Dreams Money Can Buy, They Told Me It's Like A High And It Wasn't A Lie...

This is such a long post i'm not gonna bore you with a lot of nonsensical chit chat. This is a self-portrait collection and a labour of love. Based on a peculiar 1950s-esque dream I had last night full of light, shapes, shadow, empty spaces and a lot of other stuff too. I've tried to recreate it photographically the best I can.

Hope you enjoy it cos it took a longass time for me to put together!!...























Curious to know what you lot think so any feedback would be very much appreciated!! :)

Have a great weekend!!
Toodles to you bitches xxxx

    Girl, these are truly works of art. You did a great job! I would seriously hang some of these up in my room. It's your own editorial. Beautiful!

    These are really nice! I especially like the one with your face blurry and like.. two faces.. umm I hope you know which one I mean. And I like the one with your nipple Xd out. Also, the two close ups of your profile are really nice. I love the scarf up-do situation happening with your hair :)
