Burberry
This is my latest of Sarah from I bleed Fashion, wearing a large silk Burberry scarf of mine, folded into the shape of a flower. I am proud to say that I was responsible for the styling, makeup, hair and photography! As you may not know, I’ve been practicing my fashion photography quite a bit these days. It’s spring break (actually, it’s called reading week) for us at McGill so I’ve got some free time on my hands (to study).
This photo was a bit of a fluke, because it originally reminded me of Kate Middleton and was royally tacky. Playing around with the colors and cropping out half of Sarah’s face seemed to do the trick lol. I got this silk Burberry scarf from Susan as a gift and it proved to be quite useful. My influences for styling are obvious here – she is reminiscent of a Dior flower girl, but her pale skin and subtle piercing bring out a certain coldness. With these features, I was able to direct things away from an uninteresting, pretty, prim and proper image.
If you would like a silk Burberry scarf of your own but cannot splurge, check out the ones available on ebay. Beware of scammers!

Love how the fuchsia in her eyeshadow brings out the pinks in the scarf. Amazing that you did everything from hair and makeup, to the actual shoot – so multi talented!

Thanks so much! Fashion blogging does indeed take a ton of work, doesn’t it?
