....let me tell you how. I recently came across a wonderful new application created by Tag Media. Tag Media are a business to business platform that will connect you with fashion retailers and brands. To join in first of all you have to join in at TAGMAG.co. Then through their neat technology you will be able to link (TAG) what you are wearing or have shot street style like me, to a huge directory of garments with luxury retailers such as Net-a-Porter, My-Wardrobe and Browns or high street giants such as Forever 21, ASOS and Topshop. Or you can mix it up and TAG what alternatives are available from both. Totally up to you. Each image you TAG will have a little shopping cart appear in the top left hand corner which will alert your readers to the fact that they can shop the look. As you can see if you scroll back up my images. If you then roll your cursor over the images you can see how they are tagged. Your tagged images will also appear over on TAGMAG too.
So how does this I make me money I hear you cry. Well the brands use the TAG NETWORK to find their targeted influencers, review their stats, rates, book campaigns and measure results.
The TAG NETWORK puts you right in front of the major decision makers for brands and their agencies globally. It gives you a one stop shop for all your and their affiliation needs. Embedded advertising that fits everyone's needs. So instead of all the links I put in my text, they are right at the heart of the post. Just as it can be for you too. Wishing you happy tagging and earning.

Out and about....double flowers


This picture of Marianne has me dreaming of Spring (which some days is hard to believe is upon us) and Summer. And of lighter brighter days.

Out and about....the gentle man




Time to return to my Monday man series. It has bee a while but not surprisingly really. For those who have been with me for a long time will know Guerre is a friend. He is one of the friends I run with during the fashion weeks, but unlike the majority of us photographers he is always beautifully turned out. He has true style and grace. The last 2 shots were taken on the Sunday of London Fashion Week there were about 10 of waiting and waiting and waiting for a bus. Which gave us plenty of time to take the first of the final two images and explains the contemplative nature of the second image.
In the 1st image he is wearing a Super Duper hat, vintage Harris Tweed jacket, Gap jumper, Woolrich trousers and Cole Haan shoes. In the second, oh I have just realised I didn't ask....will follow up with this later.

Out and about....Prada and Mary Quant


Mary Quant/Prada flower can anyone see any real difference between the two? I love it but to me it is the Mary Quant flower. I wonder how she feels about it. It is worn here by Francesca Burns from Vogue. I have to say my editors are shy and I rarely get to photograph them. On the other hand it is part of the brief of some of my other streetstyle compatriots to ensure they photograph their own editors as they come and go to the shows. I am very lucky to have the freedom to shoot whoever I want (if they let me :). I am shooting again at the Vogue Festival on the 27th and 28th of April. Hope to see you there.

Out and about....green and blue


...two of my favourite colours. Some say they clash but to me they complement each other. These beautiful Lucas Nascimento pieces are worn by Charlotte Rogers.

Out and about....the camel coat


....does it ever go out of fashion? Like a mac it is a staple we should all have in our wardrobe. Do you agree? Joanna works it wonderfully with white here.

Out and about....changing season





It has been snowing in London again. Last week however it was warm enough for the second look. Bring on the warmth and the sunshine I am tired of the cold and the wet. Nausheen is the fashion editor for OliviaPalermo.com and is a fashion and travel contributor for the New York Post.
In the first shot Nausheen wears a Balmain coat, 7 for All Mankind trousers, Emporio Armani collar and is carrying a Pierre Hardy bag. For the second a Georgia Hardinge coat and dress, Celine bag, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes and Ray Ban sunglasses.

Out and about....Belmodo Tiany










Although I have been shooting street style during the fashion weeks for years now it is always refreshing to meet new people. I don't know how long Tiany has been on the fashion week circuit but the first time I met her was during Couture in Paris in January this year then again in London. She has a pretty impressive site called Belmodo and blog called The Kirilove Blog. And on each occasion I have met her so far she has looked good and has been very lovely personally too. Tiany was a model and TV presenter before turning her hand to working as a fashion and beauty editor and blog owner.

Out and about....80's with a modern twist

From Fashionistable
Every time I look at the is image I find myself thinking Desperately Seeking Susan, but then there is the beanie and the Chelsea boots to bring us bang up to date. This is Sasha and not Susan and she is the buying manager for Net-A-Porter, her look comprises a Elder Statesman beanie, Gucci coat, Kenzo skirt, Burberry boots and is carrying a Lanvin Happy Bag.

Out and about....camera shy

From Fashionistable
I am going to start todays post with Peony's surprise and it was a big surprise to me. Are you ready? Peony doesn't like having her picture taken. I never knew, she is always so wonderful about coming with me to take pictures. Also as asking people to tell me something surprising is something I usually do I am amazed it has taken me so long to find this out. She is wearing a Celine coat with Celine bag, vintage YSL trousers, Hardy Amies glasses, a beret she bought from a tourist shop in Paris, a Tatty Devine necklace and Day et Marina B t-shirt. As I was asking questions this time I also asked Peony where her favourite place was and her answer was home.

Out and about....looking good 24/7


Miroslava Duma I love that her description of herself is first and foremost a "Happy Mum". She puts this before the fact that she is one of the founders of Buro 24/7 and Digital Media Director of TSUM which is the most renowned department store in Moscow. Loving, smart and beautiful what a wonderful winning combination. She is wearing Chanel here.

From Fashionistable
Taylor Thomasi Hill leaving one of the shows at the Topshop Show space in the Tate Modern during London Fashion Week. Very interesting inside out jeans.
