Trucker Intellectuals

Intelectual trucker style

These two made us think of Hunter S Thompson, in true "trucker intellectual" style...

Another lumberjack-cool (or as our friend Hipsterrunoff would say, alt?) I love his hair, super skinnies and black plimsoles.

Lumberjack cool - Portobello

plaid shirt girl

See, more black and red plaid! the lumberjack -cool is now a very hot trend. I love the little moccasin boots too, and the hair and peacock earrings, all very consistent.

Italians... Portobello

italian couple

The red plaid is ubiquitous right now... and here is one of the many examples I will be posting in these coming days. These two illustrate well my obsession with couples that dress alike and are, therefore, part of the same "fashion tribe". I always ask myself if they meet and are attracted because they dress alike, or if one serves as fashion inspiration to the other as the relationship evolves... Any thoughts?

I love love love this girl's look, from the glasses to her jacket and red top to the ripped jeans and star-stripey converse, to her blue fingernails, all working together in perfect stylish harmony, tres geeky chic!

Pink tights and layering... Portobello

When I asked where she got her tights and shoes she responded only shoes £1, tights £3... creating your personal style from inexpensive pieces, priceless!

Post Modern at Portobello

shorts and great hair

I scouted him at Portobello, and I loved his post-modern asymmetrical hair and shirt. A very cohesive style...

Balenciaga bag at Bond Street

Balenciaga bag at Bond Street

To me true style is defined by the way someone is able to combine pieces of clothing and accessories that come from completely different places to create something new yet harmonious. This girl illustrates this very well. Her dress is from a shop in Denmark, her boots are from Topshop and her bag is Balenciaga.
