These are the last pictures from my fabulous urban photo shoot...so sad. Soon I'll be back to my usual self portraits and photos taken by my reluctant photographer who is also my fiance.
The concept of the look was traditional glamour. Taking a Xhosa traditional skirt (Mbhaco) and glitzing it up with pearls and sequins. An integral part of the traditional Xhosa women's gear is a huge head wrap; instead of that I opted for the lighter, easier to wear turban. These photos, like the yellow dress pics were taken at the Maboneng precinct in the city center.
I hope you enjoyed the photos curtesy of my talented photographer friend Portia. Visit her blog Picture Splendour for more amazing art work.

Hi babe, how are you? Love how mixed something like this beautiful traditional skirt with a s glitzy top and fabulous turban! Please do a tutorial on how to tie one. You look amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow, you look fabulous!! :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the turban and the sequin top!!! Pretty!
ReplyDelete..Thanks for sharing your fashion opinions with me...May this week be a great one for you!
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely dear, as always. And speaking of reluctant photographers...lol
ReplyDeleteMy husband was also reluctant to take my photos, so I decided to get myself a tripod and wireless remote.
Believe it or not, the photos I took for my Pretty Pregnant series are taken by me using the remote, well except the very first one that my hubby was so reluctant to shoot.
In short, getting a tripod and a remote might help you in the long run.
