The Adventures of Me Me - My Life with Fashion and Words

A Man's World and his Tees

 
 
I'm not pleased by the scant selection of womens tees...so since we live in a "man's" world (NB inverted commas) why not then wear his tees? I do, in fact I prefer them. They seem to have an artistic integrity, which in the battle for my affections, completely destroys the cutesy, sexiness of a womans tee shirt. *Think the little girl in Kick Ass.  It's no wonder that women wear menswear (boyfriend jeans, boyfriend blazer so on so forth...its agenda is more for style than for sex. This is the very reason I bought these two tees when stylemail (that's topmans newsletter for non subscribers) told me they were 70% off, it seemed to much of an economically reasonable suggestion to pass up on. Three working days and I'll be adorned in at least one of these. Or maybe both, (middle of the day dress change... ha, I wish I was diva like that).

I know the song and I've been admiring Roisin Murphy since Moloko but I'm not entirely sure how this video slipped from my radar. It was probably when I worked 12 hour days and television did not make the cut. I hate to think I'm 3 years lagging but I'm all over delighted. Roisin couldn't have done better job and so to Gareth Pugh who dressed her. If I were a man the style would have made me hard. A bit much? Ok, if I were an ant this would be my picnic?

Look What I Found...

My bone marrow is tingling with Theophulis London.
I'm buzzed with his electro effervescence
Excited by his Hip Hop hardness
Reminded of great music
Love his nostalgic great music
Not least of all I'm crushing on his style
What an accomplished young man!
I recommend downloading Jam! and This Charming Man

Watch (Complex photo shoot video)

Look (at his gorge style)
