What I call life!

My photo
London, United Kingdom
I'm a girl. I love clothes. I love cups of tea and cats. I have nearly 10 years expereince in Fashion design, styling and modelling. I also have a degree to prove it, so there!! So after everyone (mainly Medina) telling me I should start my own blog about all things Tiger like (being me) and fashionable and generally ace, I decided to get on and start. Never really done one of these things before but I will give it a go. Even if its just to stop my brain rotting. Expect weird pictures of female icons, tattoos, japanese culture, overly colourful pictures and weird and wonderful imagery as I scan the interwank for ideas and amazing little things that make me smile. I love the 80s, the future, stuffs that look like leather but are not!

Busy some more!

So after me telling you about my workshop days with Technical Boy Photography. I have a couple of pictures to show for it!


Its a great place to learn how to light models and to direct them (If you are brave enough! ;p)

Busy busy Busy

Hello all,

Long time since I last blogged. Sorry about that.

So this past month has been busy for me and is looking to be even more busy too.
I have started a new part time web design course for a few weeks to up my website making skills. So expect my modelling and designing websites to change.

I have been doing lend outs for shoots (anyone interested in borrowing things let me know).
Which I have had some amazing pictures back.
Firstly the lovely Emma Alicia borrowed some neck corsets and I am very happy with the results! Thank you Emma xxx
JCG Photography.





Also I lent a custom made piece to team Binkerston for some epic NSFW snow queen nakedness. I am in love with this photo!

Thank you Madame Bink, Adam Robertson and the British weather for this!





Last but by definately no means least, I am doing a fashion show at Festival of Sins, March 19th.
Please please come along and see my futuristic designs. (All new I may add.)


I have been doing some photo shoots with Technical Boy and some workshops too which I will get some photos uploaded soon.

Phew I think that's my lot........ for now.

Vegetarian Shoes of Win!

http://www.bboheme.com/

Some really amazing boots and such on this ace vegetarian friendly website! Love.

Check out the lace up back, grey leopard print welly boots. Amazing.

I really love when vegetarian/vegan designs are forward thinking or even keeping up with today's fashions at all. As I am well aware of the time when vegan shoes were these hideous things that you wouldn't really wear unless hell froze over.

The word vegetarian when I was a kid was a bad bad word, somewhat misjudged and misguided as the knowledge was not available back then (over 20 years ago) ........... even now you will get some die hard meat eaters making you feel bad for not eating meat, that you are not getting the right nourishment and blah blah blah. Like you are a terrible per
son. Seriously I don't judge you, so do not judge me. But hey ho, times have changed (for most people) and so have fashions. Its great to pick up things which are non leather or suede and still cutting edge. The only thing I would request now is durability. I literally get through a pair of boots every 4 months or so, but I do love to walk.

Yay for veges!

Workshops?

So this month I have been busy with shoots all over the show. Something I have never done before is a workshop day. Very exciting it was to. I was the model for well known alt photographer Technical Boy and very well known fashion photographer Diego Indraccolo.


The guys were teaching a lovely bunch of people how to take photos. I have to say they were all lovely to work with. Some more courageous than others and all really friendly.
I also learnt rather a lot from the workshop too as well as giving hints and advice to the new photographers, which was great fun as I wanted them to realise how to react to a model. Most of them were to scared to say anything to me at all bless them and rather than tell me to move would rather move the whole light set up. After a while and much encouragement and direction from the guys, they warmed up nicely.

Diego took a few photos him self which I loved. Here is an example below, and something quite different for me for a change as its a basic headshot. No crazy make up or excessive outfit or hair, just me, with a bit of daily war paint and a nice result I would say! Enjoy.

Katy Perry

Love her or hate her you have to admire Katy Perry for being a latex style icon. The girl has done more for latex companies recently than any other person or campaign has done!



I never really was a fan of Katy at all, until recently. When her love of latex caught my eye. Its not fetish, but fun and sexy and sassy. Something a lot of old school designers could learn from.
I for one am a fan. Especially her catsuit for her new perfume. Yummy nessssss!


As you can see from the picture below she totally rocks this catsuit for her new perfume 'purr' (Credits to Miles Aldridge)




I love the leopard print design, much like the Lady Lucie designs. I think applique latex is the way forward. I for one when I have some money will be purchasing some yummy cat like pieces.
