Back in the day, my dad was really into photography, and his favorite subject was my mom. As a result, I’ve ended up with an incredible collection of amazing photos of Linda. Besides the fact that film photos are super cool, my mom has always had fantastic style. I’ve been holding on to these photos for a while now, and every time I look through them, I can’t help but think she would have been an incredible blogger.
Arielle, my talented photographer, and I thought it’d be fun to recreate some of these awesome photos with a modern twist, and it really sparked our creativity. It was a blast shopping for similar outfits, finding the perfect spots, getting all the details right, and just taking a little trip back in time to relive my mom’s past years.
Since it was such a fun experience, I want you all to join in too! I just came up with this idea, and I’m super excited because it’s going to be a blast. Plus, being the nostalgic person I am, I can’t wait to see what you guys come up with.
Introducing the Fashionlush Recreation Photo Challenge! I’m challenging all of you to recreate a cool photo of your mom—or it could be your dad or you as a kid. As long as you’re recreating an old photo, you’re in the challenge! I’ll choose the best recreation photos to win an awesome prize!
Here are the official rules:
– To participate, all you need to do is recreate a vintage photo of your mom (or dad/grandma/your younger self).
– Post the photo with a slide showing the original. Use the hashtag #FASHIONLUSHPHOTOCHALLENGE and tag me on Instagram so I can see your pics.
– I will choose one winner every two weeks for two whole months, so you have plenty of time to get your looks ready, find locations, take photos, and more!
Have fun with this, and share it with your friends too—the more, the merrier!
