Here's the graduate collection of the designer Alexandra Poppy McGrady, who's currently working in the menswear department at Burberry Prorsum. I found it on used magazine, and I was immediately smitten. The clothes speak for themselves I think, but the art direction and styling (and everything, really) on this photoshoot for the collection is so very inspiring to me. 

"Her graduate collection, a hyper-covetable and contemporary riff on heritage wear - think North of the Birmingham border rather than hee-haw Americana - sees Donkey jackets and storm coats, overalls and turned-up denim trews updated with new textile treatments of wax and foil." USED MAGAZINE

I can't handle this.

Bjorg's recent release of their s/s '13 jewelry collection and lookbook is so baffling to me right now. It's amazing how the dramatic photography manages to not take away from the designs. First you notice the stunning composition, then your eyes wander to that necklace shining through the darkness of these pictures. What a reaction this brought me! The images bring a 15th century, renaissance-y aesthetic to mind, while still maintaining relevance and modernity with the clear, digital images and use of photoshop.

Round of applause! Now where can I get the money for those glasses?
