Out and about....The Incredible Miss Jana

From Fashionistable
During London Fashion Week Rosalind from Clothes Cameras and Coffee came to stay. If you haven't met her already I urge you to follow the link have a look at her work. She is an amazing young woman, it was wonderful to have her around. Not surprisingly she is a favourite of many of the other fashion week photographers too. Rosalind is stylish, beautiful and also a woman of substance, being one of the youngest winners of the Vogue Talent Contest, she will intern with them this summer. And in line with her ethical, values and background she was reporting for Oxfam during the shows.

Out and about....Diesel Brothers

From Fashionistable
Around the shows lot of the time I don't know who I am photographing going by instinct and what I think looks good. Only to be blown away when later I am researching back home and in front of the computer. Stefano and Andrea were standing in the middle of a crowd and were quite bemused when I picked them out and asked if I could take their picture. Now the guys did mention Diesel when I interviewed them but still it never dawned on me. I just thought they worked for the brand. They do, but also are the brand - their Dad is Renzo Rosso the founder of Diesel. Stefano works on the development of their charitable arm Only the Brave who's mission is to "Mobilize and empower youth to end extreme poverty" you can see their manifesto here, it is a wonderful and powerful message. Andrea is the creative director of the 55DSL arm of Diesel. Stefano and Andrea are the eldest of Renzo's 6 children. Stefano is wearing a Viktor and Rolf jacket, Maison Margiela trousers and Diesel shoes. Andrea is head to toe in vintage.

Out and about....let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

From Fashionistable
With Britain facing a hosepipe ban we could use a few more days like the one I took Olivia's picture on. How do other countries who have a lot less rain than we do cope I ask myself.... Olivia says that her usual style influence is military uniforms but today is Rock Chick. Her style icons are Daphne Guinness and Kate Moss. Here she is wearing a hat she found, a Topshop shirt, Hogan jacket, Zara trousers, Kurt Geiger shoes and vintage glasses.

Joanna is the the Senior Fashion Market Editor of Harpers Bazzar NY. I was sure I had asked her what she was wearing for the 1st 2 images. But when I looked back on my notes I hadn't. I think she is beautiful and is always beautifully turned out. She reminds me of Gwen Stefani, do you agree?
