Blogger crush

I'll confess Laurel, I've never read your Teen Vogue beauty tips blog, but you are amazingly cute.

Laurel let's go out? You can tell me all about make up, hair product, and skin beautifications... and I promise I'll start reading your beauty tips blog.

Polka dots, pumps, and purses

Scott Schuman always finds exceptional.

These ladies look amazing right?

I love the woman in the leopard pumps and the polka dots. And what a cool way to contrast her look, with that very masculine timepiece.

The other ladies hand bag is pretty neato too. Reminds me of "pieces of flair" from Office Space.

Who knew that you could make "pieces of flair" look cool?

Vibrant and vibing

Check out this girl. Beautiful right? Love her modern-classy look, and where the hell did Scott Schuman find a perfectly matching garage door? Also, it appears that the fro-pomp is really big right now.

Sort of reminds me of Janelle Monáe... and speaking of which, damn that girl can dance!

A reminder

It's no secret that I love Scott Schuman's the Sartorialist website.

I think the man has my dream job. Although I'd probably write a little more than he does, but still...

Scott's blog always captures some amazingly stylish people, and I'd like to think I'm capable of doing the same--but with a way shittier camera.

When I was at Coachella--a little drunk--I saw this amazingly beautiful girl standing amongst the crowd. She was wearing a yellow terricloth jumper, and my goodnessss that figure. During the festival, I had been asking strangers for their pics just because I found them to be stylish, and also to add flavor to my own personal photo album. This girl though, she was so exquisitely beautiful; I knew my Coachella photo album would not be complete without adding her image, her aura--her swagger. I snapped one as I walked up to her, and then tapped her on the shoulder.

"Hey can I take your picture?"

"Excuse me?" She responded in what was a damn cute, but somewhat regal, English accent.

"No, I just think you're really cute and stylish and I want to take your picture. It's nothing sketchy." Would I have said that if I wasn't drunk? Hmmm, I don't know but that's the shit that came out. I noticed her friend standing next to her, and I didn't want to make her feel bad so I told her to get in the picture as well. Admittedly, she looked pretty cool too.

"Sure!" She shrugged her shoulders, smiled, and cutely posed. Her friend stoicly joined in. Maybe I shouldn't have asked her to be the picture.

"Okay ready? One, two, three!" Yes, my stupid ass actually counted down before taking the picture. Like I said a little drunk.

I walked away, pleased I had added this amazing girl to my Coachella experience. While I was on my way back to my group of pals, my friend Ricky noticed--and later informed me--the guy she was with, thought it was quite funny that I held my drunk fingers out and counted down for the pic. (God that was embarrassing). Apparently, my terriclothed clothed beauty also pondered who I was, and why I was taking the shot.

Later, after uploading all of my images to facebook, I found out this stunning young lady was singer Corinne Bailey Rae. Of course this explained the confusion amongst her and her friends. How the hell could this stranger--me--not have any clue who he was taking a picture of? It was just a day earlier that she performed, and now there was this idiot asking for a pic.

Anyway, I'd like to think there was a part of her who thought it was cool that somebody, who didn't recognize her, asked for her picture just because he appreciated her beauty and style. Perhaps I secretly made her day.

The reason why I'm telling this story though, is because Scott Schuman's latest blog post reminded me of Corinne.

Here's Scott's post.



And here are my pics of Corinne. I guess we appreciate good views yes?

I've decided...

...that I'm going to be a street style blogger somehow.

I definitely need a better camera, but I don't think that should stop me.

Personally, there's just something special about how somebody expresses themselves through the way they dress. Even if you're somebody who "doesn't care" about what you wear, you're still expressing something about yourself. Right?

So the question then becomes is personal style a form of art? Art is expression through some sort of medium right? Can your clothes be your paints, lyrics, instruments, voice, etc...?

What do you guys think?

Until then, enjoy some cute couples from Scott Schuman's Sartorialist blog.

When I can't write

Sometimes I start the writing process too damn late.

In these instances, I'm just going to post a pic of something, or somebody beautiful. The pic above is from Scott Schuman, aka the Sartorialist's blog. He held a vintage photo contest and this photo was submitted.


Enjoy.

Scott Schuman's blog kicks my blog's ass!

This is from The Sartorialist blog.

All I have to say is: fuck yeah this dude is wearing a vintage Bears jacket under a peak lapel navy blazer!
