Rockout.

I haven't been finding as much inspiration in the blogosphere/fashion magazines as I would like to as of late. I don't know if you guys remember or followed the first season of Project Runway, but I really loved the simple idea behind Jay McCarroll's final collection, that the worlds of music and fashion are very much intertwined and music often inspires fashion, so essentially you could call this post my little tribute to Jay. Anyway, here are some musical artists with great style. I wouldn't really say that all of these outfits are particularly unique, but they inspire me, so I wanted to post them:

The Kills





My Man, Devendra





The Lovely and Weird Joanna Newsom





MGMT





Bat for Lashes



Check them all out on last.fm if you haven't heard of them, though I'm sure you probably have. You can find my page here.

Oh, and here's Jay's show at New York Fashion Week, if you're curious or haven't seen it!

I Want You.

So bad, it's drivin me mad.

Glam Rock.

This is excellent! Finally a way to wear a sequined jacket that doesn't look tacky.

Bowler Hats.

I need one in my life asap!

Also, sorry for my absence. It's currently crunch time at uni, but hopefully I will be updating regularly again soon. Thanks for reading!

Some Inspiration.

it makes you look like a lumberjack, but are you man enough to wear it? - jens lekman

I just ordered this bad boy. Say what you will, but I am obsessed with it. It is so loud and obnoxious that it's actually perfect. Now I can finally be warm in Norwich (fyi, I am studying abroad at the University of East Anglia for the year). The students from last year totally lied when they said we wouldn't need a decent winter coat! I am freezing my bum off! Anyway, phew, problem solved thanks to this hideous blue plaid zip up.

Kanske Är Jag Kär I Dig.

I stumbled upon this brand in Topshop, and I'm definitely in love.
Dr. Denim Jeans

Georgia Jagger.

This girl can rock a bowler hat. I really think she's going to be one of the next fashion "it" girls.

Geek Chic.

I finally got the Ray Ban glasses that I've been coveting for months! I know that everyone has them, but I'm so in love.

Masc meets Fem.

Just ordered this jacket from Urban. I was tempted to get the skirt as well, but I keep reminding myself that I need to save my money for England, haha (I'll be studying in Norwich this fall). I really love the look of a jacket like this with a floral, feminine skirt, as shown in the photo above. The combination of masculine and feminine pieces always seems to fit together so perfectly. I think that a pair of Dr. Martens would look great with this too.

There is a similar skirt with more ruffles available from Forever 21 for about 1/2 the price of the Urban one. I might just get it.
