Racy Ladies of Tatler…

Racy Ladies by Kristian Schuller (Tatler UK May 2011) 1_2

 

What do your lucky eyes see when Tatler teams up with dynamic fashion photographer Kristian Schuller, models Sacha Blue, Elena Sudakova, and Jessica Stenebo, all tantalizingly showing off the most delicious fashion and accessories? MAGIC! Pure magic. Sophisticated and elegant, I am in love with these looks! I’d say it’s time to end the Eternal Slouch trend; time to hold our heads high instead and have some fun!
