Surreal Deal

Out-of-this world details and rich tones add a level of intrigue to any look. 

Check out my collab with Sunglass Hut to see how I styled their latest eyewear trend.

Prada sunglasses, ASOS jumpsuit (sample), Vintage belt, Nifty Thrifty jacket, And Other stories booties (similar here). Shot by Scott Brasher for Sunglass Hut.

Schiaparelli, McQueen, Chalayan, Gaultier, Margiela. Some of my favorite fashion designers and houses could really be classified as surrealists at heart. In fact, the industry is constantly drawing from the surreal as inspiration, blurring the lines between fashion + art while creating twisted, imaginative and decadent layers of meaning within a single garment. 

So, when Sunglass Hut asked me to take part in their 'Surreal Dreamscape' Instagram campaign, I was eager to tap into my own creative side and find a way to incorporate a touch of the surreal into my own style. I first raided my closet in search of rich prints, dazzling embellishments and unique pieces like the ASOS jumpsuit I'm waring here. I then enlisted the help of photographer Scott Brasher, who I knew could help bring the look to life with his keen eye for detail. Overall, I'm loving the mood in the resulting images... because we all have a dark side to our imagination that we should tap into more often.
