Behind the scenes at the Sugarpill shoot!

Hi! Here are some “behind the scenes” pics from the makeup shoot.


Cousin Itt gets a makeover

I spent 938247234 hours trying to sew/staple some ill-fitting gloves on Lauren. Gave up. Fuck you, cheap Leg Avenue gloves!

Just testin’ the lights

Ann’s turn!

Hi!

Fixin’ stuff up

Ann’s turn!

Ice cream break! Kevin is small.

Lauren relaxing between set change. I can’t wait to post pics from the super crazy set we built, but for now it’s a secret. I’ve been keeping lots of secrets! Shhhh

Lauren, your ride is here!

  • Lexxii says:

    awe! lauren looks adorable, the set looks amazing & that doll is absolutely fabulous. i’m excited for the pictures (:

    • shrinkle says:

      Oooh I am DYING to post pictures of the set we built, but I’m trying not to give too much away before we actually launch the website. I’m driving myself crazy trying to keep so many secrets, haha! Many sleepless nights ahead!

  • Mermaid says:

    My goodness these are absolutely beautiful and they’re just behind the scenes.

    I have those Betsey Johnson boots in black! Wonderful taste, lady.

    • shrinkle says:

      Ha, right back at you on the exquisite taste in shoes! I’m just bummed that they’re harder to wear during these hot summer months. Can’t wait till it gets cold again!

      • Mermaid says:

        They are really hard to wear in the summer months, and it also just feels right to wear them in December around the holidays, but they’re so cute all the time. Dilemma.

  • Charissa says:

    You are right. She’s totally cute and I want a pocket size if her.

    Ohhh very cute and lovely pics!! it looks you had great fun :D
    I love the last pic outfit in back with the cat!!!!!
    more pics please!! :D

    • shrinkle says:

      That cat toy is really funny. It was just a cheap Halloween prop, and we didn’t think much of it. But upon closer inspection, we noticed it has a VAGINA!!! We couldn’t believe they would do that. I should have taken pictures!!

  • Sarah says:

    Where did you ladies get that lovely white dress you shot her in!? i’m super excited for your new (to us) endeavor!!!!!

  • Daninipanini says:

    Ahh! This looks so exciting. You’ve captured my all-time favorite aesthetic, I must admit.
    I would also like to know where that dress came from (or did you make it…?) and the necklace as well.
    <3

    • shrinkle says:

      Um, first, your name is too cute!

      And yes I made the dress. The necklace I got from a super cheesy store called “So Good” (yes, that’s really what they are called)! It’s this brightly-lit store with wall to wall bling for miles. I usually get a headache if I spend more than 5 minutes in there because of all the sparkle! And the employees follow you around to make sure you don’t steal anything. Most of the stuff is gawdy, but they do have a lot of cute, cheap stuff!

      Not sure where you live, but I heard those stores are everywhere. :-)

  • yume ninja says:

    ahh! you guys are so adorable :D i’m so excited about this entire venture.

  • Rothrandom says:

    Ilovethatdressilovethatdressilovethatdress!!!!!

    Everything looks beautiful and I can’t wait to see the finished product! Guuuuh!!! This is as equally exciting as New Moon!!! I’m such a dork, but it means I’m super duper excited!

    • shrinkle says:

      Thank you! It’s probably my favorite dress I’ve ever made.

      Ok, I have to confess: I’m such an old person, I seriously had to google “New Moon” because I didn’t know what it was, hahahahahahaha!!!! Yeaaaaah I think I need to get out more. :-}

  • Catalyzes says:

    Lauren is perfect for your line :D <3 I'm so excited!!! Yay!

  • camille says:

    Amy!! I love these!! I’m so excited, you have the most gorgeous model anyone could ever ask for and this all looks so amazing!

  • Mulysa says:

    OMG! Those pics are amazing!! And I LOVE her dress! Will you be making more of those? I’d definately buy one in my size!

    • shrinkle says:

      Thanks Mulysa!! And unfortunately I can’t make another dress exactly like that again, as I used mostly vintage fabrics for it. I’ll probably make something similar though, just in different colors and fabrics! :-D

  • ShilynJoy says:

    omg! I love it :D your model looks like a doll :D

  • Sonar says:

    The model is gorgeous! I love her outfit and make-up! :D

  • NikVicious says:

    When does your makeup line come out? I’m basically addicted to all makeup and always feel like I never have enough. In fact, I just came across surgeon-x and I’ve got my eye on some brushes and eye shadows

  • Dolly August says:

    She looks so much like someone know. But I must say, she looks like a great choice! Can’t wait for the site to finally go live. I need some new brightly coloured make up! D:
