I had noticed Alex's 2 looks before I had the chance to ask her if I could take her picture. So it was great that she was up for letting me photograph both. Alex works in PR for a company called Kaper. She is a Londoner and lives in Dalston. Her favourite place in the capital is the Welcome Collection in Euston. Her style influences are music and especially Yolandi Visser from Die Antwood and her best friend who she says "is always beautifully turned out". She also describes herself as a magpie "when I see gold things I just want them". Her first surprise is that she used to own a hedgehog. Her second is her love of horses. She used to go to Pony club and still judges competitions. Alex has also ridden professionally, mainly dressage. She keeps her horse at her Mum and Dads and goes home every couple of weeks to ride it. Outfit 1. Alex is wearing a top from Dorothy Perkins, jeans are Criminal Damage and shoes are her nans. The scarf around her bun was a present from her best friend. In outfit 2. Alex is wearing a shirt from Topshop, Lee jeans, Converse and is carrying a vintage bag.

Another cape. I am just loving these at the moment. This is a Zara one. I spotted Michelle when she was in Starbucks buying her morning coffee and knew I had to photographer her. Michelle is the head of print production at VCCP and is a London girl from Battersea. Her style is totally mood dependent and she will dress up or down accordingly. For inspiration Michelle will look at a lot a sites like Net-A-Porter then go find the equivalent on the high street. The rest of her look today consists of shirt and boots from River Island, leggings Dorothy Perkins and under her cape is a Mulberry bag. She would like to learn to shoot and has just applied for a gun license. The main reason she told me she would like to learn to shoot is to hone her concentration skills.

Samantha is at college in Herts studying to a air hostess/cabin crew. She loves travel and figures if you can be paid for something you love to do you should go for it. Wise words. If we all did the things in life we loved to do we would all be a lot happier. He style influences are a vintage and designer mix up. Surprisingly she like to play her XBox and favourite game is Call of Duty. Here she is wearing a cardy from Urban Outfitters, jumper and shorts from Topshop, boots Hunter, bag Dorothy Perkins and necklace from New Look.

Out and about....Stephanie from Dorothy Perkins

Stephanie was on her way to work when we met. She is the digital marketing manager at Dorothy Perkins and also looks after their blog. For style inspiration she looks to the street, music and the catwalk, she likes to be ahead on trends. Surprisingly Stephanie has a twin brother who she says is male visual replica of herself. For the shot Stephanie is wearing a dress and boots from Dorothy Perkins (good to see she is supporting the brand). Her jacket is vintage, bag is from ASOS and socks from Topshop.

I have made it through to the Vogue Photo blog shortlist. There are still 97 other hopefuls. I would love it if you would leave a comment for me here.
