Street Style at Somerset House!

Off I went to Somerset house today to do a couple of shoots with two fab photographers (honestly it's been an amazing day!!) while I was there I needed to get some vox pops done for part of my uni project and with it being London Fashion Week there was plenty of choice! I was with the lovely Koral from UCA Epsom so she used her photography skills for me while I asked the questions, what a great team!! Enjoy!

James from Bloomsbury describes her style as Italian

and loves going to Mahiki

Rebecca & Jacob both live in London and love going to Fabric

Rebecca describes her style as Homeless chic whereas

Jacob says he just falls into his wardrobe and pulls out the first thing!

Jessica is German but lives in Poland

and describes her style as Rock Chic

Yu is from London and describes his style as something warm

with colour

Karina is from London and describes her style as old

and likes to go to Vortex!

Jay is from Bristol and loves to go to Circus in London

OK so maybe these captions kind of sound like something from Blind Date, should have really put contestants by each name! I had such a great day though with also being stopped by bloggers for wgsn and Adorn Jewellery, today has made me completely sure that I am on the right track for the future!

Name that style... Just call it vintage darling

So here are a few of  peoples gorgeous mug shots I took in and around London and Norwich for part of my creative styling summer project for university, the idea was we had to create some vox pops, be style hunters, take snap shots of any passers by that I caught my eye. Now being into everything 50s I could of easily gone and took photos of any rockin people but I thought no I'm going to give myself a challenge, and boy did I set myself a challenge, because where I'm originally from, Lowestoft, the most easterly point in Britain, the town that gave birth to glam rock band the Darkness, basically a very dreary old town with not a lot going on (can you see why I moved away!) , you're not exactly going to see the next  Alexa Chung wandering the streets!

    Trying to find interesting people to take pictures of in Lowestoft was rather tricky, unless I wanted chav chic or emo edge, I had to get outta town. So after running up to people and making a div of myself here are a few of the people I got some snaps of... Enjoy!

So all a bit different wouldn't you say? It did make me giggle to myself that when I asked each one how they would describe their style, they all said vintage, the question is though vintage what? What decade of vintage? I think its very obvious that vintage is heavily in fashion and people don't like to stick to one decade like me (Which I will admit can limit ideas sometimes!) And I think why not, that's what fashion is all about, experimenting with a bit of everything until you find your own style, so maybe that is why these lovelies found it so difficult to pinpoint what they were, they were still just experimenting!

I still have a good few more to take, I didn't put all of the images I had taken up, just my few favourites, I took all of their names but at the moment the piece of paper with these details on are somewhere in a cardboard box packed away until I move!

Until Next Time
