Hey Guys
If you haven't filled in the Reader Survey, please do so before you read this post and take part in the giveaway if you're interested in meeting some other bloggers at the Savvy and Chic Floral Themed Garden Party. Thank you :)
So, I had a shoot a few weeks ago with some amazing creatives. I met Gloria Etim at the natural hair meetup and she commented on my instagram that she wanted my contact details. We spoke and she said wanted to do a shoot with flower garlands. I have a flower crown and Mide has a similar one so it became a creative collaboration.
I love shoots and pictures too so I did research via Instagram of girls wearing flower crowns. Many of them wore white and had long flowy hair so we followed that approach.
One of my fave photographers, Linguini, joined in on the shoot. If you don't know him then you must be a newcomer to this blog. He took the pictures in the Ankara Inspired Post and my birthday post too. We took a lot of pictures that day so I'll make this a series and start with the ones he took.
There once lived a Flower Princess |
Her name was Tuksy Bee |
She sometimes hid behind a fan |
Or pouted her lips like a Queen |
Her Skin was smooth |
Her hair was long |
She loved to wear dresses, sometimes short |
Sometimes Long |
White was her favourite colour, you see |
But sometimes she got bored, just sitting by the sea |
She spotted a girl by the sea one day |
Tuksy Bee got so excited |
Her Flower crown almost fell away |
They swung on the steel |
And pouted like queens |
Played games together |
Acted like Greek Godesses |
Outfit Details
Short dress - Boohoo
Sandals - forever 21
Maxi Dress - random shop in Nottingam. I bought it for £10 2 years ago but I never wore it because it sorta looks like cele cloth (no offence to followers of the religion) it was finally put to good use though
Flower Crowns- Aldo I did my makeup myself, Yayyy
