44) It'll Be A Good Day Today

Cause i'm really diggin my outfit! I tried something different today and so far so good :) I am definetly going to try and get a picture of it to post either by the end of the night or tomorrow at some point since my class was cancelled. ALSO i will be posting some more assignment photos that i've done in the past two weeks and from today's photo shoots that i am doing! And lastly, my bff's from school are taking me out to dinner to Moxies for a belated birthday present and afterwards hanging out with my sorority sisters and there will be some fierce outfits from all of these lovely ladies so i will also post some photos from later tonight !

It's going to be a long day but it will all be worth it in the end!

For now, here are some more fashion-inspired photos that i can never get enough of.

43) WOMEN X WOMEN

ATTN ALL TORONTONIANS AND FELLOW RESIDENTS OF THE GTA!

WOMEN X WOMEN is an exhibition part of the LG Fashion Week that showcases Canada's top Fashion Photographers. I went to it last year with my bff Leviana and her momma because her cousin Angela Lewis was showcasing her photos! (NOTE: She's one of the returning photographers for 2010!) We went during the day but it was so amazing, there were so many talented women and photographs!

This year the public exhibition will take place April 2nd 2010, 11-5 pm at the Thrush Holmes Empire located on 1093 Queen Street West in Toronto. The main website has the full list of photographers that will have their work on display, check them out they are truly amazing!

42) First studio lighting assignment.



They're nothing totally amazing; the assignment was to use available light in a portrait shot. The two girls are Nicole and Laura from my program-they were totally awesome models :)

38) sigh.

I haven't really been diggin my clothes/closet the past few days. My mornings consist of me changing my outfit like twenty times before i get fed up and settle for a sweater so i can just get out the door. This needs to change asap! Any suggestions?!

35) To Do List

Hello all of you lovely people!

It is way too late but unfortunetly i cannot sleep and i have not posted in way too long! I wanted to give a little update and things that will hopefully come in the near future! I have successfully made it through my first week of second semester and everything seems to be going smoothly so far. I like all of my profs and all of my classes seem to be keeping my interest which is great news lol. Although i'm looking forward to the topics i'll be learning about, the workload is slightly daunting between school, work, family, friends and extra curriculars but i'm hoping i'll be able to manage it all with no problems!

As for fashionshakers, these are some posts that i am hoping to get finished in the next week or two since my work schedule has calmed down since Christmas holiday's are over:

- updated photos of my shopping spree and my newly cleaned out and organized closet
- more posts on my slowly progressing sense of style !
- posts to do with my in class studio photos that i will be printing out for assignments etc that will hopefully have a more fashion focused esthetic and subject matter to them
- some more posts with upcoming designer lines as well as new arrivals for the usual wishlists of forever 21, urban outfitters, heritage 1981 and modcloth :)

I know it's not much for now but i'm hoping if i start out with small goals i'll pick up a better routine in posting regularly so check up often and as always feel free to email me anything that catches your eye that you might like to see posted up here OR if you want to do some shameless self advertising and want your particular blog featured here, send me some info and i'll do a blog of the week post: amandaurbs@gmail.com

peace&love!
