Lets Go Go.

If you often read this blog then you know I have a major thing for the 60's, the music, the style, I adore that sixties vibe. These pics were taken yesterday for a potential project in the pipeline, Styled by Alanna, Laura and I and Photographed by Alanna, although though these were just behind the scenes shots. I think you will agree that these are a great homage to some stylistic qualities of the period. I just love them, particularly the rug!!!

If your not at the Great Escape tonight (the Brighton music festival) but are instead staying in, as I am with a cold! Then check out this modern art documentary for some reminders of the key modern artists and also some great 60's footage. Enjoy.

For some reason the last through days I have rocked dangerously between a prim 1940's look, inspired by Miss Marple and her glamorous ladies which I watched on Saturday (lol) and a 1960's air hostess kind of vibe. All looks have included hats. 


Anyway as I while away my week in a flurry of slightly odd vintage outfits, here is a documentary about one of the most influential fashion photographers of the last century, his career spanning over fifty years. As well as some very insightful interviews, this programme has A LOT of juicy vintage pictures from 30's fashion upwards. Amazing and a must see.
