Bonjour


I often give myself projects to do. This one was for a faux fashion magazine ad or something.
I am a lover of fashion and all things girly and retro. Heres the result of my play.
Have a great day my friends.

Ooh la la, this is the first opinion! Wonderful. The face, the letters,... My favourite today: the apron.

Thank you for the wonderful retro trip to the 50s! That era was both fabulously smart and equally kitsch. Your gorgeous lady looks a bit too self assured to be the classic 50s type. Nice.

Wow, I love it too! It would be great if you'd do a little faux fashion mag, either paper or ezine! Sort of like an art book...just a suggestion, I know I'd love to see it!
