I've known Monika for a few years, and I am in love with her simple, minimal yet delicate aesthetic. She creates the most beautiful jewelry for her line, Favor Jewelry. She's also a woman who knows what she likes and is not afraid to take charge--an attitude I can definitely get behind! Gotta love an all-women shoot!
We gathered in Monika's studio to create some fun pairings for the 2015 winter lookbook. Christy did a stunning job with the photography, and Kara wore the pieces with grace and strength (Kara was actually in a spread in the last issue of Liner--you should check out her geodesic dome business). It was such a fun collaboration!
Makeup products used: Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation in Ivory, Inglot Freedom System (contour shades), Mark Touch & Glow Shimmer Cream Cube in Coral Glow (extra special to me because Kelsey Deenihan and Lucy Hale introduced me to it when I met with them this year), Glossier The Balm Dotcom (for highlight on her brow bones, collarbones, shoulders and cheeks), W3ll People Expressionist Mascara in black and Revlon ColorBurst Lacquer Balm in Enticing.
You can shop the Favor Jewelry winter collection now.
Thanks so much, Monika!
