And the lady vanished. In a very English way, without good-byes, I slipped away from the blogosphere into the real world where the autumn kissed my face with sunshine and caressed the skin with the most delicate air imaginable. Those were the simple pleasures of life that make you close yours eyes and smile… It was blissful. And so perfect for the tired mind that craved sleep and peace. Thank you for bearing with my unexpected silence and lack of comments and still stopping by my blog – the blog and I really appreciate it.
Today it’s Christy Turlington again, photographed by Arthur Elgort and styled by Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele for the All about pants story featured August 1993 issue of American Vogue. Unlike last week’s portraiture, today the focus is on menswear inspired fashion and my favourite shade of grey, particularly beautiful with an application of stripes upon its flannel surface.
The only issue I have is with the title… I really, really, don’t like the word “pants”… Trousers, shorts, culottes, jodhpurs, jeans… They have their own melody and identity. Pants just sound like a slap in ones face. Ugly. No wonder the word is often used to express frustration or anything of a poor quality. Sorry for dedicating a whole paragraph to the word, but this really is one of those I am allergic to.
