right looks walking through my home town at 3 o'clock on a Sunday afternoon, a bright red cape billowing behind me. But I love it. I can always find something unique in Oxfam Originals, and I'm so glad that I spent my £20 there instead of Cow or Blue Rinse etc because I know it's actually going to a good cause.
ReplyDeleteThat does rock, but the last two are awesome! I love the dress look--your hairstyle being especially extra-awesome, and the light blue shirt outfit is really great, too.
ReplyDeleteWow, you look gorgeous, you have the frame that is perfect for those clothes, I love the looks. =)
