"SCARFING IT UP"
Wednesday, July 15, 2015
So...She's back on my blog!! I love working with her, she allows my creative juices to follow and she trusts me completely as a stylist. I styled and shot her for her upcoming blog that's focused on all things black history/Cultural studies. Initially, I had all sorts of ideas that would emanate her interests in Ethnocentrism but when I opened her closet all I saw was this SCARF!, the outfit immediately came together in my head. It has a beautiful geometric pattern, that I felt was reminiscent of an item you would find in Africa. Immediately, I started playing with the scarf to turn it into a top and created the outfit, makeup and hair to compliment the scarf.
Here's what we came up with!
The scarf was the statement piece of this outfit, everything else was kept relatively simple.
Her jewelry collection is insane!!! Very vintage but some how modern if you get what I mean.
We kept it simple using a statement clip-on blue & gold earring and a brass cuff bracelet.

Thanks for viewing!
