Happy Valentine's Day my dear Parisian Panda followers and subscribers!
I am so thrilled and extra excited to share our Valentine's Day special for this year not only because I get to showcase my unconventional take on what I would normally wear during the most romantic day of the year but a celebration of finding true love! I know, after all these years-- finally, my prayers were answered and he came in a 6'2 tall bundle of sweetness and so much more than I could ever want and wish for in a partner for life, and what's more? My parents adore Mehdi (especially Mum). But, enough of that right now, we shall get back to that later on.
This year, I collaborated with Larry Dorta of LDG Photo Studio once again and shot at the same location where I did last year's feature, in the heart of Miami Design District. I wanted to feature a very modern, edgy, all black look with a pop of red and some balloons, roses and a panda accessory (mandatory, of course). If you know me by now, I am not the one to follow trends and I just really like to express my vision and my own take and stamp in every fashion looks I curate. I always say, fashion is one way of creatively expressing who you are and it should be done in a fun way- your way!
One of my go-to's is to always have a focal point in one's outfit and look. In this particular look, since I was going for an all black ensemble from Maniere De Voir, I wanted to accessorize with all pop of reds-- so I had to pull out and wear my (not so comfortable) Louboutins for the shoot and plus, staying true to my French self, a little red beret would never hurt anybody, n'est-ce pas? Also, can we all just say how cute my panda purse that happened to have a heart in the middle of its chest is?
Pictured below is a burning rose, thanks to the great idea of my (scientist and future doctor) darling, Mehdi, who also came to watch me during the shoot! Although we had a few mishaps of making sure it won't fully burn, at least, Larry was able to capture a little bit of the "burning" effect.
