GLAMOUR PHOTOGRAFY: greg kadel

{pleats and peonies + hello}

. . . hello again! had known the week would be a busy one, but was not prepared for the beautiful whirlwind it has become, and through the all the running around since it began -- the meetings, appointments, lunch dates, flower markets, shops and photo shoots, have not had as much time to stop in to say hello as much as would like, but in all the while, the most utterly charming and impossibly thoughtful messages have been coming through . . . how delightful! {& thank you} . . .

hope you're having a stunningly lovely week so far,
~ roséline xo

Birds, Lingerie...

images via here

We are trying to find a common theme with each of these pictures by Greg Kadel...there's definitely the lingerie and big blowing hair, but we can't quite figure where the bird motif works itself in. Even though it doesn't make a lot of sense, it certainly is striking!
That first image with the garter panty & stockings is superb, and we love the use of the cupless bra in the third image down. We are always suggesting the cupless/open bras to our customers as a layering piece/accessory for your outerwear, and that open bra layered under the dress is the perfect interpretation of it. In fact, we might just try that look ourselves tomorrow (with the Myla 'Simone' Triangle Bra)...it's so fun being inspired by fashion!
We actually featured Kadel in our last blog post, and usually don't feature the same photographer back to back, but what the heck! These pictures just had to be shared...and besides, we're going to use that first picture to create a new graphic for the Twitter link on our blog's sidebar.

Lingerie With an Edge; Greg Kadel Studios

We like how lingerie can be edgy and bad-girl and meanwhile retain a high-fashion elegance. This editorial by Greg Kadel initially caught our eye because of the ruffly skirt in the first picture, but the high-waist panties and open bras helped win us over. We particularly like the garter stockings as seen in the 5th picture; very much like the Cervin Pigalle hosiery that we love so much! Even the artsy make-up had us loving this shoot, with the exception of that last picture; the model in this shot looks clownlike or just a bit scary.

{fashion inspiration: the art of dressing down}

. . . nearly always in heels, summer wedges, a messy topknot and oversized sunglasses to walk the dog, lipgloss to the gym, maintaining that when in doubt, always better to be overdressed than under, and rarely, if ever, wear sweats, save for the gym, of course, but when happening upon this cool & laid-back sweat suit, discovered that sexy hair and the perfect accessories can dress up just about anything . . .
