Loopholes and Infinite Fashion

Well, I'd like to say I've been slaving away, creating amazing fashion and finishing all my work to the highest quality I can manage.

That would be nice.

It would also be a lie.



What I've really been doing, is attempting to work, doing bits and bobs here and here and basically moaning about how stressed I am.



Sound familiar?




Howsoever, I have managed to drag out a small stop motion. One of our uni briefs is to do a fashion shoot, promotional brochure, website or a video for a company of our choice.

Seeing as my own work is veering towards recycling and upcycling, I chose Junky Styling and ended up with a video based on the idea of space, dreams and the fact that upcycling almost means that clothing can be eternal.

SO, with Ryan Davis' "Loophole" (on repeat) and Coldplay's 'Strawberry Swing' video going round and round in my head (which, by the way, is one of the most amazing stop-motion videos I have EVER seen... go search it) I grabbed by better half for a day of photos, glitter, felt planets and giggles.

And then spent another day editing it.

For the Boys

So lads, I feel a tad like I've been neglecting you somewhat.


Therefore, I wandered off in search of something to customize for you all. And I came across these:






Pretty bog-standard work shoes right?





Well not anymore

Already Out There

I am pretty out there. Not gonna lie. Sometimes I look at myself and just think

 "what...the. Really?"

In a literal translation though, I do have some pieces floating about out there that I made for pressies (or specific occasions)

I was only reminded of this by a Facebook post I was tagged in. Check this out!

"You Cannot Put the Same Shoe on Every Foot"

So I had a bit of a panic. The model I was supposed to be using, became unfortunately unavailable - but luck has it that Lucy was free :)

So here they are! Three new pairs of shoes out of three old pairs of shoes. Matalan, New Look and a Charity shop have now been transformed.


Model: Lucy Ruffler
Customization, styling, photography and editing: Me
