The case of the baggy crutch, they have been around for a long while now but I am not tiring. I wore mine last night and they were a delight, we headed to an art gallery opening then some of the most delicious Tapas I have devoured, oh so so good and I was comfortable all the way (not very fashionable to put comfort ahead of style but what the hey I do this just about always).
I realise that the old baggy crutch skinny leg thing isnt really everybodies cup of tea, definitely not the most flattering either but I enjoy them immensley. These particular pantaloons will be available here in a few short days, woohoo!
The necklace I am wearing here is a massive brass fox head that was made to decorate horse saddles back in the day on some thick round leather, I will post about a simply amazing little collection I have of these shortly and I also have to tell you about the staircase but another time another time. Happy sunny weekend! x

My most memorable photographic moment would have to be in Sanfrancisco. I Was only there for a very short time and 1 quick visit to the bridge. In that short amount of time there was a smog cloud over the bay only for a few minutes but just enough time for me to get some absolutely incredible black and whites. Once in a life time for me!

When I do my rock gig shoots I will usually go total rockstar leather jacket and tight jeans!
