Cheryl Cole Stateside style

After recent events, Cheryl Cole has once again been the talk of the nation due to her hasty exit from the US version of X factor. There have been so many speculations as to what actually happened, and why America didn’t gel to her.

There was a lot of emphasis on her style when she was stateside, it seemed everyone couldn’t wait to see what outfit she stepped out in. There have even been rumors that allegedly Cheryl had to lose 2 stones to ensure she would become a well liked style icon. So the question is, did her stylist let her down?

While Cheryl was in America, we did see her want to take more risk with her outfits. The color blocking outfit was a prime example of this, the outfit was ‘meh’ ok, but I do think Cheryl and her stylist were probably trying a little too hard to be this amazingly, on trend fashion icon. I don’t think that big hair helped her either.

I think we know Cheryl for her effortless, fashion forward style, I don’t necessarily think this translated well when she went stateside. For me, I don’t think she needs to change her style or anything she was just good as is.

Awesome Photographer

Last week was a really hectic week but also quite fun. I went along with my friend (who is a photographer) to the NEC for the Focus on Imaging exhibition, it’s always quite fun to see how much stuff goes into making a really cool picture and seeing the gallerys of very talented photographers. But the best part of the afternoon was getting to see John Wright talk about photography in general and then getting to meet him afterwards!

I have been a fan of his photography for a while now and it was really nice meeting a nice and down to earth individual. He had nothing but good advice to give to my friend and I know she was so stoked to be having a conversation with him.

John Wright is known for his photography of the stars, he’s shot the likes of Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Cheryl Cole and many more.

He also does fashion photography aswell and it was great to find out some of the techniques he uses to create some wonderful images (although I didn’t quite understand it all, but I am not a photgrapher afterall).

It was a really great informative experience and a chance to look at some awesome pictures at the same time.
