Good afternoon, Tuesday. Ooh it's hot outside. Happy to be inside today, working away.
And on that note, I've been super slammed at work lately and have not much time to think about writing, blogging, or inspiration seeking. Don't you hate when that happens?
But sometimes looking around online I find things that make me infinitely happy and inspired, and such a thing happened today when I caught a peek at Stella Tennant on the cover of UK Vogue this month, shot by Craig McDean.
Besides Keith Richards, Stella is my spirit animal. I have always been obsessed with her look and adore her quirky cool vibe. And now that I am back in short hair land, I relate to her even more closely than before.
You know what else? I just had a birthday that's a bit of a gulpworthy moment where thoughts of botox and other injectables enter my brain. But then I look at Lady Stella and realize life is better as an English aristo, and if you're not one (I'm not either), at least think like one and just look amazing without all the bells and whistles. I admire her natural visage and think she gets more beautiful every year. You know why? Because her brand of cool is ageless and timeless and better than any stupid real housewife any day and that's the truth.
Enjoy these well styled images and think about your Fall wardrobe even though it's sweltering outside. I love the oversized proportion and the nod to the military and menswear silhouettes. Stella baby, you still got it. And when it comes to your style and general cool factor, I want it.
Cause that's what's up this inspired by style kind of Tuesday in the 212. Yours, in getting better with age. XO
