Fashion Shoot with Sabrina

Oh to be in my 20's again!! Even though I am still obsessed with fashion and the current trends, my "soon to be 36-years-old with 2 kids" body can't do this style justice.  So, I live vicariously through all my 20 year old models. And can we just take a minute and talk about how amazing it is that fanny packs are FINALLY back in fashion?! The collection I had 20 years ago was freaking incredible, and I'm feeling pretty sad that I got rid of all of them.  

It has been almost 3 years since Sabrina stepped in front of my camera for her Senior Portraits, and she was better than ever! I loved catching up with her and using her to play around with some new lighting techniques. We are getting ready to launch our new Model/Portfolio Building Line this Fall (KCP Portfolios or KCP Models - which one do you like better?) I can't even begin to describe how excited we're getting about it!

Are you a previous KCP Senior? Interested in building a portfolio, or are you working on your IG feed and need some new fresh images?  Contact us and we would love to help you out!!  

Definitely show some love below if you like Sabrina's images, she was an incredible tester and I can't wait to get her in front of my camera again!!

Sabrina's Shots

This outfit makes me miss my fanny pack so much! A simple one-piece paired with a classic denim jacket and topped off with a fanny pack. What more could you want?!

 Here's another super stylish yet still casual way to spice up a simple one-piece. A gorgeous corduroy jacket, grey tennis shoes, and a delicate necklace.

WOWZA! This outfit is perfect for when you're going out but your friends INSIST you wear something casual. Just because you're going casual doesn't mean you can't look hot!

Look at my gorgeous model! Seriously, go follow her down below. And if you want a fun shoot like this then message me on Insta ;)

Now this is the outfit to wear when you want to turn some heads. This camo look does everything but blend in, and paired with fuzzy heels you'll be the center of attention wherever you go.

The perfect pajama party outfit-- What more can I say about this look? :)

Welcome to Part 2 of my NYFW Fall/Winter '18 three part series! Runway fashion serves as inspiration for what we are going to wear for the season, so no you don't have to wear sky high heels and bright yellow eyeshadow. I like to think of runway shows as mood boards for what I am going to wear. Here I am going to break down a few runway outfits from my last post and also show some of my favorite street style looks so check out my last post, "New York Fashion Week: Fall-Winter 2018" and enjoy! 

FROM RUNWAY TO YOUR WAY

For this ensemble, you have to look at the pieces and fit rather than fabric. This runway look is telling us that pairing a chunky sweater and midi skirt takes a casual winter outfit and makes it look chic. This outfit is super simple to recreate and personally I love pairing a floral midi skirt with a crop sweater (because I was not blessed with lengthy legs of a supermodel and when I wear two pieces that are boxy I end up looking like a shapeless blob) and either booties or a pair of flat white tennies. 

You may be thinking, if I bought something like this I would 1) spend way too much and 2) wear it once to something important and then never wear it again because everyone already saw me in it; and you'd be right. So for this look pay attention to the colors and the general silhouette. The fit of the dress is classic, and I promise there are cheap versions that match this style, I always check Forever 21 first because let's be real their stuff is cheap and usually pretty fashion forward. Next is the color, this bright mustard color is showing up EVERYWHERE this season so you definitely want to incorporate it into your wardrobe. A sure-fire way to add color into your clothing collection is add it through accent pieces like small purses, jewelry, and sweaters instead of making big buys that will go out of style by next season. 

This outfit is so simple that it almost needs no explanation. But I will because it's too cute not to talk about. First off, if you're like me and not blessed with legs like skyscrapers, instead of investing in a pair of boot cut trousers, instead stick with your favorite high-waisted jeans and call it a day. Next, take a look at the pattern on the top, it includes classic black and white but also this years go-to trendy color Ultra Violet (check out my blog post on Pantone's Color of the Year: Ultra Violet). This is another hint that this year you should keep it classic but incorporate some bright and fun colors.

Ok, I know what you're thinking... "wut." But don't fear, this runway look is not telling you that in order to be fashionable you have to dress like this model! Let's walk through this look together. Starting from the top is the blush pink baseball cap. This takes a typically masculine style and adds femininity to it, this has been a running theme at this years NYFW, so take your favorite baseball cap or tailored blazer and rock it with feminine flare! 

STREET STYLE

This look contains so many different trends from the runway and mixes them to form a completely wearable outfit. Also, take any single piece and it will make any plain outfit fashion forward. 

One of my personal favorite street looks from NYFW, this outfit combines classic pieces and puts a modern twist on them. The pants look straight out of a french new wave film but they are made current by pairing them with a killer latex jacket and some rockin shades. 

Another, albeit more dramatic, use of the latex jacket as a trench coat paired with red boots and a white purse. This look manages to be both chic and edgy, classic and modern-- but altogether gorgeous! 

BINGO! This look is probably the easiest to recreate and still super stylish! I'm pretty sure I've found a dupe for every single item in this outfit at either Forever 21 or Zara! Just grab a pair of boyfriend cut jeans, a patterned button down, your favorite pair of sunnies, and a sick coat. You're out the door and looking like a million bucks!

 

This last one is another super simple outfit, and if you couldn't tell already, there is definitely a theme with these street looks. All you need this winter is a few staples to mix and match with and you'll have a huge variety of outfits to try out. I suggest buying a few different styles of sweaters (knit, turtleneck, mock turtleneck, etc.), a pair or two of jeans you feel comfortable and confident in, a unique coat that matches everything, and a pair of booties for the ages.
