    No photos available yet as I am still trying to figure out how to coax my laptop into recognising my new phone, but today I am working the late forties (my estimation) workwear look:

    Akubra Campdraft Deluxe in Silverbelly;
    Short sleeve, multi-colour checked shirt (pattern and colour very similar to Dress Stewart tartan), worn with a plain burgundy satin cravat;
    Freddie's of Pinewood 1940s jeans, worn with braces;
    brown leather shoes with imprinted crocodile pattern;
    Aero 30s Halfbelt in brown fqhh.

    In a pinch, I could probably pass for an extra from Near Dark.
    If in doubt - overdress.

    Near Dark? You mean...that mid-80's vampire thingy with Bill Paxton? Sweet!


    Pretend that you owe me nothing and all the world is green.

    Yes, you would. It's just that you'd have leased it to Apple Inc. for an indefinite period of time.

    You know, if Baudelaire had lived today, he might have written that the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was marketing himself under a fruit logo.

    Just to get this thread back on track, here's me today, trying for a '50s look and pretending it's spring. Pencil skirt, blouse with birds, bangles & '50s mother of pearl earrings.


    Don't ask what's up with my expression because I have no idea either!

    Almost looks like something out of the Dick Van Dyke Show.
    ...Where did you get that hat, where did you get that tile? Isn't it a nobby one and just the proper style! I should like to have one just the same as that. Whereever I go they'd shout "hello, where did you get that hat?..."

    Taken about a week ago, during a photoshoot I arranged to get some good portrait shots for my mother...



    Photo taken by Mr Hanson Leatherby http://hansonleatherby.com/ (The other half of Jenny, our own Yesterdaygirl). Very gifted, fun to work with and highly recommended for anyone looking a shoot.

    I don't care for most photos of myself - I adore this one. When I write my novel and need a dust jacket photo....
