"I like you so much better when you're naked"

That's So New YorkIt's very rare that I use video as a way displaying an entire collection or campaign, yet when it comes to Blood Is The New Black and there creative aesthetic, it would nothing but a shame to waste a admirable look book video and throw images in its place. The Blood Is The New Black Fall 2011 video presents us with just a handful of the prints which Blood Is The New Black will be stocking over the course of the next two to three months. As always with BITNB, the video is ext

That's So New York - I've been feeling a little like a fashion scout over the course of the past two or three weeks; simply because I seem to keep stumbling across designer after designer, that of which have frequently left me pondering something along the lines of "why on earth has this label still not had its big break?" as it seems that even though I've been graced with an unthinkable amount of talent whilst flicking through a number of stores and designer profiles, it is not unusual to see t

Solveig Selj

That's So New YorkAfter reading a wonderful post by Barbro Andersen yesterday titled Boys, boys, boys I was introduced to Oslo, Norway-based fashion and portrait photographer,Solveig Selj. With being just as attracted to photography as I am writing, obviously I couldn't help but inquire in regards to a link which would take me over to the official Solveig Selj website, which Barbro kindly provided. As I ventured on over to the Solveig Selj website, I was graced by the likes of two rather full

That's So New York - I'll put my hands up and admit that I have indeed been sat indoors for a relentless amount of time so far this Summer, in-fact, I'm not even sure if I could tell you the last time I ventured out to the town centre or for a meal with friends, or perhaps even simply to attend a small get together or garden party, either way, you've probably gathered that I'm quite the couch potato, yet when you're living in a small village in England, United Kingdom and have woken to the sound

That's So New YorkI've recently come across a number of posts and articles via various blogs in regards to the importance of local connections and creating a relationship with businesses and bloggers in your local area; I will admit that before now I have tended not to pay too much attention to designers, bloggers and business in my local area, simply because I have just a handful of stores which I personally admire in my grasp due to my location and the thought of doing anything but simply p

Designer / Fanny and Jessy

That's so New York - Guess what? London-based design-duo, Fanny and Jessy were kind enough to answer my interview questions; meaning that I now have aspiring designer advice, background information and opinions from the duo in hand. I have to admit, despite the fact that I feel somewhat envious of every female out there and a tinge of hatred towards the label, due to the fact that Fanny and Jessy are a womenswear label and not a menswear label, I feel partially proud to announce that this pair h

Designer / Anastasia Lomonova

That's so New York - That's right, the most recent addition to my archive of interviews is European yet now Canada-based designer, Anastasia Lomonova. The majority of you may recall my introductory post orientated around Anastasia earlier this week? Either way, she's possibly one of the nicest personalities I've spoken to in a while; not to mention her admirable efficiency in replying with the answers to my questions. Honestly, we have something special here; I just know it!

Alex & Chloe | Forever21

That's so New YorkGuess what? Once again the wonderful invention that is email and the ability to subscribe to newsletters has done me well. So, you're probably thinking "What's going on this time?" Right? Don't worry, I bring you tidings of joy as I've been presented with a wonderful jewelry collaboration from Alex & Chloe and Forever21. Enough of my rambling; onto the images ...

Anastasia Lomonova / Spring 2012

That's so New YorkOnce again, multiple designers have been shelling out with kind emails and sending across images from their soon to be launched collections. In this case, we have Anasasia Lomonova, a designer who is originally from Ukraine, Europe yet after the collapse of the USSR she then went onto relocate to Cyprus with her family and now resides over in Canada after training as a visual artist and specializing in oil painting, later moving on and attending Ryerson University, Canada.

Photographer / Todd Anthony Tyler

That's so New YorkWhen it comes to interview posts, I never thought that I would be interviewing photographer, Todd Anthony Tyler. For those of you who are unaware, Todd Anthony Tyler has built up quite the reputation and is now in a position where campaign, advertising and editorial shoots for the likes of Uma Wang, Stella McCartney, Puma, Vogue, L'Officiel, Look Magazine and McDonald's are considered to be somewhat of a frequent occurrence. Todd answered all of my questions thoroughly and h

Stephanie Grace Foy

That's so New YorkBy now I’m sure you’re all aware that I’m somewhat of a hawk when it comes to the release of new stores or finding brand new designer names who I can jot about on more than one occasion (what can I say? I’m not one for a single mention, yet instead like to border on the annoying with multiple kicks of information) whether it be in my notepad, on a sticky note or even right here, shouting about it like I’m some Victorian Londoner who is trying his best to sell the morning new

Fanny and Jessy / Autumn 2011

That's so New YorkEarlier this week, London-based design duo Fanny and Jessy were kind enough to send across the official images from their Autumn/Winter 2011 look book and although I already had a rough idea of what the collection entailed after noticing a feature on another blog, I was extremely impressed with the sheer quality of the images and the abstract personalities behind the designs. Fanny and Jessy are known for their impeccable taste when it comes to those items which are slightly

Question / NATALIE B COLEMAN

That's so New YorkAfter weeks of collecting questions from a series of sources, I thought that today was the day to debut one of my new concepts which I would like to introduce to you all. In addition to interviews, I will also be asking various sources slightly more one off and random questions, to ensure that alongside the professional we see the personal side of a character. I'm completely against the barrier which is held between designers, photographers, business owners and their custome

Alex and Chloe / SALE

That's so New York - Thanks to the wonderful invention that is email and "subscribe" options on various online-stores, this afternoon I received an email from Alex and Chloe which bombarded me with various discounts across the Alex and Chloe store. Brands which have happily slipped themselves into the sale include the likes of Cheap MondayObesity and Speed and The Local Firm, followed by a selection of own-label items from Alex and Chloe; including a series of items from my favorite collection

Maria Lau / Autumn 2011

That's so New YorkGuess what? London-based jewelry designer, Maria Lau has only gone and sent across a selection of images from her Autumn/Winter 2011 collection; that of which she has titled Two Planets, following on from her Spring/Summer 2011 collection which snatched the same titled, yet a completely different concept. 
I mean, how nice of her was that?

Designer / NATALIEBCOLEMAN

That's so New YorkOnce again, I managed to leave you hanging for a more than respectable amount of time; I mean, I think it was early last week when I first started bragging about this interview with designer, Natalie Coleman of NATALIEBCOLEMAN which I was hoping to present to you towards the end of last week at the latest, yet once again college took it's toll and my late-afternoon naps set in; basically? I'm sure it's not a surprise when I say, it didn't get done, alright? (note my attitude

Brian Lichtenberg / Geo Print Shift Dress

That's So New YorkDespite the fact that Brian Lichtenberg has released a total of fifteen brand new garments onto the Alex and Chloe store, regrettably I have to admit that there are just two which have grabbed my attention for the right reasons; primarily due to the fact that they are not text-based graphic t-shirts, as this seems to be something which Lichtenberg has taken an admirable interest for this season in-particular. I’m finding it a little odd that I’m a “guy” (of sorts) yet have t

Mina + Oli

That's So New YorkFrom the various thoughts which have been rushing through my head over the course of the past day or two alone, I think it's safe to say that the simple things in life certainly seem to be pleasing me a little more frequently than usual; all I can assume is that my brain has decided that college is a little too strenuous and persnickety items which hold large amounts of detail are too much for it to process. The result? My mind is becoming more and more attracted to restrict

We Are Selecters / "Escape" Collection

That's so New YorkYesterday evening, the wonderful people over at We Are Selecters were kind enough to send across the look book for their Fall/Winter 2011 collection; that of which has been titled "Escape". After experiencing sheer amounts of joy after flicking through the images, I thought that it would be best to "share" these images with you. See, how nice am I?

Natalie B Coleman

That's So New YorkEarlier this week I was speaking with Dublin, Ireland-based designer Natalie B Coleman and after agreeing to an interview (that of which will I will present to you all mid-week), Natalie was kind enough to send across a selection of images from her Spring/Summer 2012 collection; that of which she has titled All the Jewellery I never Got Pt.2, following on from Autumn/Winter 2011 collection, which you may have guessed followed the same title of All the Jewellery I never Got.
