Hello all! I was invited to do a guest blog post today and gladly accepted. Any opportunity to get all dressed up is an opportunity worth entertaining! My name is Shenni, and have been assisting my dear friend Chantal for the past year or so with her blog, acting as her on again, off again, photographer. Today we decided to put Chantal in the driver's seat while I stood in her place. 

I had a blast enhancing my features with black, browns, and golds, and to any of you who have already seen my last "Other Side of the Camera" shoot know how much I love animal print. This over the shoulder tunic paired with a tight black pencil skirt gave my body a feminine shape while highlighting some discreet sexiness by showing a little skin up top.


The newest addition to my wardrobe has to be the star of my shoot, my black, 2 look, Steve Madden handbag. I went crazy over the gold accents, and can instantly change up my look by merely turning my bag around. Speaking of versatility, jewellery can be a great joy to manipulate when forming an outfit. This gold bracelet is actually a necklace folded three times over.

What I'm wearing :: Animal Print Tunic ~ Winners. Pencil Skirt ~ Eclipse. 
Shoes ~ Payless. Earrings ~ Le Chateau. Handbag ~ Steve Madden. 
Bracelet/Necklace ~ Family Heirloom.    
It might not be obvious here in the blog world, but I can be very reserved and shy at times. I actually prefer to be the one behind the camera rather than the one in front of it. Last summer I had a photo shoot with my niece Veronica as part of the "Other Side Of The Camera" series and I had so much fun I figured I would do it again. 

You might have noticed the name Shenni on my blog lately. She's been my photographer for the last couple of months. Earlier this summer, she switched places with me and had her own little photo shoot.        



She paired this leopard dress with black and gold accessories.




I really love the cutout back of this dress.



I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm off to the United States for a 5 day getaway and I'm SUPER thrilled about it! :) Hopefully I will have some pictures to share with all of you when I get back. In the meantime, here are a few outfit pics.

While my niece Veronica was visiting last week, we decided to have a bit of fun and I gave her a little photo shoot. I had such a great time getting her all dolled up and styling a few outfits. It was also super fun being on the other side of the camera for a change! We improvised with a bit of my wardrobe and a bit of hers. Finding things that actually fit her was a bit of a challenge.

This sheer mint blouse hasn't moved from my closet in months! It hasn't been as versatile as I had hoped. I had planned on wearing it with white shorts and gold accessories at some point this summer, but as usual, I had a hard time finding shorts. Maybe I'm just too picky. Ha! Veronica had cream colored shorts that worked just as well. :)
 


The top she's wearing here is super fun! She took an old Forever 21 Beatles tank top and cut it up herself. I thought it was super creative of her. :) 



This is another blouse that hasn't been as versatile as I had hoped. It did nothing for her figure so we tied it at her waist.




I hope everyone enjoys their weekend! :)
xoxo
