No, guys, this isn’t part of American Apparel’s “dirty girls eat popsicles” series, it’s a taste of Ben Sherman’s new ad campaign. It’s also a sign that Ben Sherman is looking to shed it’s genteel persona and untuck its shirt. The company known for looking sharp and keeping crisp seems to be having an identity/mid-life crisis–just look at the sloppy mess and the blue saliva string. Jesus, what would Paul Weller say?
Forgive the dramatics, but this picture bums me out. It marks the end of an era. I suppose it was bound to happen what with the lack of kids going Mod or Skinhead these days, but still it stings. I blame Emo.
Ah, everything changes: stay gold, Ponyboy Curtis.

Oh, deary me, Lily, you look amazing in these new GQ photos. I can’t peel my eyes away, but I’m a sucker for pseudo topless pics–it’s a good way to be naked but not sleazy in a men’s magazine. It’ s just what I would do.

We hope you enjoyed Wham’s Last Christmas. Here are some of our favorite blog photos this week:
- Worship Worthy gives us a glimpse of futuristic unisex sportswear line Hood by Air. We believe we can fly.
- Makeup Beat wonders what happened to Debbie Dickinson, sister to Janice. We’re intrigued.
- Couture Cult isn’t impressed with Royalty, Lil’ Kim’s new fur coat line. Yikes, us neither.
- Style Bubble would rather see the Grey Gardens costumes than get “Carrie’d Away.” We’ll drink to that.
- Clothes Pin tells us all about eco-friendly and super stylish Filly Designs. We are filled with desire.
- Swag and Cradle can’t kick the addiction to Valenki-Felt Boots for moms and babies. Yay!
