I think it's been rather a long while since I've done a photo-shoot related post, so here we go. This serves mainly to remind you that I actually do work and don't just spend my time jet-setting to far-flung places and being generally amazeballs. A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of shooting the actor Marios Demetriou for the upcoming issue of Omikron Magazine. It was a fun shoot as we got to be really random and outlandish and not the usual pretty/styley/perfect/posey. I had two lovely friends helping me out as extra's, and they got into character so well, as did Marios who took to his villainous role with exceptional ease. I was also blown away by my make up artist of the day, Crystal Michael, who I had the pleasure of working with for the first time. She really brought the characters to life and complemented the styling perfectly. Also, I found a giraffe. So that was cool too. 

Hope you enjoy the pics and check out the full shoot in the next Omikron

Sorry for being somewhat of a slack-alice lately, got caught up in wedding-ing, weekend shenanigans and whatnot. But you know, I have to experience things in order to be able to have some sort of excitement to write about, no?
The main highlight of late was being the maid of honour for my lovely ladyfriend Tania. I am no good with churches and priests, and weddings and tears... I'm good at the drinking and dancing portion of the evening so I did ok then... but I was a bit of a nervous mess until the booze started flowing. Especially as I had many awkwardly hilarious tasks to perform that I was unawares of... like dancing round the bride to a room full of people. Yeah I looked like a tit. But it was awesome. I also managed to behave somewhat normalsaucely in the church, which took a great deal of restraint on my part, especially when I was forced to embellish the truth about being baptised to the priest (I thought the church would burst into flames). But all went relatively dramz free, which was awesome. And the party was great- dancing round barefoot like a little child is always fun.

Me dancing round like a tit

The happy couple and parents!

Barefoot dancing like a tit. 

The rest of the weekend was sun-filled and fancy-free, my tan is getting pretty epic already considering it is only May (biggest benefit of living on a sunny island)  

Roof tanning madness

Little ladybird friend that attacked me on the beach!

That would be my posey suntan face. 

And as I haven't actually uploaded many of my finished shoots, but rather just silly behind the scenes shots, here are some of my latest Cosmopolitan editorials -

Peace&Love&BadAssStyle!

Shut the Front Door!

Ooops... I wrote this a while ago and forgot to publish it! mah bad! please enjoy anyhow, and I promise a new new post asap. xoxo

I WAS NOT HUNGOVER THIS WEEKEND... So deeply impressive no? And for those of you thinking, oh she probably just didn't go anywhere and therefore wasn't tempted by the evils of alcohol... I did go out. And pretty hardcore styley too... party party, dj-ing, klubd-ing...and NO drunken Shona antics! I didn't have to apologise to anyone the next morning, I didn't feel the prickle of shame due to unfortunate drunk texts, I didn't make-out with random inappropriate people, and I didn't wake up in a puddle of my own vom. I went out, I drank in moderation, I danced my ass off, I dj-ed at an awesome party, ate a delicious roast dinner, I had a great time with my friends, I went home at sunrise. All in all, it was way more amazing then it could have been if I had been smashed, so I think this is a great new chapter in the world of vOMGal. I might have to pass my Queen of the Vomitation Nation over to someone else... watch out. 

Here are some shots from my sober week of brilliance-
