I’m sorry if you’re tired of my Twisted Alice I’m sorry if you’re tired of my Twisted Alice but I thought I’d share the photo process of how I made myself look headless. It’s simple in theory, really! Photo one is the body shot. I had to make sure my hair was all behind my shoulders to get a clean image, and this was most important for hand positions. I wish I’d put my other foot out but oh well. Little things. Image two is important! When one is holding a head, hair has to be behind the head, right? If I hadn’t held the wig out I would have had a lot harder time placing my own head and photoshopping it realistically in the air. This also helped with semi realisim. The last photo is getting my head in the right space and it felt awkward as heck (and this is a slightly different shot than the one I used) but it worked! Last step, get a copyright free bloody neck stump to put on your cut off neck, it’ll help sell it. Simple all in all but it took a bit of thinking it through and a fair knowledge of photoshop to make it happen. Also, shoot with a tripod so your images are all in the exact same spot. (Go back if you want to see the finished image I shared yesterday!
We’re all mad here ✨ . . . My second Twisted P We’re all mad here ✨ . . . My second Twisted Princesses look with @slystyley here you goooo! What if Alice never escaped Wonderland? I couldn’t decide which one I liked best so have them both. And let me know which one YOU like? Mega thanks to my husband @sukofilms for extra lighting and manning the tripod since I couldn’t hold my clicker.
Day 13 of the #30dayvintagechallenge is another @k Day 13 of the #30dayvintagechallenge is another @karinadresses pretty, this Cece in Carnations, which has pockets so obviously I love it. I’ve basically been living in Karina Dresses over the weekend, it was chaos and I’m exhausted. But yay, a new week is here and it’s time to reset and work on new things!
Sometimes you have a really emotional day, and you Sometimes you have a really emotional day, and your husband told you once he likes you with bangs, and there’s that pair of scissors you just found so... oops. Bangs, feat. this amazing 70’s dress for day 12 of the #30dayvintagechallenge and now I don’t know what to do with my face in selfies.
Happy FRIDAYYY!! I wore this gorgeous version of t Happy FRIDAYYY!! I wore this gorgeous version of the @karinadresses Jess dress in Black Pearl for day 5(?) of the #30dayvintagechallenge and felt SO cute. Because listen: pockets, black lipstick, and a big hat are basically the best combo to lift your mood. I always love collaborating with Karina Dresses (which should be obvious by now) and this dress is no different. This print is a new one in their fall collection and it’s so classic! One of my other favorites of theirs is a really similar print but maroon so I knew I’d love this one too.
Once upon a time, there was a princess trapped in Once upon a time, there was a princess trapped in a tall tower, surrounded by brambles. She was called "The Princess Who Sleeps", for she had been cursed to sleep for a hundred years. This curse could only be broken if a prince came to rescue her. But the prince never came. And the princess? She awoke at the end of that hundred years, fought her way through the thorns, and killed the evil fairy herself, taking her rightful place as Dark Queen of the Brambles. (Swipe to see the full set!) It was exciting to wake up to see several new followers here, hello! If you’re new, I’m Kristina. I’m a mom of four with a love for vintage dresses, storytelling, and photography. Today I’m collaborating with @slystyley to put forth some Twisted Princesses; this is the first of mine and she’ll be posting hers today too! When I went into photographing Aurora I thought... what if, instead of being rescued by the Prince, she killed Maleficent herself and became the new dark queen? So here we are. A Dark Aurora for your pleasure. This is also the dress for yesterday’s #30dayvintagechallenge. It’s relatively new, being 80s instead of 40s or 50s, but oh it’s so stunning!
I shot something I can’t post till tomorrow, so I shot something I can’t post till tomorrow, so have this old timey photo of me and my husband because why not? #30dayvintagechallenge
I feel like an evil Bond girl in this hat and that I feel like an evil Bond girl in this hat and that was an entirely unexpected aesthetic to get from today's #30dayvintagechallenge outfit.
Day nine of the #30dayvintagechallenge is... hones Day nine of the #30dayvintagechallenge is... honestly, taking a break in a comfy dress I can’t show you yet so instead have this very dramatic shot of my #beetlejuice cosplay while I rest, edit, and basically drink way too much coffee to survive.
