there's a reason we all love the sartorialist.


here's a few of mine.
nothing new; i was looking through his archives for wardrobe references for a work project yesterday. his photos and vintage photo competitions are always so inspiring.

although furs are not my thing (especially the ones that still have their faces), i do quite like the old fashioned grace of a vintage one when i see it worn well (on other people).

i actually got a cloche the other day from this new shop in cresta whose name i just cant remember right now. it made me quite happy... i've been wearing it around the house constantly, but it still has to make its public debut. i could really start a hat collection right about now.

lets go to brighton beach with our victorian boots.
jeffrey campbell brought out a victorian inspired pair on modcloth recently by the way. i cant decide whethter they are cute or not quite. still kind of want them though.

this outfit feels like the elements of it clash in the best way possible.
