let them eat toast!

we worked on a few shoots for DIT's toast magazine.

All the clothes were borrowed from the women's aid charity store (WAWA) on Dublin's aungier st..
we found some real gems in there, I got a blazer and always get a buzz out of people being shocked that it only cost a fiver...in yer face topshop haha!

We looove charity shops and think Dublin has some really amazing ones...
but the wawa store has to be one of the best!

Here are some pics , pre photoshop or any editing...

vintage fashion fair, dun laoghaire.

The vintage fair was last sunday, in the royal marine hotel, dun laoghaire.

there were millions of exhibitors, selling things ranging from vintage china tea sets to ww1 medals, and antique lace samples.

there were also swing dancers and a fab dj playing music from the 40s 50s 60s all day to get everyone in the mood...


we would have spent our entire month's pay easily, if we hadn't been so strict on ourselves.
ugh SNORE I know boo!

I spotted a fab cream and brown snap lock mini suitcase , which was lined in purple fabric and had little compartments for everything. it was a steal at €60, but we are going to new york and must save! boo...

anyhow we were working on the fashion show, which was a tassel club production .... here are some pics of the day...
