Daily Outfit – The Casual Vintage Bombshell & Sophia Loren
~Daily Outfit Inspirations~
~Sophia Loren & Guess Jeans~
When it comes to high voltage casual looks, no one does it better than the classic hollywood bombshell. And nothing captures this look better for me than the iconic Sophia Loren. When I started thinking about what I wanted to wear for today’s date to the playground with my daughter and my girlfriend, I turned to Ms Loren for a bit of inspiration – vamping up the look with some killer cats eye makeup. It was once I’d actually dressed and looked in the mirror I was drawn by the parallel between the classic Loren look and the gorgeous Guess Jeans campaigns. This wasn’t a tricky look to achieve by any means, and was perfectly practical for a day spent in a seaside park, eating burgers and playing on the grass.

Kieli: Thank you! ^-^
It’s amazing how sexy jeans and a shirt can look. I like the shots in black and white the best.
Angie: Thanks, I do too! I thought I’d better include a couple of coloured ones so you can see what the outfit actually looks lie in real life too – but Helen has such a eye for capturing the feelings I have.
