Black Velvet

Well look at me and all my posts consisting of my own crappy photographs! I'm on a roll! I really wish my camera was better because it hasn't done justice to how beautiful my most recent vintage find is; a vintage Jaeger matte black velvet cropped blazer with matching waistcoat! It's in incredible condition, and from the snug fit and style, and the yellowed old label, I'm pretty sure its from about the 1960's/70's. The blazer is collarless, it has rounded and slightly flared sleeves, and a fine line of stitching around the hems (which you can just make out in the pics), and the waistcoat is the same black velvet with a silky black satin back. I can imagine Kate Moss wearing this (she loves a good blazer/waistcoat combo) and I'm going to style it as she would with a white shirt, skinny jeans and a good pair of plain black flats.

Kate by Tezza

This woman is gorgeous, full stop. That 3rd picture? Forgetaboutit. When in front of a camera, some people don't photograph as good as they look in real life (aka ME) and some people seem to illuminate the whole picture and become more beautiful (aka KATE). Her hair is amazing in these pics non!? And great taste in books there Kate, I'm just finishing that one off!

Kate Moss for Longchamp

Kate Moss's collaboration with Longchamp is still going strong and this video, for the S/S '11 collection presumably, titled 'Faraway' and shot in a beautiful vintage style, shows Kate on holiday relaxing and acting every inch the bohemian rock n' roll muse. The film is totally indoctrinating with its vivid summery colours, hippie music and glamourous locations. So much so that it has sparked an intense desire in me to get outside and dance around like a crazy woman lost in the moment! Let's get out there and enjoy the sun while it lasts!
