Ruche - Spring Lookbook Teaser


This week, I had the privilege to work with the most awesome crew of photographers, models, hair stylists, and make up artists. We were working on Ruche's Spring Lookbook. Stephanie Williams and her husband Isaac where the photographers for the shoot and they were absolutely amazing! Stephanie's creativity was out of this world. She does weddings, portraits, catalogs, and product photography. Check out her site, she is really something!

As far as everyone else on the set, I've never seen so many talented people work so hard and have so much fun. The pictures may not show it, but the models were freezing! The sun didn't really help that much hehe. Sorry ladies! Thank you so much to everyone who was involved!

So after 8 hours of hard work for 15 people, 4000 pictures later, the results were out of this world...nothing short of perfect. Here are a couple teaser pictures from the shoot. There are PLENTY MORE to come =). Some of the items are already on sale, but the rest will be on sale towards the end of February.




Eleanor is wearing the "wrinkle in time ivory dress" and "mustredevilliars grey tapestry coat", and geranium stone embroidered clutch. This is the same outfit I used to style the Madame Bijou concept for Vasti. I just love it!


Sunisa is wear the cream sparrow nest ruffle top tucked into the mint n chip flower skirt (necklace coming later).



Andrea is wearing the ripple yellow organic v-neck tank underneath the picnic date eyelet light spring jacket, red braided shoulder bag, and mustard floral ring. Pants and crochet necklace coming later.




The "bumblebee tuxedo high waisted dress" is currently out of stock, but coming back in March.

The pictures are great! Just as a thought since people are naturally curious about what another person bought - how about adding a 'the last 3 purchases' from shopruche. It would be interesting!

She does look like Freida Pinto!

May, thanks for the suggestion! What about the "people who liked this item also bought this", kinda like what amazon has? Do you think customers like seeing that?

Yes I know I would be very curious! Its like if I bought a top, I might like to peek at what someone else bought to match the item. Although this way your popular items will run out very quickly!

Kelly - Thanks Kelly! I'm glad you liked them =)

May - I'll have to try this out. I'll let you know when it is up. Except I don't know your email address, so just check back on the blog sometime.

Hillary - I know, it was really hard to show the shoes in the middle of all that grass. But no worries, there will be some pictures with the shoes when the lookbook comes out.

Heather - Thanks a bunch! I know, Stephanie is awesome!
