Rodarte

I found a copy of this Rodarte jumper worn here by an Olsen twin at TopShop today. It even had the same pulls after getting snagged on two shoppers I passed by as I walked through the store to find Harold Ho (who was ironically shopping in Top Shop for items to copy for the high street...ah the vicious chain of fashion rip offs!)

Patti Smith

In Paris last week my friend played me a Patti Smith record I hadn't heard before-Twelve 2007. The whole album is random covers, some selected purely because they happened to come on the radio in her local cafe. I've fallen in love with a few tracks; Everybody Wants To Rule The World, Gimme Shelter & Pastime Paradise.  Patti is playing in London later this month at the Ornette Coleman's Meltdown Festival. Oh and I have front row tickets. How lucky.

Satorialist's Fresh Take On Australian Fashion

I just love the Sartorialist's new photographs from his recent time in Australia.  I think the shots accurately portray the country and its inhabitants as the culturally diverse, forever suprising (brimming with satorialist delights) I know, yet so many people have still to discover.
