Alexa Chung style

Because which young blogger hasn't admired Alexa at some point?

Still thought her book was atrocious. All these people praising it, it was quite void of any real reflection? Fashion has so much potential to do so much more, but it likes its place in the ivory tower, looking down at the unstyled masses

Anais Nin, I have always loved the 'masculine' 'look' on women, that was a 'trend' I enjoyed, after my relief that fluorescent trend died!

Kiki de Montparnasse

Alice Prin, better known as Kiki de Montparnasse, 1901-1953, another muse to the French set that bloggy girls will be daydreaming about for decades to come, a face and style captured during a moment in time

The famous Man Ray portrait

Imagine, having been young in the 1920's! We romanticise it now, but with a lot in modern life lacking mystery, how nice to see an it girl who'll always have a certain mystique, never to be fully revealed or understood

Sofia Coppola Vogue

WHAT a cover the Vogue Italia from 1992 is, it doesn't look dated, and she looks like she's been painted by one of the Renaissance artists

Vogue Paris spread, fun way to cram in lots of detail, I love her aesthetic, she knows what she likes, and it's reflected in her films and what she wears, fashion is fleeting, style is eternal

Sixties style!! Oh Jane, what a beauty

The high waists, boots, shidt dresses, floppy hair with big fringes, and of course, the basket! A look many have tried to replicate and failed (myself included)

Above pic is a favourite

Suspenders need to be worn by more people! Sussy-penders as I like to call them :)

What a gown, what a couple!

But then I found this: and I want to poke my eyeballs out, was this an 80's phase? 

Dear god please someone say it's so, it can be excused that way as the 80's couldn't have known the pain it would inflict on fashion everywhere.
