Kidulthood



Photography: Scott Schuman
Model: Claudia

I love these images by Scott Schuman, from a shoot he did for Style Piccoli with his children and their friends as models. You can view the rest of the shoot, here. My favourite images are the above two, but I particularly like the first one; it's androgynous, striking and too perfect for a child. 

Patti Boyd & George Harrison



I love the above images; there is something about that era. Apparently, many people claim she is the greatest musical muse of the 'rock generation', for instance, many of Eric Clapton's greatest love songs were written about Ms. Boyd, and how he couldn't have her because she was married to his best friend, George Harrison. The song below is a reinterpretation by Clapton:

Have you ever loved a woman so much you tremble in pain?
Have you ever loved a woman so much you tremble in pain?
And all the time you know she bears another man's name.

Have you ever loved a woman so much it's a shame and a sin?
Have you ever loved a woman so much it's a shame and a sin?
And all the time you know she belongs to your very best friend.

Have you ever loved a woman and you know you can't leave her alone?
Have you ever loved a woman and you know you can't leave her alone?
Something deep inside of you won't let you wreck your very best friend's home.

A Danity Doll


Alexa Chung for Maria Claire, not as great as Ashley Olsen but still insipirational in her own style. I love the casualness and her jewellery; I really want to get a Chanel style jacket.

John Hughes, Jr.

 
 

Film director John Hughes died two days ago, pictured in the second image. Hughes was the catalyst for some of the best teen films, in my opinion, such as The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Not forgetting one of the best Christmas films, Home Alone, which helped set off the career of Macaulay Culkin. A quote that sums his career up; he "made a better connection with young people than anyone in Hollywood had ever made before or since." - Ben Stein.

Age.



How amazing is this sketch by silk.glitter.smoke blogger??!! I was showing my sister the images, who use to draw regularly like that, and I decided to post them for you all. The first image is a photography piece by Hedi Slimane from the s/s 09 issue of Vogue Homme International, you can view more of that editorial on her blog, here.

You haven't met Moohoop?









Lj user Moohoop is one of the coolest people to hit Livejournal. I love people who dress so unique and original, partly because I can't really go that far, but they have so much confidence to pull it off. Oh, I have the brown version of her boots in the third image! That makes me partly cool, right? Hahaha. I love her hair cut, nearly all her looks but above all, all the confidence that oozes from her images. Blue lipstick???!

Body Chains.

 

Me (A) and my sister (B):
A: "I really want to get a body chain like Erin Wasson's body chain!"
B: "Why, what's so good about them?"
A: "They are just so cool, I made a not-so-good copy with my jewellery and it felt amazing!"
B: "Okay, let me see how they look."
I proceed to show her the last image in my post designed by Biss Lau.
B: "Wow, they're so cool. How much do they cost?"
