Ice Cold Model Behavior

 Photos taken by: Nyasziah Velez
Modeled by: Priscilla Ivette (me)

          I always  love being the subject for photographers just as much as I love designing, it just  feels great to let my free spirit out and be on various sides of the fashion world. Here's a very exciting glimpse of what I have been up to as of lately! These were taken about two weeks ago in the freezing cold as I wore my free People favs and some hair extensions. It's kind of hard to believe looking at these lovely photos, just how cold I actually was.

 As of lately I have been pretty busy working on quite a few exciting projects for my line and more. Can't wait to share them with you lovely readers! & I just have to say, Thank you for being patient with me!

That crazed hippie child

 

     Shooting for @Modedangereux is always an interesting yet fantastic experience, here's from our last shoot together, as I was the subject for her portfolio. I think she emulated me perfectly considering I love messy flower filled hair, lace and natural almost cave woman style make up haha. Also since she is an artist and photographer she decided to paint over lace on my back to see it's natural affect, and she decided to do this with harsh colors like black and silver which added this crazy unexpected contrast which I fell in love with!
     Over the years I have grown more in touch with my natural side, and the bohemian style is something that never fails to inspire me every single day. Honestly I have to thank Free People for that, they exposed me to what is now my favorite style, and lifestyle if you will.
     I have to say although the photos came out fantastic I would not recommend, anyone who ever want's to explore just how artsy their body can be, to do this with acrylic paint! This stuff was incredibly difficult to take off, of course considering it's not meant for body painting haha well lesson learned here. Hope you all are having a nice Saturday before the winter storm hits!

                                                   Never stop expressing yourself, and pushing your creativity.

Express yourself...

The joy of being related to a photographer, is having the privilege to say hey do my make up and let's take pictures! Lol ! Believe it or not these great shots were actually taken while I was sitting on a washing machine, while my eight year old cousin controlled lighting. Talk about being resourceful!! I am so impressed with the way these came out and I couldn't resist showing you the amazing results, I hope these are portfolio worthy! If you like these great shots my cousin shot, here's her lovely instagram --> @ModeDangereux

Down by the water...

 ...This week we had one super beautiful preview of summer, with one day of 80 degree weather. Oh, what a tease this was for me. Thankfully a lovely friend of mine, Kelly wanted me to model for her magazine class, which not only gave me a chance to be apart of her wonderful photography, it also gave me a chance to prance in my favorite summer gear and just be free....

Blooming Spring

About this look:

This is definitely one of my laid back days... well when ever I throw these loose Levi's on it always seems to give me this laid back comfortable feeling, and who wouldn't want that on a gorgeous day anyway? Also I finally found an excuse to pull my favorite Spring/Summer flats out :) I am seriously obsessed with these bad boys, I feel like they add an amazing touch to any outfit from a short summer dress, a long maxi, to... well, these baggy jeans. :] 

I love being comfortable and wearing loose, baggy things, [which makes me miss my long hair even more]  I just feel like I'm missing a huge part of my Boho/ Edgy style but I guess this has also given me an excuse to go hat shopping for interesting hats. Speaking of hats, the one above is from the 50's and I love this thing so much, I bought it Freshman year from this amazing Vintage shop --> http://www.familyjewelsnyc.com/ You can only buy things from the store itself but it's so worth the visit. 

Lately:

Lately I've been searching and discovering a bunch of Thrift stores in Brooklyn, where [I currently reside] and in Manhattan [where I practically live]. Hopefully soon, when I do my Spring shopping I will post more amazing vintage and thrifty finds for you lovely readers.

 So this is pretty much proof of my crazed obsession with Flowers. 

Now that it's Spring and they seem to be everywhere I can't help but snap countless photos of these beauties. This is actually a garden I pass everyday on my walk to the train, and I have to say I love the touches they add to this garden everyday, the statues honestly make me feel like this is some mystical garden in a magical land. Finally we are escaping this bitter weather and entering something Beautiful, 

Spring.
