My First Photoshoot modelling for Elisha

Hello everyone!!! My name is Zodie, I am a styling intern and tweeter under @EFJintern for ELISHA FRANCIS, I create outfits on her blog inspired by her jewellery and give style tips to my viewers on what to wear with her jewellery. I am currently working at Urban Outfitters. I am an inspiring stylist and Fashion lover. Being apart of Elisha's team has really inspires me to put everything I've learnt into action. I really appreciate this opportunity to gain experience and learn how the industry works. I was so excited to be offered this internship to be a part of her team and I think this is the place for me.... So here's my first photo shoot :)

Date: Sunday 25th of November 2012

Where: Peckham, South east London

Why: The Muse Project
Who: Elisha Francis, @EFJintern, Model Maarit and photographer Simon @sbsrichardson

Oh what a day :)

I was given the opportunity to be a stylist on this photo shoot for Elisha and dress the models in some gorgeous accessories she made for her project at uni called The Muse Project.

Looking forward to that day, I was given the mood board which was inspired by Monochrome and so I knew what she was looking for the shoot. It was 1 day left till the photo shoot and I received a text from Elisha, regarding one of the models. She had cancelled and ask me if I would like to step in her place. I was thrilled and excited to be apart of it.

So the day had arrived, I was told to meet at her place for 10:30am and bring a few items along with me: Black trousers which I didn't have so I brought my black jeans, Black brogues, black heels and my makeup kit. I arrived at 10:35 as I was abit delayed. I finally reached, where I was greeted by her and introduced to one of the other models I would be working with who is in the same course that she is in, she was really nice her name is Maarit. So the day began, we sat down with some nibbles, a hot drink and discussed about the concept.

Now it was time to get dressed, put makeup on and get our hair done for the shoot, so we are ready for when Simon comes.
Couple of minutes later Simon arrived and we got into our first outfits, my first outfit was a white pleated shirt, black jeans, black brogues and a statement collar she designed, I was the masculine model which I quite enjoyed, I love a suit outfit :). We took some pictures inside first to get good use of the natural light before it went dark with a backdrop of a grey painted wall. "It was so much fun".
Then we changed into our second outfit which was a black corset with black jeans to show off the accessory around my neck... I was given a neck piece with spikes and lace, " I definitely felt fierce", to top it up I was given the best vintage fur coat I had ever seen, I felt so classy and elegant.
It was time to change back into my first outfit, so we headed outside to do shots near Peckham Tube station where there was loads of arches and a quirky bar which was a great place to take photos. It was the perfect scenery and we had lots of inspiration by our surroundings.

I hope you enjoyed this post :)

Princess Necklace

Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend :)

 Diamonds sparkle. And girls just love this sparkle, the bigger the sparkle the better.
Diamonds are connected with many different symbols such as love, devotion, aesthetics, beauty, etc.
Diamonds are one of the most ultimate fashion statements as it is almost impossible to go wrong with any piece of diamond jewellery.

I absolutely love this Princess Necklace, it Sparkles in all the right places and will make your outfit shine above everyone else.

 

This Necklace is from the PRINCESS Collection by Elisha Francis....

Its very Sparkley, Elegant, a Statement piece and Bold.

Ola Earrings

 

 

Who loves the Tribal/Ethnic trend???

 

Tribal/Ethnic trend is all about patterns, deep colours taking inspiration from different cultures far and wide, mainly through the Western garments.

 

For the Ethnic look all you need is a pair of wooden earrings to make the outfit come together.

 These earrings are from the FAIRYTALE Collection by Elisha Francis....

 

Its very Classy, Simple and Bold .

 

Although its a simple piece, your outfit is going to Shine.

Peace Concert 2012

Follow @efj_intern_life

Who? Me! Elisha, Organization STORM, Music Artist Shaun White, Fashion Vlogger Peeks, Music Artist Lady Leshurr and comedian A.Dot 

What? Peace Concert 

When? 3rd August 2012

Where? Wandsworth Town Hall Civil Centre 

Why? To promote EFJ and support The Peace Concert

S.T.O.R.M. stands for Support, Trust, Opportunity, Rebuilding and Motivation. This organization is a self help group for lone mothers. The aim is to rebuild self esteem and confidence in women who have experienced difficult relationships or have missed out on educational opportunities. The Peace Concert is an intrinsic part of  S.T.O.R.M to support and empower young people to reject involvement in gangs, and to instead seek alternative life styles through education, employment and training.

Marie the founder of S.T.O.R.M has hosted workshops with EFJ in the past and so she invited EFJ to sell at the event before and during the show. The show started at 8pm but the doors were open from 3pm so me and Elisha were there from 2pm to set up. There was quite a lot of people from the local community the majority were teenagers but there was a lot of young children with there parents. For most of the day I was on the stool with Elisha at other times I was be handing out flyers and badges which everyone loved, including the men! We also met the lovely fashion and beauty vlogger Peeks and The Mayor of Wandsworth came along to support the event.

We packed away around 9pm so we could watch the rest of the show Shaun White was performing who is also Elisha’s cousin, so I met him before he went on stage . For those who don’t know about Shaun White yet he’s a songwriter , producer , recording artist and performer, and has collaborated with Wretch 32 and  50 Cent, just to mention a few!

Some of the highlights of the concerts were performances by the comedian A.dot, and Lady Leshurr both of which put on an amazing show.

BOBB Fashion Show

Follow @efj_intern_life

Hey everyone! 

Hope your all enjoying your summer, I have been so busy and productive, I'm in the beginning of starting up my own fashion label and as you already know I'm interning for
ELISHA FRANCIS JEWELLERY :D 

The first event of the week was the Best Of Both Boutique Fashion Show

Who? Me! Elisha, Sofia- Owner of Jaydah boutique, Kelvin- friend and Fashionista, Charley- stylist for the show, Chantel- Boutique owner, Chantelle- Assisting team EFJ, Casey- Networking for team EFJ and the models

What? Best Of Both Boutique Fashion Show

When? Thursday 2nd August 2012

Where? Question Bar, Forest Hill, London

Why? To Style Models with ELISHA FRANCIS JEWELLERY

So Best Of Both is a boutique in Forest Hill owned by the lovely Chantel and Charley.

They sell glamorous dresses and shoes for glamorous women and to showcase this they wanted to put on a fashion show and pop up boutique and so they requested for ELISHA FRANCIS JEWELLERY to feature and accessorize the models on the night.

My role on the night involved dressing the models, styling them with the jewellery and making sure each model was ready for her next outfit for the runway.

I’ve styled and dressed before but not for a fashion show, so I was feeling the pressure trying to get each girl into there next look within the short space, so I was really glad that I brought along my good friend Kelvin (also a Fashionista) to help me out, for some reason my feet were aching and I wasn’t even wearing heels!

Once the show was over my next mission was to entice people over to the 

ELISHA FRANCIS JEWELLERY pop up boutique to indulge, which was quite easier than I thought (maybe it was to do with all the free champers going around ;))

Casey and Chantelle look great in EFJ Designs

This was the Ethnic look

This look was ethnic. Tribal. She reminded me of a gazelle.

 The necklace and harness was made out of acrylic nails!

and lots of them I'm sure it taken ELISHA FRANCIS a lot of time and effort.
