On January 1st I launched a fabulous give away to celebrate the blogs first year! I teamed up with talented photographer Elizabeth J Photography and Rita Sue Clothing to create a wonderful prize… A pinup dress of the winners choice from Rita Sue, hair and makeup by me and a full shoot with Elizabeth!

I was so excited to see who won- there were so many entries! A kind and generous lady named Emma won and when I informed her, she told me she wanted to gift it to her bestie Sarah! How sweet is that?!

Fast forward to March 2nd and it was the day!

It was my day off but I opened up the salon to give Sarah the full treatment. She wanted victory rolls and classic pinup makeup…. her wish was my command!

I don’t do a huge amount of makeup these days but ohmygoodness Sarah’s face was such a easy face to make over! Beautiful skin, perfect eye shape for liquid eyeliner and nice full brows!

Once we were finished, we all drove to meet Elizabeth at Cornwall Park for the shoot! Sarah started off in the Cherry Print Jenny Dress that she picked out from Rita Sue Clothing. We choose a nice spot amongst the trees for some whimsical shots.

We then wandered to a favourite spot of mine in the park, with a gorgeous canopy of trees!

Sarah is quite the book worm so she bought along a few from the 40s and 50s as props!

Then it was time for a outfit change… Sarah switched her pretty swing dress to this sassy sailor wiggle dress!

She looked so glamorous and turned many heads wandering through the park!

We had to have a photo together and of course one of Sarah and Emma who had come along for the day!

It was such a fun day and so amazing to get to see Sarah flourish. At first I gave her some posing direction but she totally ran with it and didn’t need any help after a while! You looked beautiful Sarah, I hope you enjoyed the day and loved the photos.

This giveaway was such a success, it might have to make a reappearance for the blogs second birthday next year! Thank you to the generous Elizabeth J Photography and Rita Sue Clothing for sponsoring prizes.
