Decrypting the Secrets to the Perfect Flatlay

 As an alternative fashion enthusist, I often come across various flatlays and yet I feel despite my efforts I can't seem to grasp the concept of making good ones of my own. Not to say that I think mine are completely shite but they do seem to lack that certain...crispness.


 I guess a better background would help, and better lighting but making do with what I have at my disposal, my house and natural lighting, I'm not quite sure how I'd achieve the results I'm after.


Anyway, here's a few of the better ones I've done;




Jaded




Gilded Wine




This Dress has a Mass Effect 

 



That's all for now,

From Meh to Marvelous; Help Me Put Some Spark Back in My Outfits!

So lately I've been feeling rather bleh with life, I guess it's been the down after all the excitement (not in a good way) of having an operation. The last few weeks I've been stuck inside the house, unable to drive anywhere going completely stir-crazy. I'm lucky that I have a few lovely friends that have come to visit me to help me pass the time but I want to be able to find a reason to get out of bed in the morning (the actual morning and not 11:30am or later) with a spring in my step (but not too much lest I hurt myself hehe).

So I was thinking a method that always makes me feel better, as shallow as it may seem, is taking pride in my appearance. I thought if I have an excuse to get up early, actually style an outfit rather than chucking on any old thing that's sitting on the top of my pile of clothes and putting on my face then I might feel a wee bit better and like I'm actually regaining some purpose to my life.

I thought if anyone expresses interest we could do some sort of themed outfit challenge type thing over the course of the week e.g. Monday Grey-scale, Tuesday Anatomical etc. etc., (we can decide that later through a poll perhaps?) And yeah, every one who is interested takes part even if it's in a small way because you have restrictions or something (like work uniform or some such) and then share your addition on your blog and lemme know if you do and Maybe I could feature a few pics of my favs of the day and have links to everyone that wants to have a go.

The only thing I can see going wrong is that sometimes my internet is temperamental (or my father is temperamental and won't let me go on because he's a crazy control freak) and I may be delayed a day or so in posting that day's challenge. So to combat this, we could just deal with this issue if it arises as it comes or we could do some sort of round up in the following week.

So lemme know what y'all think, yeah?

That's all for now,

Over and Out!
