SHEI !!!!!

Congratulations Shei you are the Star Model of the week. You will receive a +3 Point bonus to your overall total score for this week.

(The polling results for the STAR MODEL of the week were so close that 1st and 2nd place were separated by just 1 vote.)

With that let’s start this week’s panel. This week you beauties had to focus on one of the three accessory groups (bags, shoes or scarves/sunglasses) and sell that accessory while still producing a high fashion shot. 

Here is this weeks portfolio: http://staracademytg.wix.com/staracademy#!week-5/bpvyu

Chris: Good job this week! I really love your relaxed face, the color of the sunglasses, and the black and grey shading is just icing on the cake!

Dara: Hali I love this shot hun! You just keep on producing solid shots week after week. Your selling the sunglasses perfectly and I love how you positioned your body to highlight your body shape and how you positioned your head to showcase your strong facial features. Overall I’m very impressed.

Carly: I LOVE this! You not only look amazing with a killer body, but the sunglasses truly are the selling point of this shot.

Chris: Your face is like yeah I'm better than you and I love it! I love how the dude is admiring your shoes, and I love the color of the shoes! You couldn't have done any better!

Dara: Love this shot. It’s seductive, strong and alluring. Your selling the shoes perfectly hun that I just want to buy them<333 I love the way you have positioned your body as your creating angles to add dimension to the shot.

Carly: Yes, mama, you better work that sofa while showing off those gorgeous heels! I love the fun colors as they work really well with the black and white.

Chris: I don't like how the bag is covering the bottom part of your face, and its kind of weird how you're just lying there on the bed. I don't see any expression in your face, but I do like the color of the bag!

Dara: I like this shot Gemma but I know you can do much better. I love your eyes in this shot they truly are captivating but I wish you would’ve used your body more to create a more fashion forward shot. You are selling the bag well but this shot doesn’t wow me.

Carly: You have been a star to me all season, but I must admit this shot is a bit of a let down. I think you could have been selling the bag in a more interesting way.

Star Lounge Score: 5.5
The Star Lounge was a bit underwhelmed by your photo. They thought you looked pretty but your shot was too safe.

Natalie your up next sweetie. Natalie you have have had your ups and downs in the competition week by week. Your GIF this week also received mixed reviews. Let’s see what the judges and the Star Lounge think of your photo.

Chris: It's a really small photo, and it's really hard to see your face. I don't really like the pose of your body, but I like the pointing of the feet and toes and the color of your shoes. Purple is my favorite colour!

Dara: I like this photo Natalie. I’m impressed by the fact you kept your face in control even with such a dynamic pose. I love the way your selling those running shoes. Overall it’s a dynamic and effective shot. Although I do wish your picture was bigger and higher quality.

Carly: I think this is good, but the issue is it’s too small. The purple shoes don’t really stand out from the black and white. 

Star Lounge Score: 4.5
The Star Lounge was underwhelmed by your photo this week. They were disappointed in the low quality of your picture and thought you could’ve highlighted the shoes better.

Star Lounge gave low score this week. But I admit that Hali's photo is rocking this week. She did great.
