My Own Private Idaho

Watched Gus Van Sant's My Own Private Idaho today - wow. River Pheonix's intensity was mind blowing. And god the story (although not plot driven) was tragic. The Shakespearean element was also really interesting. I love the stark look of the white jeans and black tank he wears throughout - although how they manage to stay clean through all his hustling, traveling and drug taking I don't know.

I always find myself going back to the colour combination of white, cream, denim blue and soft brown - especially when I can't think what to wear. Its just casual enough but chic at the same time, and soft but not do girly. And you can wear a bunch of different shades but never clash. 100% failsafe. Actually I've pretty much got stuff like this to put on after the gym this mornin (Karen Walker acid wash skinnys, cream cashmere tshirt, tan leather jacket). Must have had this in the back of my mind last night when packing!

Current/Love

Im obsessed with Current/Elliot at the best of times, and I just checked out their Resort 09 lookbook - its AMAZING. It has a gorgeous, romantic, scruffy nostalgia and a strong americana feel. I love love that its shot at a big peeling white weatherboard house. Perfection.

I especially love the first pieces in the first two shots...

 

Ps: Guess what....
... They do menswear now too!!!
