Schoolgirl-Inspired Photoshoot

Blegh, been feeling the worst of this whole sickness these last couple of days. Migraines, fevers, chills, coughing... Maybe I'm sick with more than 1 thing since I'm actually on antibiotics now! I don't know but I've been incredibly fatigued which I think always happens to me when I start taking antibiotics. Does that ever happen to anyone else?

I was trying to "sweat out" the fever this morning, which I think did help me feel better. I hate the feeling of sweating but it did seem to break the fever. Hubby didn't grow up with that method, so I wonder if it's just an Asian thing. :P

Anyway, thought I would quickly post some photos up from that photoshoot I was talking about when I did the camera comparison post.

The photog was the same guy who took my Vintage Planes shoot so he called me up to just do something random and fun. I put together this outfit on a whim. It reminds me of school uniforms with a dark twist and I think it contrasted nicely with the beautiful fall leaves.


Outfit:
grey tank top - Abercrombie, white beaded skirt - Abercrombie kids, cotton blazer - BB Dakota, skinny tie - Penguin, garter belt - DKNY, stockings - ebay, boots - Alice + Olivia for Payless

Oh, and I wanted to mention. Thank you so much for all of your support while I've been sick in comments and on twitter! I can feel the love and care and I really appreciate it. <3

I'm gonna take another nap now. I am resting guys, I promise!

  5. Super hot! :) Your husband is a lucky man.

    Yaaaay for getting on some antibiotics! :) Fatigue can absolutely be a side effect but hopefully it will pass after you're done with the course of treatment. Get better soon and make sure you're getting plenty of rest too!

  6. Oh my Jen, you've been sick for so long, I hope you feel better real soon =( Hope the antibiotics help... I cannot remember if I've ever felt fatigued when I was on antibiotics before :/

    Lovely photoshoot! I agree with Thii, I could totally imagine you in a K-Drama hehe XD

  7. You look so gorgeous in here, Jen! (but then you do on a regular basis too. ;D)

    & honestly, you look so tall in pictures, and I definitely adore the contrast of the colors between the leaves and your clothes and hair. ^___^

    I've been wondering about your twitter pic and it turns out it's from this! So cute! Thanks for sharing it with us!

    & sweating out a fever, I don't think I necessarily DID it, but I definitely heard of it...maybe it really is an Asian thing...I guess it makes sense, using sweat to get rid of the heat within your body.

    & your fever...definitely have to rest much, drink lots of water, and lower it! I hope those antibiotics are doing their job so you'll recover in no time!

  23. I really like the outfit, but the stocking looks a bit tacky/trashy, still could have been sexy without them.
    ReplyDelete
  24. I am sorry you don't feel well! :( Get plenty of rest and have your hubby make you soup! :D

    You look uh-mazing in these photos! When did you get into modeling?

  25. The second to last pic is gorgeous. The silk stockings are over the top and confusing - like wearing a bra over a shirt.

  27. Hi Jen!
    oww your photoshoot turned out great, you look so gorgeous!

    I love your booties, where did you get them from? Thanks Jaki

  28. You look great, nice Fall colors, I really like your hair and boots and I like third pic the most but I think it'd be better if you went for a more innocent look. Stockings are kind of slutty, the image of a school girl doesn't come to my mind when I see these pics. You don't need that to look sexy cause you already are. And IMO skirt same color as jacket would be nicer. Anyway all the best.

  29. Nice pics!
    Rest and get well soon. Looking forward to more of your tutorials.

  31. You look amazing Jen!!! As usual ^_^

    Love the outfit, especially the blazer, been looking for something similar ever since I saw the first post of you wearing it, but still cannot find anything similar! So I think I will just buy a navy blue one and then add the white trimmings myself *gulp* not good at textiles at all >_<

    Hope you get better soon <3

  32. Hope you feel better soon, I totally understand the whole sweating out thing! My father used to make me bundle up and sweat it out when I was sick I hated it so much lol.

    Love the photoshoot pics!

  33. whatever you wear Jen, you look gorgeous!!!
    ReplyDelete
  34. Hope you feel better soon Jen!! *hug* I think the sweating out thing is an Asian thing. I think Americans actually use the opposite like ice beds or something to cool to lower high fevers. It's so weird. An Asian person would freak out and say that would make them more sick!! When I have a fever I am stuck btwn both methods, which I believe just makes me more sick lol.
    You are absolutely gorgeous Jen! Love your pics!

  35. You always look beautiful in photoshoots; but, to be honest, I think the stockings are a big nono.
    ReplyDelete
  36. LOL! I think it's funny that so many of you guys are flipping out about the stockings. Yes, it's sexy/trashy/edgy and that's the point! Schoolgirl gone wrong. It's not like I'd wear that on a normal day, it's like a costume. >.<

So much suffering >< I've not recovered 100% yet because I can still feel a cough or two coming but i guess i feel a lot better than before. I really hope you get better soon though.

  48. Gorgeous but, those stockings look a little too off or too much of the same color as the leaves. Perhaps a white color would have been suited?
