Streetstyle Snaps



Fantastic drapey yet feminine look



After seeing this pic and Ashley Olsen at the Costume Institute Gala, I really want a peasant blouse with over the shoulder sleeves! So sexy!



Despite it being too warm to wear anything like this, I love the ruffled jacket as the final finishing layer

 

These shoes make the outfit, it goes to show how the right accessories can change everything!

 

The perfect denim-on-denim look

 

A shot of rasberry red goes a long way!



I'd love to know where she got this unusual dress from? Self made or Westwood methinks?

 

Currently obsessed with bottle green velvet so this is a win in my books!

 

I love the sassiness of this outfit; cheeky yet subtle

Not So Black & White

Initially it was this beautiful picture of a raffish yet feminine woman dressed in a denim shirt with kohl-lined eyes and scruffy hair that caught my eye, but after reading about the photographer himself, I so wish I lived in LA so I could see what is bound to be an amazing and important exhibition. Visit the Michael Kohn gallery website here to read about the amazing photographer Charles Brittin, who photographed California's Beat community in the 1950's and later went on to document the civil rights movement in the 1960's, eventually joining the cause and assisting with the registration of black voters in the Deep South.

I do not claim to have an indepth or studied knowledge of this amazing photographer but I wanted to post these images because his work spoke to me firstly as being beautiful, but more importantly, you can feel the empowerment and sense of importance in his photographs. Enjoy!

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!

Paris in Spring Time

I'M GOING TO PARIS THIS APRIL!!!

To celebrate this amazingness I'm posting some pictures from my last trip to Paris during A/W 2010 Fashion Week. I went with friends and we had so much fun stalking editors in the Jardin de Tuileries, hunting down vintage shops, eating over priced but delicious food and drink, and not sleeping enough because we were too excited to want to miss anything that happened in the city! Bring it on!

All pictures my own
