Photoshoot with Emma Smyth

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to do a photoshoot with Emma Smyth who is currently building a photography portfolio. Emma is a Bartender in Cork and uses photography as a creative outlet.

I met Emma outside the Main Gates of UCC and we ventured around campus finding different spots to take outfit pics. Prior to the shoot Emma requested that I wear garments that go with the autumn leaves so I opted for oranges and browns. Fur and velvet are everywhere this season so I had a little fun playing with textures. Most pieces that I wore were last season so if you wish to follow trends you don’t necessarily have to go out and buy new clothes, just take a closer look at pieces you already own.

What I wore –

Coat – Last season Zara (see faux is the future post)

Bodysuit – Zara

Black Jeans – last season Pennys/Primark

Velvet Boots – last season New Look

Belt – last season Pennys/Primark

Bracelet – Present from France

I actually bought a few of these bodysuits in different colours. I thought that they’re a great way of adding a splash of colour into my wardrobe. The shoulder pads add more structure to the look and the silk fabric is so smooth against the skin. They’re a perfect transitional piece that can be taken from day to night. Just add some stilettos and you’re good to go.

Faux fur is a must have autumn/winter staple. Check out my post on ‘faux is the future‘ for some more fur coat options.

I had such a lovely day walking around and chatting with Emma. To see more of Emma’s photos be sure to follow her on Instagram.
