Shoot 8

This is the last shoot in Hartbeespoort, with my girl Gcebile.

This is really South African, so I hope you like what we came up with.

Enjoy the last shoot :)

Location: Hartbeespoort South Africa

Quick tip:

This is a pencil dress with a coat over, so this outfit, as is can be worn by all body types, as nothing is being emphasised, so everything is hidden.

If you were to wear the dress alone, I would recommend an hourglass, inverted-triangle and rectangular shaped figure would best suit this type of dress as is a body fitted dress.

My experience:

So as this is was the final shoot, I obviously found this shoot the prettiest, because of the colours. When we found this place we were so excited, so this was perfect. We didn't know what to expect when we came to this village, in the middle of nowhere, so we had nothing in mind. I just brought all the outfits I had left and this is the outcome :)

Fashion vs Nature

Day 3

I'm still in Etosha Safari Lodge, had to overnight to get some pictures before sunset, so the dress I am wearing here is made from fabric that was sponsored by Penduka. The hand-embroidered detail, made the dress very unique and found it fitting to use it here, to add to the beautiful scenery, if that's even possible :)

I decided to use it at this venue because it was soo green, had to break it somehow :D 

I loved taking pictures here, in this dress.

Quick tip

This dress is perfect on an hourglass, inverted-triangle and pear-shaped figure. The ultimate way to cover big hips is by wearing something like this, whether it's a skirt, this is the perfect way hips wont be seen. There's a lot of detail in the top, so attention won't even stray anywhere else.

My experience

I loved this shoot, because the weather was perfect. The surroundings beautiful and I didn't want to get out of the dress :D 

The surreal surroundings made the shoot amazing.

Went to take some pictures at Etosha Safari Camp as well, different environment- amazing experience :)
