Shareen Sarwar turned her thrift-shopping hobby into a business with Vintage Mavens, an online specialty vintage shop and blog.
Sarwar, who has been a stylist for companies like Dolce & Gabbana and publications like Teen Vogue, partnered with acclaimed film-maker and photographer Alexandra Roxo for this ‘Stranded’ lookbook.
Influenced by misdirected waste that ends up in the ocean, the ladies took to Miami beach to have Sarwar pose as if washed up on shore.
I adore the sandy shots and fun props in this Vintage Mavens lookbook starring the brains and beauty behind the project.
