Sooooo...
A bunch-o-youz wanted to know more about the Marie Claire/Yoplait shoot & trip to NYC, so I'll drag the coverage out to one more day.
I don't want to overwhelm you with pictures of me pretending to be cool for much longer than that, though.
You might start getting the wrong idea.
Nonetheless, I like show and tell just as much as the next 5-year-old proud turtle owner, so here are some picalictures from my time in the big honey crisp....
What I learned from this experience:
1. If I ever had a job in fashion, I'd never stop working.
2. Being surrounded by people who care about what you do and don't judge you for it is liberating.
3. Stylists play dress-up. All day long. For money. It's really not fair.
(I'm sure there's more to it, but let's pretend there's not.)
4. Bad shoes can and will cause toe-numbness for up to/longer than 1.5 months
(both feet. Ruined. Both.)
5. I really love attention.
....Especially when it means I get to pretend that I'm famous.
6. Photoshoots are awkward.
...90s music helps, but the 15th repetition of the same 'sporadic' little skirt-swish-heel-pop is difficult to make natural.
7/finally.
I am not. a. model.
Oh shut up, Gab.
That puppy paw look is totally on point.
Sick of pics yet?
What did you guys think of the different looks? Do you think they picked the right ones? (refresher here)
Do tell.
Cheers.
Ah! Looks like you had so much fun! Stylists really do have one of the best jobs! I don't think I'd ever want to stop working either! Love the skirt swoosh!

it looks like you had such a fun trip. i often envy people who seemingly get to play dress up for work, but like you said....there's probably more to it than that. thanks for sharing the pics of NYC.
ReplyDeleteah yea right, you look like a natural model! they must've had so much fun playing dress up on you. i love seeing behind the scenes of a magazine, it's super inspiring to see what's possible out there and that your dream job does exist. i think they picked right berries for the shoot haha!
ReplyDeleteI honestly went through every picture, and every comment and loved it. This is such a great post. I'm so happy you went through the trip in detail it looks so freaking amazing
