Photoshoot: Paul McCartney by Jean-Marie Perier

A spread that Paul did for Salut Les Copains.

So you want to be a style icon?

Continuing on with the modern day Sixties style is Brit It Girl Alexa Chung. She's on the cover of the latest Teen Vogue, and while the styling and photos are great, I find Alexa a bit hard to like when she uses terms like "glamping" (Glamorous Camping) or claimed everyone was "copying" her style (oh please, like she invented Sixties fashion). Then again, I am highly alarmed that her style icons tend to be men (so are mine! I see a pair of pants and think 'Andrew would so wear these' or 'Hey, this looks like a shirt Paul wore' so of course I end up buying psychedelic pants and flowery or stripey shirts). And when she sees an attractive boy she uses the phrase "BGA" or Bloody Gorgeous Alert (again, I must admit, unfortunately, I do the same, the americanized version of the pharse though). So maybe Alexa is copying me?!

Sweet Jane

I fell in love with this spread while flipping through Muse fashion magazine at the bookstore. The model is the beautiful Edie Campbell. The styling is perfect and the photographs just lovely and so very Sixties.

Linda's Life in Photographs

In honor of Linda's birthday on the 24th, I scanned most of the photos from her latest book. There is something quite intriguing about Linda's photography. Flipping through the book you feel like you're looking through the pages of someone's family photo album. The subjects in the photographs seem so normal and natural, that is, if your family and friends included the likes of Paul McCartney and Jimi Hendrix. One tends to forget that these idols are human too. Linda photographed some of the greatest icons of the 20th century and made them human. And that is the magic of her photography.
