A Human side to the MET Gala.

My respect for Vogue went up a notch when I learned that one of my all time favourite photographers and bloggers, Brandon Stanton of 'Humans of New York', had been approached to capture some of his usual magic at this year's MET Gala.

BIG beats little (in this instance anyway).

Clearly I am a lover of the little things. But sometimes life can throw you something big. And that is also very loveable.

Racy vs Racewear

This is something I've wanted to discuss for a long time.

When did racewear get so darn racy?

Backless dresses, micro mini skirts, plunging necklines, sheer fabrics and heavy makeup. A very difficult and sensitive argument I know, because ultimately who decides on what is 'appropriate' and what is not? And should there really be rules when it comes to fashion?

I just believe that racewear deserves some respect. Something can be fun & flirty and still brush the knees, fitted and elegant and still allow you to bend over. A little imagination is all you need.

Now it's your say, what do you think? Am I just a prude, hooked on tradition who desperately needs to get with the times? OR, is it time for racewear to raise the bar?

The swing of things.

I've been lacking spare time and a clear head this past month and a half. Which means my blog has been seriously neglected and I feel downright awful about it.

I figured I wasn't going to post anything until I had something really awesome to share with you all. Truth is, it may not be very awesome to anyone other than myself!

Anyway, I've recently purchased a few new pieces (yes that means outfit shoots are coming!), practiced a few new tricks on the camera and scratched my head some more about creating a proper blogger identity. A true mixture of soul searching and f*cking around, the immediate result is a shiny new 'About TLT' profile page!

Check it out and let me know what you think. I'm getting back in the swing of things.

Dressing for a (wo)man.

I want to ask you a question. Do you dress for a man, or do you dress for a woman?

What repels Who?

To be, or not to be.

I'm sitting here stumped. Contemplating what on earth to do about my blogger profile. Can I just leave it blank? Do you really need to know anything about me?

Alexander Wang – Behavioural Scientist?

Nothing can prepare you for the horror show that is Alexander Wang's recent publicity stunt, where he gives away free clothes to a group of unassuming New York City fans.
