You can leave your hat on

Remember that song? I loved it when I was little, though I really had no idea what it was about. Tehehe.

That top picture is my fave, I've had that concept in the back of my head since I started Vixen Vintage, and never go around to it. I mentioned it to Lara, and she said "let's do it!"

I think this is my favorite set so far we've done, I mean, it features my favorite accessory! My facebook peeps might remember a picture I posted a while ago of a studio set up in my teeny living room. Well, this is the result! I still can't believe these were taken in my house, Lara does wonders!

Hope you enjoy, and have a nice weekend!

These are so pretty! She's such a talented photographer and you're damn good at modeling, too. Love the first picture best, but I love these set in general, it has such beautiful tones and such a fun approach on the topic!

Porcelina said...

Such great shots! Really fun and a little different.

I did a photoshoot too recently, waiting for the results is not my strong point!!

These are wonderful, the third one down is my favourite. Imagine if you had done the first one with ALL your hats - you would be crushed! x

harbourmaster said...

"Johnny three hats?? Noone wears three hats, because it looks freakish" (you don't look at all freakish, I just can't resist a Mighty Boosh quote!). Are these dresses from your collection? They're delightful!

Lexy Mademyday said...

This huge pink hat box is just irresistible!

Sewingadicta said...

Oh, hats, my favorite accessory with gloves! The photos are wonderful, just like you! Inspiring!

Unknown said...

I just wanted to say - you're so beautiful and full of life, and your style is charming! In my city it's cold and cloudy now, snow doesn't even think of melting, and spring seems so far, but your blog makes me smile very day. Thank you for inspiration :)

Anja said...

Oh my godness, you're marvellous! Great pictures!

Steph said...

These are definitely my favourites so far! They look like so much fun to pose for - you look gorgeous by the way :-)

Nanina said...

Haha, it might be hard to perform a strip in the first picture's getup ^^ If you absolutely have to leave them on, that is. Maybe that's the new stripper training. Like walking with a book on your head - stripping with 10 hats. No poles included though, that would be plain cruel ^^

Relatable Style

ChaoticOasis said...

These are so adorable! Great, now I have to draw some of these for my final printmaking project.. would you mind if I did? You are so beautiful, and I adore your style!

Casey Maura said...

These are utterly charming, Solanah! :) I especially love the first one--it just seems so "you". ;)

Mary Beth said...

Adorable shots...Who would have thought you had so many hatboxes? Let it be know you love hats, Solanah, and hatboxes will come to you. I've a few. Now, I need more information about the dresses. I like you lengthened the one with the slip underneath. Brilliant.

Wow, gorgeous photos! All the dresses you wore are stunning, especially the polka dot and red one!

debra mejia said...

These photos are so cute. I just love hats and hat boxes. I wish people wore hats all the time, like they did in the '40s. Then we would all have a reason to have tons of hat boxes!

I adore that salmon colored dress. Beautiful! And I love all those balancing hat boxes. Makes me wish I had a room full of them, along with a Marie Antoinette inspired tea party

Frankly my Dear, I love fantasia!

Sarah, of course not! I think it's a pretty fun shot ;)

Hehe, Lili, I didn't even think of that, but you're right!

ChaoticOasis, I would love that, but it's also good to ask the photographer :) Thanks so much for asking!

Autumn, thank you! I'll keep that in mind!
