Just pausing to reflect on Stevie Nicks for a moment.

Absolutely stunning.

Smart move by SABA

Australian label SABA commissioned Scott Schuman (AKA The Satorialist) to shoot their new SABA DENIM campaign during his recent visit to Australia. The photos were shot on the streets of Melbourne using Shuman's signature street style photography.











I have never really been too interested in SABA (I find their pieces to be well tailored but a bit too plain for my liking) however I appreciate this new campaign and I really like that the styling has included the integration of vintage pieces which has ironically updated their look. Afterall, dressing from head to toe in one label is the best way to be a uniformed catalogue kid. My favourite is 'Adrian' with the addition of his bright red socks and cheeky hat.


The photos can be viewed exclusively on the SABA website http://denimblog.saba.com.au

Lara, Fiction Noire

I've been meaning to post this one for a while but was going to save it so that this didn't become some sort of Lara fansite. To hell with it - it will sooner be a nothing site if I don't post things as they inspire me.

Remember this breathtaking (horridly amazingly breathtaking) editorial photographed by Steven Klein, which featured in the February 2009 Vogue Paris?

Here is the short film by Steven Klein that shows the story behind the captured movements:



There was something about this shoot that had initially struck a chord in me. It was one of the first photo-shoots of its kind that I had seen successfully portray an evil storyboard with an undeniable breath of sex and passion. Watching these stills come to life through film was an equally challenging and incredible experience. Enjoy.

I think every girl dreams of a moment like this...

Girl can wear her Rodarte

I always thought Joanna Newsom dressed well, but these pictures of her wearing the soft blue Rodarte Dress from the Fall 2008 collection just blew everything out of the water.

She has the petite, mystical look that Rodarte was made for. Dare I say she wears the dress better than the model herself?  She certainly looks like she's having more fun...

Soundtrack to Fashion

Some people like fashion because of the pretty clothes.

Some people like fashion and also are interested in the the entire technical production of a runway show.

If I could produce the soundtrack to any fashion show it would be Alexander Mcqueen (because it could be outrageous), or Dior Homme (mainly because it's basically my music taste expressed through fabric).
