Earl Grey

The most beautiful bouquet keeping me company on the bus home last night. I love how wild and natural it looks - I'm told this bunch is called 'Earl Grey'. 

Tube Style II

Maybe I'll start a series of people on the tube?!
Loved the 90s style length and print of this skirt - and the thick satin ribbon used as laces

Elsie

Elsie 'Toodles' Thomas, c 1907-8 
Alvin Langdon Coburn 
I went to see the new Pre-Raphaeltite and Photography exhibition today, and while being pretty underwhelmed was struck by how modern some of the early color photography looked - this c.1907 photo could be straight out of a current fashion editorial.

London's Skyscrapers

Shooting amidst London's Skyscrapers last week for a SS16 campaign... This was shortly before it started snowing!

Bow shoes

Imagine my happiness this morning when at the National Gallery, I realised my latest shoe purchase would not look out of place on the foot of an early 19th Century landscape painter:
Louis-Auguste Schwiter, 1826-30
Eugene Delacroix
