best video of all time.


CRYIN' by Aerosmith circa' 93 starring a very young Alicia Silverstone & Stephen Dorf pre CLUELESS. 

I was obsessed with this video as a 10 year old. It was (and admittedly still is) the coolest video of the coolest girl ever. I still think about how I'd chase after anyone who tried to steal my bag and kick them to the ground. YEAH. 

Also it's the best song. Please watch it. Styling wise it's great, pure bad fitting understated early nineties cool. 

badass.

I discovered the amazing Hyena photography of Peter Hugo in Tom's Beard's room whilst at a party at his. Slightly fucked, the imagery had me in AWE. I'd never seen anything like it. That hyena's were kept at BAD ASS pets, loved by these incredible hawks of men that stalked around with their beasts in beaten vests and tasseled skirts. 

The photography was also a HUGE styling inspiration. These are some of the most stylish men I've ever seen in my life. They are better and badder than anything in Blade Runner or Mad Max. 

And PIETER HUGO is an absolutely incredible photographer. I just bought his book Permanent Error. I's obsessed. I want to make it my 5 year goal to have an original print framed and huge on my wall (Alice Dellal does, I was told...) 

In the new edition of LOVE, Anders Soelvsten Thomsen does an INCREDIBLE street cast story with Alice Hawkins show and cast in Nairobi. It was so good it brought tears to my eyes. The best editorial shoot I have seen in so long. Hugely original. I will photograoh my issue and post as I cant find them online...

Quentin & Vicky.


QUENTIN JONES, (who I really can't gush about anymore) made this film for the Victoria by Victoira Beckham collection. It's truely a brilliant fashion film, engaging and informative in that it really shows off alot of the collection. 

With the lovely AGATA BECLAN styling, ROB STOREY on set design and PETER DUFFY and JOHNNY LANGER of MAN LIKE ME contributing their music to the mix - this is the PUURRRRRRfect fashion film. 

Get it. PUURRRRRfect. Yeah. thats right.

titastic.


The incredibly HOT and incredibly TALENTED Miss. Phoebe Collings-James makes this amazing TIT TAPE with Slutever's Karley. It's hilarious, and also an opportunity to see some great tits.

Phoebe is the amazingly nice girl, but also a geniuine artist. She gave me one of her drawings, which hangs proudly on my wall:

Guess Who.

LOVIN' these fasshhuuun Simpson characters created by (I'm guessing) Alexsandro Palombo. Hilary Alexander is blantantly the best.

LOLZ.

Found this shoot in an old copy of The Face from 96. LOVE the cut and paste post job. The faces are hilarious. Kinda obsessed.

Also love the gritty photography and understated styling. So mid 90's wrong.

cool kids.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Philip Lim's 3.1 AW12 menswear collection. It feels very London, Very relevant, very Raf Simons 2001 infact!! 

- Great casting (ummm how young do those boys look?!) 
- Great styling, those long extended big black belts look like something else big and black. LOVE a phallic reference. 
- Great fabrications and texture. 

why hello there.


QUENTIN JONES; illustrator / creator EXTRONDINARE looking fly AS in this film for RAG & BONE, for anOther Magazine. She does make me giggle all wet in the shower with her clothes on though.

Not only is she clever and fit, she also makes the BEST over roasted cod you have ever had.

buildings.

Am obsessed with the architectural photography of Josef Schulz. He photograph's industrial architecture, and then strips it of it's defining features; such a doors and windows. He then digitally manipulates the images and introduces the forms to to new environments. 

I love how it show's the beauty of a building in it's simplest form. Le Corbusier would appreciate it. 
On that note - my favourite quote from Corbusier: "Take care of the luxuries and the necessities will take care of themselves." How very fitting - with no money for this week's groceries, today when in town I decided HAD to buy a Diptyque candle, flowers and a £15 bottle of Chablis to sit and enjoy working at my laptop this evening. 

WTF?!
