Finally I’ve been able to get around to doing ULTRAVIOLENCE! This one is of my 2014 Lana Del Rey black t-shirt that has the ULTRAVIOLENCE album cover on the front with tour dates on the back. I bought this one online a few years ago after I lost my first ULTRAVIOLENCE shirt in the back of my friend’s car one time & never got it back, but I was so glad I was able to replace this shirt in like 2019! I’m glad I was finally able to do another merchandise shirt photoshoot, I’ve been able to do a few of them this year but I have been wanting to do more of them. My goal is to shoot as much of my merch closet as I can, & get it all posted! I love shooting different merchandise & stuff, it’s always awesome to me to do different outfits & everything. I always love my #MerchStyle concept with all the different outfits I can do for my merch shirts & all, plus this one was a good one to do. You can check out this ULTRAVIOLENCE t-shirt photoshoot blog post on my other blog, Celebrity Merch Base, as well. This photoshoot turned out pretty good overall too & I definitely like this one. Ultraviolence was one of my favorite albums ever when it came out in 2014, so I was glad I could finally do the photoshoot for it. I have always loved Lana since I first discovered her, she was one of my favorite artists ever for a while! I have like a few different Lana shirts, too, which is pretty perfect for me & they’re all three different colors. I am happy I finally decided to do this one now though, since this one was one of my favorite merchandise shirts I had a few years ago! I really want to catch-up with everything I have also, I’ve been doing so well with the last couple of months so let’s see how this one goes & then we’ll see what I end up doing next! I have a couple ideas for different outfits after this, but I’ve been trying to do this post for a couple weeks & I want to finally get into it. I’m pretty glad about this one, I think I had the right idea for this shirt and it came together pretty well for sure. This summer’s been going good & so have my blog posts this year, so let’s get into this Lana-inspired photoshoot! I love the purple with it.

ULTRAVIOLENCE Lana Del Rey black t-shirt Photoshoot & Blog Post 2023

I’m so glad I was finally able to do this photoshoot, I had been trying for like a week or two to get this photoshoot done, like I mentioned, but I wasn’t sure when I could do it quite yet! But I’m glad I was finally able to do it this time. I’m going to try to do merch a little more often this year also, but I’m so glad I finally picked to shoot this Lana shirt. This is sometimes one of my favorite merch shirts, or at least it has been on & off sometimes. I love that it’s black & white too, and I think the purple lipstick with the purple highlight & blush looked really good with it as well. I have so much merchandise left to shoot basically, also, but this one was definitely next in line. But I’m just going to try to shoot some of my merch more regularly to catch up with what I have now, and get more of it done. I can’t believe how much of it I ended up with from collecting it for so long, and I really want to catalog more of it! I have a few more shirts in mind I was going to do soon but it was important that I finally do this Lana one since it’s so cool to me. I was glad it was another black one as well, since I have so many of those. I always love Lana a lot of course too, so this one was a priority. I also even had this one written on my whiteboard, but I still have a few different merch things left on there. I of course have a lot of merch left too, but only a few things I wrote on there for now. We’ll see what all I end up doing next though, with that in mind! I also was finally able to get these Dolls Kill fishnets from 2019 into a photoshoot, I hadn’t gotten these into one yet & it’s been so long! These were also on my whiteboard, on my list of priority items, since I couldn’t believe I still hadn’t done these yet. I’m glad I finally was able to, these ended up working out really well with the outfit. I’m still going through everything I have & shooting as much of it as I can though, so that’s cool. I have like three different sections on my whiteboard, & all of that is more of a priority sometimes of what I have left to shoot, but I’ll get to that stuff as I go. It’ll be awesome to do more & catch up, though. This shoot is a pretty good one also, let’s get into it!

Lana Del Rey is amazing, I first basically discovered her in like January of 2013 or something from my friend. After that, she became one of my favorite artists, and I downloaded all of her music and stuff! Once Ultraviolence finally came out in mid-2014 it was one of my favorite albums of all time & I was super into it, I loved it. I was already like totally into Lana and it was perfect for me. I then saw her in like 2015 on tour, which was super cool too, & ended up posting about that on here a year or two later called Honeymoon. A few days later, I ended up posting this cool photoshoot of this big fur coat of mine where I had on my other Ultraviolence shirt, the original one I had before I lost it, underneath the coat when I did the photoshoot Bound To You. There’s a few pictures in there that you can kind of see that Ultraviolence shirt on underneath it, which was cool! That one was this cool two-piece demo photoshoot for that coat, which was decent! I can’t believe it took me until years later to finally shoot this Lana shirt, but that’s okay, I’m glad I got to do it now. Then finally, in 2022, I ended up doing this photoshoot for my basically third Lana shirt, that I called Not All Those Who Wander which was from 2021 that I got that year for her Chemtrails album. That one was a pretty good one, as well, I loved it. That was basically my first actual photoshoot that I did with one of my Lana shirts, finally. Other than that, I needed to do a main post with my Ultraviolence shirt, so I finally did this one, and now I have like one more Lana shirt I think left to do. I originally included like one picture of the last shirt in that first post that I mentioned though! That’ll be my last of the three that I needed to do. I love that I have all three of these, I think it’s perfect. Lastly, my last Lana post I had up on here was called Yayo, and it includes my gold heart rosary stash necklace that she sold with her 2015 tour, which I got online later. That one I did a few months back & it turned out super cool with my friend. In case I post about Lana any time after this, you can check out my Lana Del Rey category on my blog too! Finally though, make sure you check out my secondary blog for my merchandise collection called Celebrity Merch Base, on there you can also search for Lana Del Rey for some of the same shoots & a couple other items, also. I love posting on there too. I loved this photoshoot, let’s get more into it. I have just 2 collages left now!

This outfit was a good idea. These days I’ve been doing a few different photoshoots that were similar to this sometimes, but also doing like kind of a theme with my last page of blog photoshoots as well. Basically, right now on my front page there’s a whole page of blog posts that all have a stylization to their name, which I like doing sometimes. I used to do that once in a while, when I was creating a series of blog posts, like making all of the names capital or something, in a row. This time, I started with just adding stylization to the names of those blog posts, which is still kind of part of the same series, but then after three of them I started capitalizing all of the names of my posts & included the stylization with them as well! So that’s been like 7 different blog posts now and they’re all super cool in that series, so like 7 & 10 total kind of in the same series, but I might keep going with it after this. I think it definitely looks cool and I like that it all has a kind of theme like that, that’s pretty awesome. Also, I’ve been of course wearing all gold jewelry since like March and that’s always super cool, I’m going to keep doing that as well. I love how that works and it’s been awesome for me. I love also love that this outfit was just a t-shirt & fishnets, too! In that last page of blog posts I’ve been working on, I’ve been wearing some shirts & dresses here & there that were similar to that for a while, because I love that they all kind of go together and relate to each other! Basically, since around the time I’ve been capitalizing my blog posts names, I’ve had something that has been like in common with each of those outfits and they all turned out pretty cool. But I like the fact that I wasn’t really wearing any shorts with this outfit or whatever either, since the shirt was long enough. I thought that that looked better to me than with shorts on. But I think this is a pretty cool outfit and I love how it turned out, it looked pretty good to me & everything! Plus I finally wore these gold boots again, it has been a while!

My nails were also pretty cool for this photoshoot. In 2019, I found a Deborah Lippmann set of 6 mini nail polishes online from Sephora that I ended up getting, which were inspired by Lana pretty much, and the set was called Shades of Cool like Lana’s song. A bunch of the names of the polishes reference Lana as well, & this one, the purple one, is called Young, Wild & Free & references a lyric from Lana’s other song Cruel World, ‘Because you’re young, you’re wild, you’re free. You’re dancing circles around me, you’re fucking crazy’! Both of those two songs, & also the song Ultraviolence of course, are all three on Lana’s 2014 Ultraviolence album. That is such a good album, I love that one so much. The other nail polishes I used with the purple one were also, as I mentioned in my outfit details, from the Shades of Cool set called Ghost, which is a white shimmery sparkly color & also Cruel Summer which is a white color I used for the roses I stamped over my nails. I’m not sure about the other one, but the Cruel Summer one is definitely also referencing Cruel World, plus also Lana mentions the summer sometimes too, so that’s definitely a Lana one as well. That’s it for my nails, but anyway I’m so glad I finally got to do this photoshoot, it was awesome & I love doing ones like this. I especially liked the last three collages, too, I think they turned out awesome. The third-to-last picture is also a close-up of my sparkly cross stud earring, as well, I mis-matched my two sets of stud earrings from AMYO & the cross one looked good in that picture! Those are definitely cute studs and they worked out really well with this look for sure. I think that’s pretty much it though for this blog post, finally. I’m so glad I got to finally end up doing this photoshoot too! I’m excited to see what I’ll do next time, I know I have other good shoot ideas also. Thanks so much for checking out this blog post & I’ll see you all later with something else!
