Superlicious!

Hi my name's Hannah and I'm an intern at Lady Luck Rules OK - one of my favourite jobs during my time here, has been getting ready for the super fun Mini photoshoot. Inspired by some of our favourite magazines such as Lula and the amazing dirtydirtydancing website, we decided the best theme for the new Mini necklace shoot would be a party! This gave us the perfect excuse to whip out the sprinkles, biscuits and of course party hats! After an exciting week of planning clothing, hair, make-up and of course props (including trips to my favourite vintage store, Beyond Retro) the day of the shoot was finally here!

Our super talented hair and make-up artist Tomoko set about getting ready our lovely model Dawn. First of all we shot Princess Hotdog, in this shot Dawn wore the bright party hat I had made the week before. Then we moved onto Whizz Kid followed by Milk Maid. This was one of my favourite shots (and personal favourite necklace) the cute balloon dress was a great last minute find and worked really well. This shot meant there were also a few biscuits around, I’d forgotten how yummy party rings were! We then moved onto Hot Shot with an impressive tiger mask, even though I think Tomoko enjoyed wearing it between shots even more than Dawn!

After this we stopped for lunch, and after a quick Brick Lane bagel (of course), we were back to our shoot. Our first job after lunch was to make the amazing hair pom poms. Tomoko had spent her evening preparing the paper, so we were ready to roll, it turned into a bit of a talent contest, seeing who could create the roundest pom pom, Cordelia definitely won for the size! With our collection finished, Tomoko was able to start putting them in the hair. This turned out to be a genius idea, I loved how well they matched our candy stripe top, very 80’s summer holiday, this became the shot for Eat Me Apple.

Our final shot of the day was for Pop Lolly, this was paired with some amazing sprinkle covered lips! After doing a few shots and looking back over them, something wasn’t working, what was it? On closer inspection we decided that this was because there was simply too much white in our sprinkles! This could only mean one thing….the only way to get rid of the white would be to pick them out ourselves. We all gathered around the table and began the task. After 20 minutes of doing this, we all agreed we would never see sprinkles in the same way again but luckily it didn’t take too long after we’d developed our own techniques. We returned to the shoot with a bright selection of pink, blue, green and yellow sprinkles. After Laura perfected the photos and Sam designed a super cool sprinkle background, the shots were ready for the website and the launch of the superlicious Mini collection!

Hey Rach,

They're all vintage and sourced from Beyond Retro In Brick Lane! They have a website but they don't sell online just yet - www.beyondretro.com
