Vintage Toy for Gloomth

November 4, 2018October 29, 2018 missdollymonroe1 Comment

This week I have another lovely photoset for you from my shoot with Gloomth & The Cult of the Melancholy! This time I am donning the “Vintage Toys” skater dress. The incredible prints used in these dresses were designed by Gloomth’s Taeden Hall from a composite of her own found objects. I am so blown away by the creativity she brings to Gloomth through her designs, drawings, and photography. Taeden is truly a multitalented creator with an unending supply of twisted ideas and it’s always such a joy to work with her!

Enjoy!

Way back in August I had the absolute pleasure of working with the incredible beauty that is Nymph Suicide! We found the perfect spot behind Massey Hall in Toronto for this fun little pinup shoot.

Nurse Dolly for Gloomth

October 22, 2018 missdollymonroe1 Comment

Happy October and Happy (almost) Halloween!!

I’ve been a busy bee for the past few months doing lots of shoots, both in front of and behind the camera, and I’m ready to get back to posting regularly here at Classically Curvy!

To start off, I had a lovely time modelling for the alternative fashion brand Gloomth & The Cult of the Melancholy in a few of their classic skater style dresses. The first look was this whimsical “Doll Hospital” dress. We were lucky enough to find the perfect setting in front of an out of commission ambulance to shoot this look.

Enjoy!

Well hunnies, it’s been a very busy year so far and it’s time I took a little break. For the month of August I’ll be hitting the pause button and won’t be doing any blog updates. If you’re missing me, don’t fret! I will continue to update you on my life on my personal Instagram and on the Dolly Shots Instagram too!

Enjoy the summer sun and I’ll see you in September with lots of new content!!

It’s a little hazy in here today…

I recently dug up this incredible vintage t-shirt that belonged to my mom back in the day and somehow squeezed into it for this fun photoset! Here in Canada we are currently working towards legalizing marijuana for real and it’s pretty amazing to think about how far we have come on this issue, but we still have much further to go. More on that in October!
