Banana Republic top, Wilfred shorts, Coach bag
Whenever someone is helping me take photos, I always ask them to take a "detail" shot: I like the way they saturate the photo with the interesting parts in an outfit and show the mix of colours and textures. As summer draws to a close, here are some detail shots from some of my favourite looks this summer as well as a few that have never made it on to the blog.
Zara dress, Ferragamo belt, necklace from The Bay | original post here
Forever 21 cardigan, H&M blouse, Club Monaco belt, Cacharel shirt, MICHAEL Michael Kors bag
J. Crew cardigan, Talula oxford, H&M skirt (similar) | original post here
David's shirt, Forever 21 skirt, mom's belt
Modcloth blouse, Wilfred shorts, clutch from Sharon | original post here
Zara dress, Wilfred belt (similar), H&M hat, bag from local boutique

I love these types of shots, it is so fun to see the outfit up close, and they remind me of reading a magazine, which is a good thing! Your outfits are always so chic and lovely Jen, love this post!

Sometimes I think the detail shots are better than the actual full-length ones! Plus they're easier for us bloggers to take b/c then we don't have to put on "cool" facial expressions haha

I'm always a big fan of detail shots! But the fact that you put some of them together it makes it look so artsy! I love it.

Jen, my love. I haven't left a comment for a while, but know that I stalk you everyday. tee hee. :)
I love your detailed shots. I think it something all fashion bloggers should do, especially when they don't have a fancy schmancy camera. I'm guilty of that. So, that's why I always try to include a close up shot, since you can't really see the "details" in the head to toe shot.
You're lucky you have a lot of people that love you and willingly take photos for you... and fabulous photos all the time too! I wish I lived near, so I could "hire" them to be my photog too. LOLS. I kid. The hubbs does a great job, even with my little crappy P+S.
Well, I hope you have a wonderful weekend. We're throwing a little bday party for my dad tomorrow. Time to get my grub on. :)
Kisses.
xx Love & Aloha

Your detail shots are all so lovely... There really are so many subtle layers of colour and texture in your looks that can't be done complete justice unless you get a close up :)

Jen, your detail shots always summarize up the story each outfit portrays. i love each one and it's great to see them together too!! helps me when i'm trying to come up with ways to photograph things myself. you are always a inspiration. xoox ♥

Your photographers definitely have it down. My designer/photographer husband still can't figure it out. Makes me sad.

With the rise of metrosexuality in the early 2012, men's tee shirts took on a tighter, sleeker look. Fashionable tees became a staple of a man's wardrobe, allowing style-conscious gentlemen to express themselves through shirts sporting creative art and cheeky slogans. http://www.gotapparel.com
