A few months ago, Quiksilver women’s style ambassador Beth Jones embarked on a journey of discovery… Together with her good friend and amazing photographer Laurel Dailey, she travelled through out Europe and met those women that inspire us with their iconic style or their creative minds… Through out the journey she met women like Louise Ebel (AKA Miss Pandora), Alma Luna, Cookies, Margaux Lonneberg, Julie Boulanger, Charlotte O’Connor and many more… It was an amazing trip where we all learned a lot, so we though we should share it with you all with a little series of webisodes…
.
Here’s Webisode 1, I hope you enjoy it!

Being the stylist, hairdresser and make up artist for her own photo shoots, her universe is made up of image, shade and light. Her photos illustrate daily life whilst transporting us into the fairy tale world of magical dreams.
.
In collaboration with Quiksilver Women, Bara is touring her photo exhibition in Quiksilver Women stores across Europe between June and December 2010. Following the success of her exhibition during the Tony Hawk Show in Paris, Bara this year uses her experience to capture the essence and personalities of other Quiksilver Women Ambassadors.
.
For this shoot in Prague, she was accompanied by Ela, Julie Boulanger, Leddra Chapman and Mahara McKay. The photographs reveal the Fall/Winter 2010 collection in an urban universe, yet with even more rock’n’roll. Thanks to her imagery, she helps us discover the artistic and creative portraits reflecting the universe of these women.
