AMY SCHEEPERS | DKNY MYNY

DKNY celebrates the city and the women who reside in it, as part of the new fragrance MYNY.  As part of the festivities Elle Magazine South Africa has asked young, up and coming female photogs to translate what puts their city on a global creative map through visual narrative. One such creative is fully time photog and my favourite blogger Amy Scheepers.

I find that living in a city like Cape Town affects your way of dressing in so many ways. The biggest way, in my opinion, is how inspired you always are by the people around you, the city’s beautiful architecture, busy schedules, and general creativity. How can you not take it all in and come out with a sense of style that is uniquely you? I photographed 5 women who not only have very distinct and different styles, but are also all amazing creatives and inspiring people. To go alongside their image I deconstructed their outfits into a few key pieces and ‘dressed the city.

Shot at cape town city hall, I love the vintage feel through out the series of looks, which comprises of chunky knitwear and florals in the most amazing colours from various boutiques around Cape Town.

New obsession New love, the Michelle Viljoen inspiration.

I find that my life and blog are getting rather monotonous each and everyday, being an explorer of the web, I recently discovered the amazing work of Michelle Viljoen (see: papercitylife) and from I was truely inspired. I absolutely love his photos, motionless yet tell a story.

So to bring the spark back to my life, I will be soon taking photography lesson (not sure when and where), so i can capture the amazing memonts of my (fashion) life.

The recent work of Michelle Viljoen, hope you get inspired too. x
