The best part of the street fashion week:

When Hel-looks updates their website. My personal favorite street fashion blog that has variety and a good reputation. If I could make a living off of photographing random people I think dress well, I would. The new favorites.


I'm really into fake fur, maybe when it gets colder I'll feel the need to try it out. And these tights are everywhere, anyone know where they're from? They must be cheap so I want some!


Actually quoted saying he loves the nerd look, ha.


This isn't from their most recent update but I really enjoy how obvious it is that she wasn't going for the stunningly beautiful. The suit sort of stunts her body shape but in a really fashion appealing way and the necklace that her friend made is amazing. I love huge jewelry like this.

The start of a really boring week I can FEEL IT! I spend all my time sitting in Danish school not knowing what the helll is going on and trying not to go insane. I am becoming stupider by the hour! Must read more! Must buy a new computer!

Tastes exactly right.

A little bit of couture I ran into on style.com that happens to encompass everything I would ever dream to be. I am considering trying to create something far simpler but inspired by this collection though working with so much lace, chiffon and silk can be daunting for such a beginner. The collection isn't really that coherent but the pieces that I love I REALLY love. I think everyone should look this much like a doll all the time.

Toward the end it got a little too dark for me and I am not a huge fan of the ankleless tights but overall I really like this guy.

Enjoying a lazy day or 368.

Oh, the things you may find if you simply start with what you know. I have spent many days arguing with myself over whether or not I should actually put effort into withholding a blog. I live in Denmark as of now and am both overwhelmed with the design and fashion relevance here and overcome with lazyness. I have no real school elements or structure because I am simply an exchange student in a high school learning in a language I do not yet know thoroughly.

I have this year before I am off to college of some sort and I seem to be unravelling in amost mistifying way. I dream of living a life where I create and am surrounded by design. I adore and marvel at fashion design. I am both dumbfounded and amazed by graphic design. Architecture seems altogether impossible. But I always go back to that in my head.

I have decided to produce this blog as means of both rambling and going out in search of something I can really hold on to. To teach myself the names of a few photographers and designers I can remember and know and love. To have some way to shape my own tastes if only slightly and with no real guidelines.

So, I have started at ffffound.com, a bookmarking website full of incredible design and photography that a select group of people pick out for the site. It has much traffic and is throughougly well known so I do not feel it needs much of an introduction.

I can therefore say that my goal for the day has been entirely achieved, I have found one of my new favorite designers that regretably I did not know of before now. I have only just begun to sift through Hedi Slimane's photo diary and fashion diary but am brought to my knees with gratification for this legendary designer.

One of the greats of all time. Here are a few photos that really struck me, or the tip of the ice berg that is my love for this man.











To show simply a few. It could take me a good few hours to look through all of these, thankfully I skpped danish school today and am drinking tea in the basement room of my host family. More to come and at a rapid rate, I can feel the beginning of something.
