//131/ Isa Asklof Swedish Beauty

Meat-packing District, Manhattan

Photography: Lesha Kremov

Model: Isa Asklof

//On a scale of one to ten, how badly does this make you want to go blond? I'm right up there at ten. This is the swedish beauty Isa Asklof from NY Models (maybe don't look at the polaroids...they are less attractive, though perhaps also a testament to the fact that skilled photographers, stylists, make-up artists etc. can in fact create at least a bit of an illusion).

//On the subject of blond, you may or may not know that the entire purpose of the Peroxide Blonde was to create incentive for me to dye my hair, well, a peroxide blond. At 10 000 views.  I expect this goal to be reached within the next month; I promise to put up images once I am peroxide blond...

Ein Stück vom Himmel

Publication: Vogue Germany

Issue: May 2011

Photography: Claudia Knöpfel, Stefan Indlekofer

Styling: Nicola Knels

Model: Jacquelyn Jablonski

//To be frank, I usually find the Vogue Germany editorials rather ordinary and uninspired. This, however, is sleek, simple and classy with some edge. It also features Jacquelyn Jablonski who has made quite a name for herself of late. My personal favourite? The pythonleather vest from Balenciaga (image four), so I like leather...sue me!

//Here in Cape Town summer is somewhat reluctant in giving way to fall-much less to winter, thank goodness!- so why bother about thinking winter clothing just quite yet. Besides I know that most of you have your tickets booked to Thailand, Spain, Australia, in my case Berlin, or wherever else it is you are seeking warmth, so here's to an endless summer filled with bright colours, silk-blends and clashing prints...

//I loved her pastel colour-blocking and then he decided to jump into the photo with his super cool neon watch...awesome.

Zara April 2011 Lookbook

//Oh yes, I know this re-posting is getting somewhat tedious, but I am very busy at the moment...I am however still photographing a lot. Anyway this is really some next level shit and got me excited to shop in Berlin in June and July. Yes, of course I will focus on local designers, but Zara really does have a lot to offer too. This is majorly inspired by the Céline and Jil Sanders collections but what the hell, it`s affordable...

Mango Spring Lookbook 2011

Photography: Terry Richardson

Model: Isabeli Fontana

//The different components of this lookbook are all not too awful: there are some decent pieces, the photography is okay, the setting is nice. What really makes it however, is the beautiful Isabeli and her ability to look totally natural in front of the camera. She even managed to save the dreadful styling, which really was quite bad in some of the images (I selected only the best). So there you go: the model does actually need to be "talented"...

//121/ Dress: Men

Publication: Another Magazine

Model: Jay

//I have been asked on several occasions to post "guy stuff", so here you have it. Okay, this is most likely not what you imagined when you asked for male dress, but let us for once put away the white T-Shirt and skinny jeans and look at something more...elaborate. Draped materials, ruby shirts, suits, chains (!): this is taking male dress to a whole nother level. So here's to men putting more effort into dressing...
