Sometimes you need to stop and smell the flowers

http://Sometimes you need to stop and smell the flowers

I’ve been dressed in this outfit for several days now, but was struggling for inspiration as to how to shoot her.  More and more of Flickr seems to be full of (A) women just wanting to flaunt their tits or (B) bloggers just standing in front of a background that has absolutely no connection to what they’re blogging.   I’ve always been drawn more to pix that tell a story, that set a scene, that just “do more.”  Yes, I do plenty of what I consider “throw away shots”, when I just want to get it done; sometimes those actually come out way better than I expected, sometimes they don’t.   I needed inspiration, and was floundering…  Then I saw that Frogmore has reopened its doors, and I just couldn’t resist dashing over to stroll through its latest iteration, hoping that the creativity was somehow contagious.  I honestly didn’t make it that far before I came across this little flower shop… and bam!! there was my spark!  I could envision the smells from all the blooms, and yes, even though daisies have no scent, their pure simplicity resolved my overthinking the shot (something I am definitely prone to!)  I know I’ll be back soon to wander and explore and be inspired by the rest of this amazing creation!

  • Outfit:  Allure Couture – Landry Blouse Dress.   Landry is one of those styles that I think will look awesome on virtually ANY body shape.  She features an artfully unbuttoned blouse top with a subtly patterned skirt & a wide cinch belt at the waist.  Available in 8 complete sets (Belted Dress, Panties, Heels) or in a HUD-driven Fatback that includes 12 textures (Dress, Belt, Panties, Heels), all of which are 100% Original.  Landry is sized for Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, GenX Classic+Curvy, & Kupra, & was EXCLUSIVELY at the Beauty Event, but I’m running late (surprise, surprise) so she’s now at the mainstore.  See the ad below for details. Demo available.
