Angela Simmons hit the sands of Malibu over the weekend where she was snapped by photographer C. Michael Williams in a moody shoot styled by Rebecca Jefferson.

Global Grind said she’s “revisiting childhood memories including the playground and the beach,” though it’s clear Daddy’s Girl is aiming for a more mature look as she posed in her best pouty faces, a skin-bearing backless dress and feathers positioned to look like she wasn’t wearing anything at all.  

We’re not entirely sure what she’s selling (ironically the pastry designer isn’t wearing shoes in any of the pictures), but someone involved in this project sure does have an affinity for feather boas—maybe a way to add some fun to all the sullen looks that Angela’s giving? While the costume accessory makes some of the frames feel less high fashion, drop earrings, a collar necklace and statement-making cuffs bring an element of freshness. Makeup artist Nikki Zalanka added glam with strong eye makeup and red lips while hairstylist Maisha Oliver provided one of the few elements of the shoot we could actually see ourselves wearing by the ocean: perfectly tousled beach hair.
