ALL TYRED UP

This has got to be one of my favourite locations I have shot to date! Who knew a tyre yard could be so much fun! Having took these photos a few weeks back (before I got my hair cut!), my sister Kassandra and good friend Lyndell happened to wonder upon this urban wonderland. The sea of old tyres, hints of barbed wired and rustic details sure did get us excited to be creative and play around. When it comes to outfit posts, I like to style the post to a theme and ensure this is portrayed in the choice of location, colours, camera angles etc. I think it makes a standard outfit post that much more appealing (which I hope you agree) and in a way presents itself as a mini-look book. Come on, why don't you tell me?! ....Do you prefer styled or casual streetstyle shots? Would love to get your feedback.

I would describe this look as "pirate-meets-boho". As a lover of collared shirts, this candy-striped sheer number from August Street offers just a little bit more with it's mullet hem and maroon stripes. Here I have cinched it around the waist with one of my favourite vintage belts and teamed it up with a bodycon mini from Market HQ. The mix of dark berry colours livens up the other neutral pieces and colourful Aztec accessories. These Castro Boots from Rubi Shoes are the perfect everyday boot and a great transeasonal pick to take you into the colder months. Did I mention they are incredibly comfy too?! I have already been thinking of winter to tell you the truth, and even purchased these black ankle boots by Vagabond the other day! Gotta love ankle boots and how they can they bring an outfit from day-to-night without a fuss. If you're on Instagram - come say hello! My username is @youronlyblackswan
