BEHIND THE SCENES:
CAPE TOWN SHOOT
As our latest SS16 Chloe Lewis Collection makes its much anticipated arrival, we take a sneak peek behind the scenes of the collection’s photo-shoot in sunny South Africa. Our favourite Essex girl, Chloe Lewis, along with the Little Mistress team jetted off to sunny Cape Town to shoot the new collection in absolutely stunning locations! From the cutest colour blocked houses to stunning beaches and a palm tree oasis, the Little Mistress team bring you a little snapshot of summer and plenty of SS16 styling inspiration in Chloe’s new exciting collection! Join us as we delve behind the scenes in Cape Town, from where the team loved to eat to Chloe’s photo ready make-up looks, we’ve got you covered!

DINNER:
BELUGA: This was Chloe’s favourite spot out of the whole trip to grab a quick lunch or dinner after shooting. The South African and Asian fusion restaurant had sushi, dim sum and fresh seafood on tap! Chloe’s fave dish was the peanut satay squid- which the whole team eventually got addicted to!
DRINKS:
KLOOF STREET HOUSE:
Vibrant with Shoreditch vibes and the best cocktails in town. Fairy-lit gardens set in an oasis of palm trees were dotted around this cocktail bar. It’s got a chilled vibe and a reasonably priced cocktail menu- I would highly recommend!

BEHIND THE SCENES
BEACH:
CAMPS BAY:
This is where we shot the Chloe Lewis Swimwear campaign which is now live on our website. Chloe braved the cold Atlantic seas at the beach but the scorching sun which hits around 10am definitely made up for it! This was one of Chloe’s favourite sun bathing spots with its sheltered bay and stunning landscape.
SHOP:
THE OLD BISCUIT MILL:
If you are into fashion, music or art then this is the place to be! So many indie craftsman and skandi design houses nestled into this old warehouse space. The market is best for; brunch, handmade jewellery, straight out of uni fashion designers and handbags.
043
MORE SHOPPING:
VICTORIA WHARF CENTRE:
If you love shopping and want the classic high-street brands as well as indie labels then this is the place to go. Head into the old-school Woolworths for a super cheap but luxurious pedi, much needed after multiple shoot days!
SIGHTSEEING:
BO KAAP:
This area in Cape Town is a must see for any culture vultures out there! The place has amazing architecture, a vibrant community and stunning natural light (for all those cute instagram pics!) Head there first thing in the morning though because after 3 in the afternoon it gets pretty crazy.

DRESS TO IMPRESS
Larisa Costea of fashion, travel & lifestyle blog The Mysterious Girl took some time out from shooting one of her glam looks to gives us a low down on special occasion and date dressing. Larisa’s style is all about high-impact, head turning looks which will have people falling at your feet. For this Q&A she has chosen feminine pieces with sparkle and embellishment form the Little Mistress Collection
047
Q&A’s MY SIGNATURE STYLE... I am very much in love with basic items, mostly in black and white because I believe that simplicity is the peak of beauty. You can easily add a statement accessory, such as jewellery, shoes or bag. Of course from time to time I spice it up with a more sophisticated look. MY TOP TIP FOR STYLING A DATE NIGHT LOOK... No matter what I wear, I never forget to put on some floral perfume. It is the final touch to a perfect date outfit. FASHION MOTTO... Not just my fashion motto, but a motto for everything that I do, is that if you want something you have to work for it everyday and never let go of a dream.

LARISA COSTEA
MY PERFECT DATE NIGHT... Would include quality time with my hubby! I don’t need any special arrangement, because we always like to make it special at home, with home-made dinner and a bottle of prosecco, for example. We light up a candle or two and play some soft music in the background while we talk about our day. Of course, I never say no to any kind of surprises!
IF I COULD RAID ANYONE’S WARDROBE, IT WOULD BE... Olivia Palermo’s by far! I fell in love with her chic style, and I do find inspiration in her outfits from time to time.
THE THING THAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT THE LITTLE MISTRESS BRAND IS... The effervescent dresses along with the stylish shoes that bring out the feminine details. I can always find exactly what I am looking for there! MY DATE NIGHT BEAUTY REGIME... If I have a special evening to go to, I would first of all take care of my face, so I can feel it fresh and clean in order to put my make-up on more smoothly. I’ll afterwards do my hair, probably with some loose curls, and pick my outfit, if I don’t already have it planned out. MY GO-TO DATE NIGHT OUTFIT... Would probably be something very chic but comfortable at the same time, as I would not want to feel like anything else but relaxed, so I can enjoy every moment.
048
THE FASHION ITEM THAT I COULDN’T LIVE WITHOUT ON DATE NIGHT... Does my cellphone count? I guess not, so I would have to go for a lovely clutch instead! My collection of this particular item is growing, and I just love how small and easy to handle they are. Big enough to just fit my phone, some cash, and lipstick... Why would a girl need anything else on date night, right?

Q&A’s HOW DO YOU STYLE NUDE TONES FOR THE PERFECT DAYTIME LOOK? For the new season coming up, I love to pair nudes with denim or white pieces. It’s the perfect Spring daytime look WHAT COLOUR BEST COMPLEMENTS A NUDE FASHION PALETTE? Nudes and black in winter, nudes and white in Spring WHAT ARE YOUR TOP TIPS FOR STYLING BOLD COLOURS? When styling around a bold item, I personally pick pieces with neutral colours, so the bold item really is the star of the look

INES MANIQUE
WHEN WEARING BOLD TONES, WHAT IS YOUR GO-TO MAKE-UP LOOK? A black winged liner and a nude lip
HOW DO YOU ACCESSORISE FOR DAY AND NIGHT-TIME LOOKS WHEN STYLING BOLD COLOURS? Preferably I pair a bold item with a black leather jacket, you can rock it both day and night
WHAT ARE YOUR TOP TIPS FOR STYLING A STRIPY LOOK? I believe stripes go with everything. You can pair it with black, white, and bold colours. Looks fashionable either way! You can even mix stripes with other patterns for a funky twist WHAT IS YOUR PERSONAL GO-TO STRIPY LOOK? A stripy shirt, high waisted denim jeans, a military cap and some ankle western boots are the perfect combo
056
HOW DO YOU GIVE CLASSIC MONOCHROME STRIPES A FRESH TWIST FOR THE NEW SEASON? Wear stripes in a piece with a funky modern shape to it, like the cut-out stripy dress I’m styling

We take a sneak peek into the life of a Fashion Photographer, from the bloggers she would love to work with to her most played song. Read on for the inside scoop…
MY FAVOURITE BLOGGER SHOOT HAS BEEN.. Shooting a series of Christmas outfits for ‘Reiss’ with Victoria from ‘In The Frow’ at the ‘W Lounge’ in London. THE THREE THINGS THAT I COULDN’T LIVE WITHOUT.. Jamie (my nephew), my camera, Coffee THE BEST THING ABOUT MY JOB IS..
MY TYPICAL DAY.. I don’t really have a typical day, it varies depending on whether I’m shooting or based in the office for the day. But whatever the day it usually starts with coffee.
FIND GOOD LIGHTING The perfect lighting will make your skin glow - stand in natural light and shoot in the golden hours (the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset)
I’m getting to do a job that I’m extremely passionate about, which I’m very thankful for. It brings me so much joy and I feel so privileged to be doing something I love as my full time job. I am able to meet so many inspiring and influential people through my job which I LOVE!
IN MY WORK I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR.. Organising shoots, having good relationships with my clients and brands that I work with on a regular basis and editing my shoots and sending the finished photos onto the client/brand. I regularly update my blog and website with recent shoots.
PERFECT SELFIE

Q&A’s WHAT IS YOUR GO-TO SHOE STYLE? My feet are really sensitive and they get blisters all the time, so I try to find good quality soft leather shoes, stylish, on-trend and comfortable at the same time WHAT IS YOUR TOP TIP FOR STYLING A STATEMENT SHOE? I’ve always been a shoe fanatic, ever since I was a child. On a permanent quest for the most jaw-dropping style, the statement shoe has been at the epicentre of my take on fashion. Styling beautiful shoes with personality means leaving everything simple and emphasising on one piece. It is so easy to ruin an incredible outfit if you lack flair, so unless you are Iris Apfel, let your shoes in charge of the conversation
