She also had to have a theme and a story for the editorial. The theme was supposed to be safari, but you know how us girls tend to get carried away with pretty clothing... needless to say, not everything abided by this strict theme. I think the end "story" for this editorial was decided on "City girl goes on safari"... you know, that old folk tale. So here I present to you the final photos, along with my rendition of that classic fable... condensed version.
This is what girls who live in the city look like. They wear nice dresses and are tall and thin and they stand really close together. Typical city girls, am I right?
But she is so bored with the hustle and bustle of the city. She needs a change.
And even though their faces remained nonchalant, the city girls were overjoyed that they still looked sexy, even while on a safari.
The end.
Oh Kendra, I love your idea of a city girl. Actually, I would love to dress like one of your city girls one day . Any outfit will do.

@Hatti The black skirt is from 69 Vintage on Queen West. Might still be there!! Although it was quite big, a lot of pinning was necessary to make it fit hahah.
ReplyDelete@Nat isn't her hair amazing! I was obsessed with the fish tail braid. Makes me want my long hair back.
This is hilarious!
