ALL TIME FAVE: HEDI SLIMANE DIARY

I've been keeping up with Hedi Slimane's diary every since I discovered it in early 2009. Known mostly for his work as a fashion designer, Hedi also has an impressive resume of other activities, including music, furniture design, album cover design (hey Phoenix & Daft Punk), and the aforementioned photography diary. Mostly black and white photos, Hedi's photography embraces the worlds of fashion, music, celebrity, youth and counterculture. That said, you might catch a few familiar faces amidst the photos--some of my personal favorites are his shots of Courtney Love, Pete Doherty, Allison Mosshart and let us not forget the amazing cover of Lady Gaga's FAME MONSTER...Here's a small taste of what Hedi has in store for you HERE. 

STREET STYLE PHOTOGRAPHY: JAK & JIL

This past week, February 10-17th, thousands of fashionably dressed individuals took it to the streets of New York City for this years annual Fall Fashion Week. Having featured a piece on street style photography in our current issue it felt only appropriate to do a roundup of some favorite fits captured by those talented photographers who dedicated their week (and undoubtedly gained a few grey hairs) to scouting out the best of the best dressed. The combination of stylish outfits and delectable photography makes street style photos one of our favorite guilty pleasures. Enjoy!
