Screen snapped these from UK Harpers Bazaar today, March 2014 edition, I want. I want. I want. Sadly, life’s realities trump desire and aspiration. Life sucks. [That’s for non-standing, poor circulation, neurologically numb wheelchair type feet. Some wheelies may be luckier … Though some walking people might need a wheelchair if they try to, you […]
MoreLoved this quirky take on Important Pink Moments in Comme des Garcons History by AnOther Magazine last week. It fits right in with my ethos of not being massively interested in fashion but totally loving a individual perspective on style. CdG is all about the ‘black’ aesthetic, right? Hell, no.

MoreYou’ve seen the show, the photographs … Now, click across to The Cut to see Drawings In The Moment: Runway Portraits From New York Fashion Week by Illustrator Bil Donovan. Gorgeous.

And, as always, the collection is beautiful. The images speak for themselves. Truly, fashion as art. Go across to Fashionising.com to see more of the Spring/Summer 2014, and […]
MoreWith New York Fashion Week winding up, it has to be time to look at my favourite collection: The Row A/W 2014 (via Fashionising.com) Yes, there’s lots of other collections that have been pretty and colourful and zany … yada, yada … but, me? Seems I love me some Olsen Twins – who’d have thought […]

However, needing a few minutes escape, I did take some time to look up the Australian artist, Del Kathryn Barton whose work I saw recently in a magazine. On first viewing, I thought she might be an outsider artist – the […]
MoreI’m so having a music and art week and the Soko: Love Letter video – animating the art of Niki de Saint Phalle to music and lyrics of Soko on the Nowness website – fits my mood perfectly. Many years ago, on a bright summer day in Paris, I stumbled across an exhibition of Niki […]
