Looking for inspiration?

Yipii I finally bought the book I’ve wanted for sooo long but somehow I couldn’t manage to find the time to order it on amazon.com. Some days ago I accidentally saw it at the bookstore AND now it’s here in my hands :) The Sartorialist by Scott Schuman. Love it.

http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/ is a blog I’ve been constantly following for 3 years. I think Scott Schuman is the one who perfectly shows that personal style is all about self expression. But fashion is just a drop in the ocean. Blog is very inspirational and I like that Schuman lets the pictures talk themselves, no labels, no brands.
If you don’t own the book already you might think why to buy book if you can find Schuman’s pictures in his blog. You know, the reason is simple – it’s a BOOK (something that you can hold in your hands) you put on your night or coffee table and browse when you lack inspiration. And I’m absolutely sure you will find pictures that you’ll love and find inspirational because they are so different – super feminine vs super masculine vs androgyny; rich people vs homeless, teens vs seniors from all over the world.

 Of course, no one can deny that Schuman has his own style and taste when choosing who to shoot but for me it’s more about the details, I love how he finds the tiniest things, details, patterns and shapes in the outfit that basically build up the whole look.

  2. grāmatu var nopirkt Vecrīgas grāmatnīcā Globuss (man škiet, ka tā viņu sauc) - tā, kas blakus bijušajai Vanilla Caffe :)
