What I Wore Wednesday

Hello friends,

Welcome to What I Wore Wednesday {Week 30: Mod}

I wanted to do a mod fashion shoot for this week's post, with my new 60's inspired hair. My dress is a vintage favorite that I've had for years. I dug it out of my closet (literally) and altered it a bit. I am glad I did because I love how these photos turned out. A big thank to my sweet friend Heather who teams up with me for these WIWW shoots. She is such an amazing photographer. I swear she gets better and better every week.










Dress: Vintage // Boots: Seychelles // Earrings: Vintage

A few things I learned from this shoot:

 1. Sometimes I just crack up and start laughing when I'm getting my picture taken. 
2. Model's poses are definitely not as easy as they look. Ha! 
3. It seems the most awkward feeling poses look the most natural on film. 
4. I'm glad my friend's the one taking pictures of me (I would feel so uncomfortable otherwise).

Don't forget to check out The Pleated Poppy for more WIWW posts.

Cheers,
Bonte

      Thanks girl. It's nice to hear people actually like this and read my posts. Sometimes it feels like I'm sending this into outer space and no one even knows:)

      My mom always gets onto me for not smiling with my teeth more. Haha, I guess it's just not natural for me, but thank you!

    I look forward to your posts! Love the new hair cut! You can totally pull it off! And I know exactly where you are coming from with the awkwardness in posing. I felt that way with my bridal portraits. (Just ask Heather) But she and Jason were a great team and made it easier to feel a little more comfortable.
