Style defines life............

Vinway

a welcome message...... ok: never wear what everyone tells you to, wear what ever offends conformists, go for vintage, steal from the runway, couturiers will forget about La Croix by next season, fashion is clothing with 'style' critiqued by conformists and there will never be another like Lee McQueen 1969-2010.

STYLE OFF: Justify JUNK!!!

JUSTIFY JUNK

Here we go then guys the day you've all been eagerly tuning in to ApparelJunk for: THE JUSTIFY JUNK STYLE OFF:

So this week i asked my co-worker and style mogule FiFi to help me out with the challenge. Taking inspiration for country and west with a 50's twist this is what she came up with:

FIFI FERGUSON'S STYLE: BILLY'S  50's STYLE VINTAGE

Image 1: Very much a modern take on 1950's casual workwear, the look is a rustic collaboration that includes:

Barbour Jacket: Pre 1983, with a wax finish, rare find./Shirt rare Ralph Lauren ladies wear 1980's. FiFi quotes 'I love this shirt is a common find with great asthetics that anyone can pull off in anyway they want'. (WE TOTALLY AGREE).

GET THE LOOK:  get down to Spitalfields market in London/also check out Bond Street for the fab Vintage or if in Manchester 'Bionic7'.
