Log in to replyWhere do you take all these amazing photos?!
Log in to replyAll the photos are ! sagdhsajJH !
Log in to replyoh what beautiful pictures! I love them all, but especially the one with the butterfly veil.
Log in to replyWow, I love this! The make up is gorgeous, and its stunning photography. I especially like the fact is resembles slightly some sort of twisted, Victorian fairytale. Amazing photos!
Log in to replyThis is one of my favourite shoots yet! I reckon we need a tutorial on making the crescent moon crown from picture 4.. :-)
Log in to replyLove these photos!!!!
Log in to replyAnd the style : D
I really like #11. For me it has a lot of that 1960s Rolling Stones/The Beatles photo-shoot in an English garden/manor house vibe.
Log in to replyI love #7 and 8! I also love the jewelled brooch and the jacket on #13. :))))
Log in to replyThose pictures are perfection – #12 is my favourite!

Log in to replyNumber 6! Holy Moly. I love it so much.
Log in to replyOh my god.
This may be my favorite shoot style-wise, but can we please get some MoC (models of color). I want to see girls who at least look like me in those cool clothes if I can’t afford them. :/
Log in to replyomigod. my brain is mixed up by the awesomeness of these…but i wish i could live inside number seven! oh, how i wish.

omg number 6
Log in to replyWhite girls wearing bindis = cultural appropriation. Maybe read about it (http://alagarconniere.blogspot.com/2010/04/critical-fashion-lovers-basic-guide-to.html) and try not to do it again, because it totally sucks.
Log in to replyI know, its not even close to halloween/fall anymore, but I cannot get over the epic WITCHYNESS of these photos!!!
Log in to replyi am not even close to being able to deal with how incredible this is
Log in to replyasdfghjkl
eleanor just keeps outdoing herself and that is saying something
explorer/opium dream/bored in a stately home/DIY-magic vibes = hijacking my thoughts
SRSTYGWYURGHEWIJKF SO GOOD I CANNOT
beautiful! :-)
Log in to replynumber 8 is amazing
Log in to replyOhmigosh I am so vibing this right now!! ( :
Log in to replywhere are those studded leggings from?
Log in to replyomg !!! this is amazing.
Log in to replylooks like a mix between heromine and queen victoria… love it!
IrmaVep has said exactly what I was about too, take note Rookie! Not cool.
I must say photo 7 is rather wonderful though.
Log in to replyagreed..instead of rockin the bindis and “ethnic” garb can we drop the shenanigans and get some women of color up in here?? multiculturalism is whack if its just for the viewing and consuming pleasure of privileged white folks.
it can’t be that hard to models who more accurately represent the wide readership of rookie (especially if you are sourcing models from agencies).
i know you all are just starting, BUT i know you can be truly radical ROOKIE, let’s talk about the intersectioning issues of sexism, racism, classism, homophobia, ageism, and MORE. we can’t end sexism without taking up arms against all form of oppression!
Log in to replyMidnight queen Biba baby with a paper moon. Absolutely gorgeous, Eleanor!
Log in to replySome of the best photos I’ve seen on Rookie! I adore the the veil in number three, you should sell them on etsy!
Log in to replyThis photo shoot reminds me of a book I just read called Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. Beautiful photos!!
Log in to replyAfter looking at this, I suddenly recalled I nearly identical vintage mexican jacket that was in my closet, only to find out my mom gave it to her friend.
Still, these are very nice.
Log in to replyA nearly identical. Excuse me.
Log in to replyis it too late to say how amazing this photos are?
love them all… esp. the legging by oasis…
Log in to replyas someone who has made my very own paper moon and loves playing with film/double exposures, i have to say i love photo number 2! but as irma vep and others have pointed out, #4 and #5 leave a bad taste in my mouth.
bindis aren’t just some random pretty sparkly thing for white girls to play with. i just posted a few links about this on my tumblr in greater detail about why it’s not cool, or edgy, or new fashion.
i’m all for being playful with fashion, and i get there is a halloween/costumey vibe to this photoshoot, but i think there are tons of other ways we can do that in an aesthetically pleasing way, without being appropriative. disappointed to see a rookie photoshoot that kind of falls into that trend.
Log in to replyStunning photos, so inspirational.
