sweet and vicious

Stylist Jane How never fails to please me. Along with Bay Garnett and Steph Stevens, How's work often leaves me feeling like a 15 year old in a small town, transforming the pages from an editorial into golddust, a little stylistic porthole to something beautiful. The kind of editorials that form an indent in the magazine's spine from lying open as a form of morning dressing inspiration for a month or so. 

See How's spread in August's W Magazine. 'Sweet and Vicious' is all freshly-brushed static teenage hair and gap teeth combos, tartan skirts and tight jumpers. Let the page indenting begin.

LOVE this! The plaid, pleating and wool all remind me of my school uniform, but a much better version. Thanks for sharing, will look up more of How's work now

I love the makeup in the first photo--the lipstick, the subtly smoky brown eye makeup.
