The Zoo Keeper's Boy

As most of you know, I've been fond of a car boot sale bargain these past few months. But I couldn't resist paying, dare I say it, full retail price for this denim shirt from Topman. I love the distressed quality of it, reminding me slightly of Kings Of Leon back in their full bearded and raw sounding days. I'm still staying true to my own attempts at cheap innovation however. The bottom picture is my own twist on recent trends. There's a self made snood that was weaved into shape from an originally thick and simple scarf. And the shirt on show is unconventionally buttoned to create an offbeat jacket of sorts. I'd like to think it would suit a circus ringmaster in a Tim Burton wonderland.

  5. Thankyou so much James. Means a lot, coming from a gentleman of exceptional style yourself. Your lookbooks are always on trend, and creating them for that matter too. If you have the time, check out a band called 'Fever Ray.' She's the singer from The Knife, and the music is haunting and as beautiful as Bjork

  6. Charleston! Awesome outfits, that denim shirt needs to be mine! Why, oh why is there no Topman in Belgium? That's an angry e-mail I need to add to my long list of angry e-mails :-)
    And I love the Kings of Leon reference, as I am a huge fan of theirs.
    Greets!
