Beach vs Scientific Conference

It has been a while since my last posts. Here's an update of what I've been doing.
In the past days I was at a very exciting and informative conference near by the beach. So with the only spare times I had, I went to the beach as much as I can even I'm not in the water but at least I'm on the beach.
 
First night, went for a walk and there it was full moon and beautiful scenery.


 Next morning, got up early and went for a walk again. Even though it was early but the sun was right up and very warm nice weather. Wish I was free to go swimming/ tanning (tisk tisk).

Styled And Make Up By Rae B (Blogger of Girl with Curls)

Make up! Touch up! Before start up
 
Stylist Raelene with her bags.
Behind the glamorous photos there's stress and sweat. It was a hot Friday today in Brisbane. With make up and hair done we (including few others) had to catch a bus to the photo shoot venue due to occurrence of some confusion.  So we waited and waited, then we uncovered that the bus we planned to catch had broken down. As a end result we had to take the bus that drops us off ~15mins away from the venue.
Phew~~ WHAT A WLK

 
Of course to entertain ourselves - Photo Time!  The very thin coat is for protecting the beads from rubbing off when I'm my big bag. Yes it was very sticky and hot with it on but must say it somehow went well with the dress in a more dress down sense.
Not very happy me
 Again backward story telling ^.^

Mythical Vampire Inspired: Soirée Noir


Third look of the FOUR - Mythical Vampire Inspired Soirée Noir. This was emphasised with the classic and elegant long black (noir) evening dress and dark purple rouge lipstick (Estée Lauder, Black Classis MATTE 04). Lastly, Soirée Noir was nicely complemented by the red carpet and marble stairs to complete the vision.

With outdoor shoot stripping away the red carpet and marble stairs, the beautiful purple colours of falling jacaranda had provided a similar vibe but toning down the strong dark look.
