Summer '13 Shoot

It's been feeling a lot like summer here lately in Toronto, a perfect time to start wearing long flowy dresses, bold prints, and sheer little numbers.

Here are a few of my favourite shots from a photo shoot we did last week...

a two tier cream crepe with white chiffon tank 

paired with the tropical printed skinny pant

The tropical print is amazing for every woman- the colour combination [green, peach, yellow, nude, white, touch of black] guaranteed works for any and every skin tone.

black perforated one shoulder tea length dress

I love perforated fabrics for summer- breathable + uber sexy.

black and white printed halter maxi dress

I think each woman should have at least one of these staple summer dresses in her closet.  They take you from day to night, are very comfortable, light weight, and easy to pack for any occasion- you know those events when you don't know the dress code and don't want to under or over dress- this is the dress for that!

cream crepe jumpsuit

Anyone who knows my line knows I like to try a fancy jumpsuit each season.  

This one is heavenly for summer... and like I've said a gazillion times before- men love the jumpsuit!

black and white stripe tank 

paired with the tropical printed tea length skirt

I love my stripes, always have, and don't these two prints combined look fabulous together?  The tea length skirt has a bit of fun pouf and is the perfect length for every woman!

Contributions by

Model- Pamela Lincez.  Pam is my wonderful, amazing sister-in-law who was visiting for the weekend.  I felt bad I put her to work as soon as she got here, but doesn't she just look stunning!  I couldn't resist.

Photographer- Elise Windsor.  I was introduced to Elise through my husband (they've worked together in a previous life), and I must say, I liked her vibe big time the second I met her.  She got my style and vision right away, and was a ton of fun to work alongside.  I'd love to work with her again!

Hair & Make Up- Stefanie Mather.  Stef and I have recently become great friends after a heavenly trip to Costa Rica this winter.  She was amazing pre shoot (loooove how she did Pam's hair!) and was surprised how great she was during the shoot as well to help give direction and suggestions for the looks.

What a fun group of gals to work alongside for an afternoon!
