I'll Be Your Domestic Goddess, If You're A God

Old readers of this blog will remember the first two times I decided to pose in a washing machine and dryer and even new readers must be aware by now that I like to pose in odd places. Call it a hobby, a passion, an obsession, but it is just very fun to do! Having a friend who works in laundry services is excellent when you want to pose in industrial size dryers... The whole shoot ended up looking rather pin-upy in the end, though that wasn't really my intent...theclotheshorse, the, clothes, horse, daily, outfit, fashion, style, buffalo, plaid, dress, layer, vest, pinup, retro, washing, machine, photoshoottheclotheshorse, the, clothes, horse, daily, outfit, fashion, style, buffalo, plaid, dress, layer, vest, pinup, retro, washing, machine, photoshoottheclotheshorse, the, clothes, horse, daily, outfit, fashion, style, buffalo, plaid, dress, layer, vest, pinup, retro, washing, machine, photoshoottheclotheshorse, the, clothes, horse, daily, outfit, fashion, style, buffalo, plaid, dress, layer, vest, pinup, retro, washing, machine, photoshoot

I love the vest and dress combination, really cute!

You look simply adorable. And perhaps it's the tone and colour of your pictures, but I didn't find this pin-uppy at all!

annabananna said...

great posing! it's so much more fun to look at than, for example, my boring standing at the door.

and your outfit is lovely, like the dress and the combo with the vest.

melly said...

I'd be terrified of getting closed in the dryer, but as long as your friend was the lookout, I guess its okay. I really like the shirt-dress/belted-vest combination. It's very dandy!

Shen-Shen said...

AlicePleasance said...

These are lovely! I remember your first photoshoot and how much I loved it as well :-)
The last picure is my favorite, looks like the washing machine is a door to another world, like the closet in Narnia!

You're right, we do both pose in interesting places! Bahah, I love #2, it's so cute. And I like that you belted it with something green, the color combo is really nice.

I love Nine West shoes! Great shoot though! I've never gotten any really great shots from posing with/in/on washers and dryers.

Lydia said...

It did turn out hilariously pinup-ish. You look so cute, I love the one where you're laughing.

discothequechic said...

hehe, they're fabulous!

and they kind of make you look like a massive doll, just because we're used to seeing washing machines looking a lot smaller.

susie_bubble said...

You washer dryers are MASSIVE! Love these poses...

Emily said...

Cute outfit, I love the washing machine, I'd be terrified someone would shove me in and turn it on..... haha, but you look great!

Pretty Pirate said...

Super fun shoot! I have always loved that plaid shirt dress of yours. I have a hard time with button up anything, unless stretchy......the whole huge breasts thing. I guess I should feel blessed but it's annoying most of the time.

Miss White said...

Cute butt ;) I was going to write I've always loved that dress but pretty pirate beat me to it, oh well!

Siljesfashion said...

Love your photos, such a cool place to take outfits shots! The dress is a killer on you.

Ha ha ha, that last picture is hilarious and adorable all at once! I love your obsession with taking photos in unconventional places, makes me think that me and my camera need to get out more!
I can't believe you fit in a washing machine either!
Love it!

Mimi said...

Haha you are such a cheeky monkey :D

The idea with the vest is a great one.Definately gonna try it.

Just lovely!

Ana said...

Very fun and creative. I've never seen a washing machine as photoshoot material but it really is.

miss milki said...

I'm back from holidays and have so much reading to do to catch up. Love this shoot especially the 2nd photo...looks like fun!

Sassy said...

These are the coolest pix I've ever seen in a fashion blog! Wow! You rock!

coco said...

See there is no way I would look this good in a washing machine.
I love the look!

Lauren said...

Just a question: sorry if it's rude or been answered a million times but do you take your own photos and if so, do you ever feel weird taking them in public places?

I tend to take mine by myself and I feel odd just trudging out to my backyard with the old tripod... I really admire your bravery and your sense of fun. The second picture is gold.

yiqin; said...

Ohyes, my fave is wit those skeletons?!?! I like all your unusual photoshoots :)

Pop-Monkey said...

Gorgeous, as usual!

NewlyInspired said...

Love these shots!!! and the outfit rocks!

Anna Pope said...

That second photograph is adorable.

Meg said...

Oh my gosh! I sort of want you to live in my wardrobe so you can give me tips on what should I wear each day. I think you'd fit too since you're so petite (this coming from someone who is barely 5'3)!

PS. I know this comment is verging on the weird, sorry!

B said...

Lovely shirt!

Fashion Critic said...

my biggest fear as a kid was getting stuck in a washing machine.

I nearly had a minor freak out looking at your last picture. I guess the fear stays with you forever.
