It's A Guy Thing

I've probably been overdosing you all with classic, masculine inspired things - I guess I have it on the brain (and it's also related to my concept for uni at the moment - therefore I feel less guilty with distracting myself blogging).

But how can an editorial like this not be helpfull and inspiring in some way - just look at the amazing cuts of the coats and pants; the earthy, tweedy colours; the movement in what are usually rigid, serious pieces; the stunning lighting and setting. Not to mention the stunning Bette Franke - the girl is growing on my for sure.

Alexa has been kicking sartorial ass lately. Perfect mix of tomboy/little girl/grandma - one has to wonder what the stateside audience of her MTV show think of it?

Special mention for these babies... I had a heart attack when I saw them - they are PERFECT. By Acne, but aren't on their site yet. My god I love these.

"Through the Looking Glass"

Oh man these are lovely. There's something both refreshing and nostalgic about the combination of illustration and photography. These really remind me of teenage drawings on magazines - make me want to attack some of my (less precious) mags with my pens.

Guys And Dolls

Love these shots of Alexa from UK Vogue's July issue - especially the cutely badass one on the left. Gorgeous outfits and colouring too. Will definitely purchasing this issue when it hits our shores! And if you haven't already, go read her columns for The Independent - v funny and very much Alexa's classic humor.
