The diligent readers among you may have noticed that this particular blog is in fact a team effort, I, Nivaya Barbosa, am your writer, and the gorgeous photography, styling, and modelling in the pictures are provided by the beautiful SerinaJane Loon. For the most part, we're a smashing team, her photo-ing skills far outstripping mine, and my writing containing fewer typos than hers! There do, however, exist some difficulties in this arrangement on occasion, arising mainly from the fact that the stunner in the pictures is not actually me. Allow me to explain. Anyone who has seen Serina and I inworld together will know of the stark contrasts between our appearances, I being a petite, pale skinned, aqua-eyed, occasionally freckled redhead with a taste for the alternative and quirky, and Serina being tall, strong, athletic and dark skinned, and always looking as if she's stepped straight from the impeccable pages of Vogue. In this case, the particular difference is one of skin tone.
