Bellerose had me as soon as I laid eyes on the owls. Plenty of brands have gorgeous models, great clothes, and clever styling in their lookbooks. But I can’t think of any others with owls and birds of prey in their photos. It helps, of course, that the clothes have such a perfect rich autumn color palette. To complement the owls better, obviously. But seriously, these outfits are so stylish and cozy-looking that they’d stand out even without the living props. I especially love the unexpected pops of bright yellow, blue, and red paired with the darker shades of rust, navy, and evergreen.

I guess they know they have a good thing going with the birds. If you go to their website, you get a video of a guy holding a bird and moving it around in front of a camera. Maybe he’s desensitizing it to the flash, or just doing lighting/camera tests?
