GOLD RUSH

Everything always seems so much prettier in gold but like they say, "Not all that glitters is gold". Regardless, of what anyone thinks or says about gold, i believe everything and everyone is special in its own way.

Take this metallic gold dress i have on for instance, it is a very regular cut sleeveless dress with no prints or patterns, lace, zippers, buttons or any extra detail besides the slightly glittery gold shine to it. The first thing that comes to mind is, "How do i style this dress by uplifting the shine in order to bring out its real beauty?" Answer? Go gold from head to toe! I wanted a not-so-over-the-top look that was still easy on the eye after wearing all gold. Which was why i picked out gold accessories and for a fun twist, i wanted to wear boots rather than the usual heels. Adding the animal print jacket was my way of throwing in some edge to the high-low look.

The concept of an open field slash desert-like road area for the shoot was from my imagination of the beauty of strength in a woman. I have always imagined there is nothing more befitting than seeing a woman glammed up, hopefully not lost but being up against a bare background alone in the middle of nowhere, let's all that glitter of strength shine from within.

Thank you all so much for reading. Now your thoughts.
