Based around the idea of 'Tumblr Girls' - I did a shoot with Bridi at the beginning of the Easter break for her chosen project. She arrived at my house with a suitcase of goodies, an assortment of her own amazing clothes, gems, fur, pom poms and beads! It was loads of fun and I loved how she pieced her outfits together, marching contrasting and quirky pieces and finishing them with customised embellishments! Check out Bridi's tumblr <a href="http://bridifod.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">here</a> to see more of her styling and photography work! <br />

<br /></div>
So, the last month has been a pretty busy one for me packed with lots of fun shoots! Sometimes it's quite difficult to try and plan shoots around uni lectures and also having a weekend job, but I'm managed to cram in a fair few recently and the more I do, the more I realise how much I love it! The thing I love about doing different shoots is that you get to be a completely different person. I guess it's a bit like acting, when you're dressed and made up ready to shoot, the styling reflects the kind of vibes, poses and message you want to project. <br />
<br />
I've done a few lookbook shoots for some Manchester based stores including Cow Vintage, Oh Hell Clothing and Ediemac (pictures to come soon) as well as working with a number of student photographers and stylists. The thing I enjoy about working with other students is that they have fresh and innovative ideas. It's great to work with people that aren't afraid to try new things and to push boundaries. I love getting dressed up!<br />
<br />
I'm waiting to receive a couple of shoot pictures back so I'll update when I receive them - waiting for the photos is all part of the fun though - especially when it's on film! I'm also just about to develop a disposable camera which I've been using over the past half a year a various points so it's going to be interesting to see what on earth comes out! Hope everyone's enjoying their easter break!<span class="messageBody" data-ft="{"type":3}"> ♥ </span>TESSA LIN.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14313569731631212575noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363422417441601610.post-14099893934323408992012-04-02T04:54:00.002-07:002012-04-02T05:05:23.999-07:00COW Vintage<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.wearecow.com/images/cowlogo.png" style="border: medium none;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript">

WE ARE COW (<a href="http://wearecow.com/">http://wearecow.com</a>) recently asked me to do a shoot with them in Manchester for their website/lookbook! I was super super excited as I love shopping in COW so of course I immediately accepted the offer & it was a huge pleasure of mine to do it! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I took the train to Manchester & we began the day in the back office of the shop - it was incredible! I've always loved browsing the shop, but through the back doors and down the stairs was rails and rails of more beautiful vintage and reworked clothes hidden away - I felt like I was in heaven! A rail of clothes was awaiting me which had been picked out by the stylists & interns and along with the back-stock of clothes, accessories and shoes to browse through, I was in my own little world! We did a few shots in the studio, before heading through the backstreets of the northern quarter, stopping for lunch at common bar & exploring the rooftop of Shudehill bus station - which had an incredible view of Manchester (it was great, till we got shooed away by security!) Overall it was a really fun day & we got some great shots thanks to Richard - <a href="http://richardmanningphotography.co.uk/">http://richardmanningphotography.co.uk</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I've never been to Latitude festival before... infact this year is the first time I've even heard of it! There was some great acts at Latitude year, and I pretty much managed to get to see all the bands I wanted apart to from a few (I blame the temperamental rain showers and the general impossibility of being in several places at once ) <b><br />
<br />
The National, Bright Eyes, Katy Tunstall, Isobell Campbell and Mark Lanegan, The Vaccines, Paolo Nutini, Seasick Steve, I am Kloot, Iron & Wine, Eels, James Vincent McMorrow, Everything Everything etc. </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b> </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
The irrational rain downpours did drive us (and pretty much the whole of latitude - it was rammed!) into the Comedy tent - which actually turned out to be worthwhile! We managed to see some great acts. Not being much of a comedy fan myself, I'm not very aware of the more obscure comedians so it was a great opportunity to open my eyes to new acts! I was really impressed with <b>Doc Brown</b> with his hilarious mix of comedy/rap! Then there were the more well known acts like <b>Alan Car </b>and<b> Dylan Moran</b>. Funny stuff!<br />
<br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">There was literally so much going on with various music stages, <b>comedy</b>, <b>literary</b> and <b>poetry</b>, I really would have liked to maybe check out more of the unsigned acts... but hey, the time nor weather were on our side! <b>Had an amazing time, despite the weather, saw some great bands and met some lovely people. I'd definitely recommend it if you're prepared for the mooch of a journey to Suffolk!</b> </span></div>TESSA LIN.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14313569731631212575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363422417441601610.post-22493195207721322312011-08-03T08:04:00.003-07:002012-03-08T03:18:04.075-08:00Alex Alexander<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBpYGF7Yqv_HTW4cVmrZ2_7RbnrdHR_UEoXjK0GG84cTDAOJ51gSmNLr0YzT3DeQVOxXIHiv6tqF9lEIRQtXzkmvGO0k_J3nA8WknH6suDr3zvttpj7nEMwhA8vQrHh_oyEh1XcnWnmaU/s1600/Scan-110729-0002v1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBpYGF7Yqv_HTW4cVmrZ2_7RbnrdHR_UEoXjK0GG84cTDAOJ51gSmNLr0YzT3DeQVOxXIHiv6tqF9lEIRQtXzkmvGO0k_J3nA8WknH6suDr3zvttpj7nEMwhA8vQrHh_oyEh1XcnWnmaU/s640/Scan-110729-0002v1.jpg" width="634" /></a></div><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"></div><div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">I recently shot with Alex Alexander on location at Tatton Park. <br />
He shoots only on medium format film, which I think looks so much more authentic!<br />
Check out more of his work <a href="http://alexalexanderphotography.com/19808/gallery">Alex Alexander Photography</a><br />
<br />
We didn't have much of a plan for the shoot but we had met up prior to discuss ideas. One of Alex's favourite photographers is <a href="http://www.jeanloupsieff.com/sieff.html">Jeanloup Sieff</a> who has a very classic french style to his photos. He also introduced me to the <a href="http://feaverishphotography.com/blog">feaverish photography blog</a> which I have now become quite obsessed with! </span></div>TESSA LIN.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14313569731631212575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363422417441601610.post-89923163698966245182011-07-25T02:22:00.010-07:002012-03-07T13:28:45.364-08:00Andy Golpys - When soul meets body<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

So it's been a little while but decided it was time for a new look on lookbook. I realised when it came to picking apart the outfit that every single item was from Topshop - how boring of me. But to be honest, I adore Topshop and it does some great fashion at high street prices so I really can't complain! (Lattice Braet £32, Pale brown Hareems £38, Swallow lattice wedges £68 - all from Topshop) <br />

This is the first time I have worked with Emily on a shoot and I was really pleased with the results. She came up with a load of great ideas she wanted to work around based on idea of the Jeremy Scott Fall 2011 Ready-to-wear collection (check it out <a href="http://www.style.com/fashionshows/complete/F2011RTW-JSCOTT">here</a>) The idea was to involve lots of bold block colours, very 90s themed with my hair in smooth silky pigtails and dip dyed ends!

The styling on the shoot was by Joel McLoughlin (<a href="http://thehallowedground.blogspot.com/">http://thehallowedground.blogspot.com/</a>) who is one of best friends a budding stylist! We managed to get a selection of outfits between us - from the amazing turquoise/purple hockey jersey we found in a vintage shop for £3 (amazing) to vintage electric blue dungarees... and the</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span class="threadtitle"> pièce de résistance - </span>the incredible acid wash jeweled Barbie Jacket which Joel Managed to track down - it truly was the best thing I've ever seen ever!</span><br />

Believe it or not my ultimate downfall is carboot sales! I started going last summer and although I haven't been to that many since, everytime I go I become 'a crazy gypsy lady' according to my friends. I'm a lover of bargains and I really appreciate the idea of 'second hand' whether it be vintage shops/charity shops/markets or carboots! Afterall... it's all the same. You can end up paying a pricey amount in a vintage shop for something which will be sold in a charity shop for about a quarter of the price... they can just bump the prices up because it's a boutique shop and silly people are willing to pay!<br />
<br />
Carboot is an absolute treat. The amount of things you can find is amazing... because it's basically a bit jumble. Ok, there is a load of crap on sale and junk that you wonder why people are even bothering to try and shift... but you can find some treasures! I've found a number of cameras for about 50p, including an kodak instamatic, polaroid and one of those lomography cameras that take four pictures at a time (which I have yet to use but i'm very excited about it!). As my mum would say, one mans meat is another mans poisin... so if you have lots of stuff to get rid of.. don't just dump it in the tip, have a sale yourself and give it a second home!</div>TESSA LIN.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14313569731631212575noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363422417441601610.post-80269580487316738172011-03-01T06:57:00.003-08:002012-03-08T03:30:31.902-08:00We Are Dip Dye Queens<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSJctVMgThyJyBaobAV3TmaM1ueewh6SBNlSMTdk-8xCdG8RqfsKyvQjEL9LfCDqnh6wETrvEngJmp9tKwGLDF6BJeOwdalGW7NYC7D8B4BClyEfy2anghyphenhyphenL0KUs2ny3zUP-g4BAaEJ6g/s640/Photo+on+2011-02-25+at+21.39+%25234.jpg" width="640" /><br />

</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;">My friend Ema visited me in Liverpool this weekend all the way from London. Amongst, our activities we did a bit of hair dying and she helped me dip-dye my <b>virgin hair</b> - </span><span style="color: #45818e;"><b>t</b><b>urquoise!</b></span><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;"> I've never dyed my hair before, and because it's so dark I had to bleach it (lots) first. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;">Equipt with bleaching powder, peroxide and plenty of foil we proceeded to section my hair as Ema painted on the gloopy blue mixture, eventually my tips turned blonde (well, yellow..) after a lengthy process of waiting, heating, and washing I added the turquoise dye. Unfortunately this dye is only semi permanent, I used <b><a href="http://www.lariche.co.uk/directions-hair-colour" target="_blank">DIRECTIONS</a> </b>dye which comes in a selection of colours (pictured above) so I'll have to keep topping up (before my hair goes green) but it comes out a beautiful bright turquoise colour on first application! You can buy it either offline or from hair shops such as Paul's hair world or in more alternative places like Aflex Palace.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;">I don't know what my mum will make of it but I love it! It's super long at the moment, and frankly a bit of a mess but I don't care. I feel like a mermaid. </span><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;"> </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
