29.4.10

you know that it's a fool who plays it cool






Can you spot the difference? The top pair are Grey Ant Status glasses and the ones I'm wearing are Topshop ones, clearly and indubitably erm, 'influenced' by the Status pair.

I mean, I'm all for making designs more accessible to the every man, obviously I'm wearing the Topshop ones for a reason, but what's amusing to me is this- who's job is it to think of ways to integrate a design but change it ever so slightly for the intended legality of it all??
In this case it's obviously the little screws in the corner.

Anyway, there's another 'influenced' pair here.

More outfits to come as soon as camera decides to be fixed/new camera gets delivered. 


Also, this video is so amazing and fun:
