Spring Look

My inspiration for this look came from some spring trends, firstly i liked a high impact lip with a natural base which is a trend from spring 2015. Because bobbi isn't always about the nudes, they have a variety of great lip colours too so i want a lip that stands out but not a bright red, i don't want it to be to overstated and take away from the rest of the look. I also want it quite glossy. 



A couple images from Bobbi Brown Instagram where she states about bold colourful lips for spring. 

This image is from Carolina Herrera, i love the lip colour as its not to much and doesn't take away from the rest of the look. 


For my spring look i want it to be look really natural and clean, but have some element of colour. For the make up i want a pink glossy lip giving that spring vibe, with element of pink in the eye, but only subtly because i don't want it to look to over the top. I want it too look clean and finished which is what bobbi is all about, that natural beauty look.

I want the hair to be in a slick pony tail. 


Although after trailing this hairstyle in my class i felt like its too harsh for the look i want to go for. I want a more playful subtle look and i think the high pony tail isn't friendly enough and creates a different look, which doesn't in keep with my brand. I still want the hair to be very finished though and a ponytail, so i started looking for other ways to achive this but to still in keep with the spring look. Spring 2015 trend was a low pony tail. Oscar De La Renta used this look in his shows this year. 
Although i still feel even though its lower which defiantly makes it less harsh it still isn't what I'm looking for. 

I found this image from GUCCI spring 2015 and i love it. I love the way the parting and changing the placement of the ponytail instantly makes it look more subtle and approachable.

I am going to stick with it but lower it but change the placement to the side instead of the lower back just to make it slightly more my own. I feel this will give it the look I want and in keep with the naturalness bobbi browns brand is.

I know i want a white background for this shoot because i want the whole thing to look very clean and tidy. I think if the background was any other colour it wouldn't in keep with the feel of the shoot that I'm aiming for. I think either i want my model to wear a pastel colour, but i don't know if this will look to washed out with the white background. So i might style her in black so the model and background don't all blend into one.

I was really happy with the way my images came out. I feel they in keep with everything i was going for and I'm really glad i changed the hairstyle, to the low side pony tail instead of the high scraped back one with no parting, as this is a much softer look. I think the base is very natural and fits in with my brand and although its not complexity nudes which Bobbi Brown is known for i feel the pinks and the soft pink and brown smokey eye still give a real sense of the brand. I tried the light blue top but whilst shooting after trying the black i felt this looked better.
