GUEST INTERVIEW || FASHION, FITNESS MODEL & BLOGGER - ROWAN ROW!

 

 

A month or so ago I travelled down to London with Solo Che Models for a fashion shoot that Rowan and our model Jessica where both doing. This is where I met Mr Row.

The shoot was great, we had lots of fun, a nice meal after with the team and of course ... amazing photographs!

 

Kindly Rowan has agreed to do this interview with me to let more people know what he's all about and what he does.

So doing some research I know that Rowan is a great dancer, a fitness model, a fitness and diet instructor and a fashion killa!

Secretly Rowan really enjoys milk and cookies but due to constantly been up and moving for around 8 years now it has helped him keep a great figure, which then means clothing looks fantastic on him.

 

Rowan has competed in competitions where his body was judged and did very well, this was an extra push to get serious with the fitness and make it a way of life.

 

Many people recognise Rowan Row from the UK famous ''Dream Boys'' who are very successful and indeed great looking!

 

 

 

 

 

 

BLOG

 

1: Can you tell me a little about yourself & your blog?

I'm currently a Fitness and Fashion lover living in the UK London.

Here to share my love, my passion and dedication with all other fitness and fashion lovers out there, get ideas about style and tips on how to maintain a lean/aesthetic physique all year round.

 

2: How long have you been running your blog?

 

I started my blog just over 2 months ago.

 

3: What inspired you to start up a blog?

 

Basically I started to get messages from most of my followers regarding fitness and fashion, for example most common question would be “loving your outfit today where did you get that jumper from?” so I though its easier to start up a blog and describe my style also where the clothes are provided from.

So yeah id say the main inspiration would be my followers and their requests.

 

4: Is your blog more of a hobby or a business platform?

 

Started as a hobby so let’s see where does it goes.

 

5: Where are you aiming to get in the blogging industry?

 

My main aim at the moment is to start collaborating with few companies to represent their products and clothing range, creating new styles for all my followers, fitness and fashion lovers out there.

 

6: What is your main tip for somebody who is considering

starting a blog?

 

Main tip is to be active and very selective with the work you put on your blog. Be yourself.

 

 

 

 

FASHION

 

7: What would you call your style and why do you dress the way you do?

 

I consider myself a man of many styles. For those who are wondering why that is, its only because I don’t go for one particular style... I do like a change sometimes and a good mixture of different styles.

 

8: What tips can you give a model who is doing fashion photography?

 

Keep it simple but significant.

 

9: Are you into finding old clothes and making them look good with modernised clothing?

 

I do love a good, vintage style and the answer is yes.

 

10: Do you prefer High street brands or more upscale brands?

 

I don’t really mind. Both are good...

 

11: How do you take your own images that are fashion based on your blog?

 

This is going to be funny:

Well, basically I use a tripod that connects with a remote control that is connected to my DSLR camera.

Sometimes people walk past me and they wondering “what the hell is he doing..?” but hey! When you have passion for something nothing can stop you!

 

 

 

 

LIFESTYLE

 

12: What do you do to stay in shape?

 

Well I started my journey as an athlete runner at age 10 for a total of 8 years, then I got into fitness and dancing so basically since then I never stop doing physical activities so my body is very use to it.

And of course one of the very important facts is the diet.

 

 

13: What is your number 1 tip for anybody involved in fitness and training?

 

Id say one of the most important thing is being well disciplined.

 

 

14: Is dancing a good way of staying fit?

 

Hat off to this question.

Dancing is a very good way to keep a nice and healthy physique.

 

15: What can you recommend to people who are trying to reach something in there life weather its through blogging, fashion or fitness?

 

Id say to be very dedicated in what they are trying to achieve.

To be very patient also because to reach something good in life it usually will take alot of time, motivation, discipline and dedication.

Everything is possible if you really believe in yourself.

SOLO CHE MODELS || MY MAKE UP WORK ON MODELS AMBER & ABII.

My work from the photo-shoot we did at Solo Che Models recently.

The location we chose was actually at our models home, this was a perfect, spacious location with great views and backgrounds, the dress we where provided was glam so we wanted to do 1 evening look and one editorial look on the girls to make them look completely different!

The shoot itself lasted longer than expected but we got great shots, some of which where on a tree!!

keep an eye out on SOLO CHE MODELS Facebook for the professional photographs!

AMBER'S LOOK: (MODEL WITH BLACK HAIR)
AN EVENING MAKE UP THAT CONSISTS OF BROWN TONES TO WARM UP HER EYE COLOUR AND BRING OUT HER EYES, HER NATURALLY LONG LASHES ARE COATED WITH 3 COATS OF MASCARA TO GET THE FULL LENGHT AND VOLUME.

ON HER SKIN I PRIMED AND ADDED ESTEE LAUDER'S DOUBLE WEAR FOR A FULL COVERAGE AND PERFECT LOOKING SKIN!

THE LIPS ARE LINED WITH A BROWN LINER AND FILLED IN WITH A NUDEY/CLEAR GLOSS - FURTHER, I ADDED AN EXTRAAAA GLOSSYYY GLOSS FOR THAT BRIGHT SPARKLE.

AMBERS HAIR IS A CLASSIC PINNED UP HAIR STYLE THAT IS PLAITED FROM BOTH SIDES AND PINNED IN PLACE, THE FRONT PART DROPS ELEGANTLY TOWARDS HER FACE AND ADDS SOFTNESS TO HER LOOK.

ABII'S LOOK IS AN EDITORIAL MAKE UP, SO NOT SOMETHING YOU WOULD NECESSERILY WEAR OUT BUT LOOKED GREAT ON PHOTOGRAPHS!

AMBERS LOOK:
I applied a variety of warm tones into her crease to deepen the eye and bring out the blue as much as possible, I followed this with adding a gold tone to the lid, and a white in the inner corner = these techniques enlarger's the eye and help the colour of her eyes stand out.
The lip colour I chose was a bright red with almost an orange tone to contrast with her flawless light skin & black hair.

 

 

 

ABI'S LOOK:
A subtle but smokey eyelid that has hints of blue popping when photographed from certain edges, mega long lashes and a neon blue lower waterline.
I complimented this look by adding a very washed out nude lip as I wanted all the attention on the eyes!


 

 

Below are pictures of both Abi's look & Paige's look!
for information on Paige's look, please keep scrolling :)
 

 

 

 

PAIGE'S LOOK:

For Paige I wanted to do a smokey eye to compliment her dark features and tanned skin.

She has quite small eyes so putting on a lot of black or dark tones would make her eyes appear even smaller so instead I did a smokey-with-a-twist and added all the dark shades in the outter corner instead of putting them close to her lashline.
This elongated her eye and gave her the sexy - neutral - cat eye look!
I then highlighted and contoured her skin for that extra little bit of dimension.

Her lips where lined with a pinky/nude lipliner and filled in with a nude lip-gloss for that ombre look.

Thanks for reading!!

MODEL

Jessica Rose Kennedy

 

I am working as a Manager and Make up Artist for SOLO CHE MODELS,

we are in the process of selecting models for our lifestyle aspect of the business which is where we have a group of boys and girls that represent our company and do constant photo-shoots with us.

When companies such as Adidas who have contacted us twice to use our photographs get in touch we send them forward our models and their pictures

When we have certain photo-shoot ideas, locations, collaborations and features, our lifestyle models will be the first to hear about it and have a fast pass to take part in it - all costs covered too!

Its an amazing opportunity and if you want to get involved email SOLO CHE at

                      info@solochemodels.com

Below are a few pictures of some Make up looks I tried on Jessica.

I opted for a Nude eye with strong black eyeliner, flawless skin and nude lips

&

Another look was a defined brow, bright grape lip, sculpted bronzed cheeks with a very highlighted cheek-bone.

 

- Love, Diana xx
