The final photo shoot for the SWAP entry is good to go. I’ve assembled all the clothes [13 items which count as 11 for the SWAP, all the UNDERclothes, [7 items for the shoot], hats, footwear, accessories/props. The SWAP instructions say I can have up to 15 pics, including composites [lifesaver] and must include one shot of all 11 items together, to show that they work as a collection. This is hard as I don’t have a rail…so they were laid out ‘artistically’ on the floor, and up the stepladder I went.
I’m sweating cobs [as we say] and haven’t even started the actual shoot yet. Ah well, maybe it will count as a workout?
Here are the snaps so far:
And the SWAP garments:
In other news, I stripped the ironing board yesterday and found to my shame, that it had FOUR old covers still on it, with the bottom one so old the foam backing had all perished to dust. Dirty Fairy!
Right I need to clean up, do hair and makeup, get trussed into the corset, and drag the missus into David Bailey mode. Wish me luck.

Don’t you find getting the photos done for a post is the hard bit?

Normally not- I’m pretty snap happy, and don’t fuss too much over the quality [maybe I should…] I dash everything off in an almighty hurry to be honest. We’ve been snapping away for an hour or so now, having a tea break before I dehydrate completely! Much hilarity ensueth, I shall post later

Oops. Pressed go too early.
I meant to say how great all your SWAP looked – even just spread out or grouped to photograph. Well done 😃

We have had days and days of rain. I am going to charge up my camera tonight, and will have to try to sneak out while the rain lets up a little at a time. Last year I thought the photos were the hard part, and I got so overheated. I don’t envy you the corset, although I love love love the look of your SWAP!

Well its finally all come together but I feel that the photos don’t do it justice. The photos that you have posted during the last few months of you wearing everything have been fabulous. A great big well done on completing the challenge.

Good luck, I hope that it went well and that you and the missus are still talking to each there after all those photos. Your clothes look fabulous. I really would be hard pressed to choose a favourite as they are all wonderful (green jacket *cough, cough*). Looking forward to the final edit. Xx

It’s amazing to see the whole collection all together and what a feat of both imagination and endurance. Good luck with the photos too, and can I be second in line for the green jacket!
