Wonderland in the South of France

I can just die here.
Deep in southwest France, Bordeaux to be precise lies a sleepy little town called Les Pres d’Eugenie (named for Empress Eugenie de Montijo, the wife of Napoleon III) where one of France’s most celebrated chefs, Michel Guerard decided back in the 1970′s that he and his wife would buy some property and an existing chateau, and create the perfect south of France experience.
The summer air drifts in bits of rosemary, thyme, rosebushes and lavender, all abundant in the various outhouses and gardens.

















BTS Day 4 - Bye Bye Birdy

Uncaged: Artemis spreads her wings and brings out her wild side in my fabulous feathered top! We love how the make-up and hair team went all out with the beautiful bird theme - gold leaf eyes and lips? Genius!

Ryder Makeup - BTS day 3 - Fantasy

It's a cotton candy fantasy! Fun fluffy feathers and tulle, perfectly posh pearls - we could just eat this lookup! Watch out Katy Perry, there's a new bubblegum pop fashionista in town.

Blue Bird Perched on an antique feather hat, made of antique millinery from the 1920s, the bird is from the 1940s.
The Bustier in hand made from over 3,000 vintage pearls and the crinoline under the tulle skirt are both from the 1950s.

Behind the scenes Day 3 - Here Comes The Bride

Love this Vintage, 1970's, Victorian wedding dress, featured on the model, Sarah Roberts. An abundance of ruffles gracing a huge train makes a bride feel like a princess. The sailboat I found turned into the ultimate headpiece, that Ryder Makeup artist Brianna Knapp incorporated into her hairdo. It looked out of this world.
This dress is in my shop now, ready to be snatched by a lucky bride.







Pretty as a Peacock, Beautiful as a Butterfly

I love the way Artemis interprets the romantic yet edgy character of my dress. If bright, bold colors characterize one half of my style, this whimsical, lacy design shows off my other side! One of my favorite parts of this piece is the butterfly accent I fashioned out of peacock feathers and Swarovski crystals. The perfect opportunity to rock a slick purple pout.

Electric Blue Under the Big Top

Collaboration with Ryder Make-Up Labs. As soon as Brianna walked in front of the camera, she brought my design to life!  My electric blue and neon yellow jumpsuit speak to my love of asymmetry and the avant-garde. I paired it with vintage diamond waterfall earrings from the 80s and metallic Jeffrey Campbell platforms.  We love the sleek high ponytail and luscious lashes. Striking daring poses, she put on a wild show worthy of the circus ring spotlight. Look out for Brianna sporting more of our favorite looks in the future!

Ryder Makeup Labs - Behind the scenes - 1st day Photo Shoot

Recently I had the pleasure of working with Ryder Makeup Labs.  They help some of the best make up artists from all over the country create flawless editorial quality make-up for the Fashion and Film industries. Over the next few days and weeks, I will be posting behind the scenes shots from the make-up & hair to the photography.  I especially want to thank them for letting me shoot freely behind the scenes as well as filming it.
Thank you also to beautiful Brianna Kellum, Artemis and Risa for bringing my designs to life.
