My style icon

This man is god in my eyes!





Most people seem to think I am joking, but I really am not. I think I love him. He has it going on. Check out his:

1) incredible beard
2) Cool sunglasses
3) Jazzy funk hat which neatly links his top and trousers together
3) Where's Wally style polo shirt
4) amazingly shiny and tight ice white slacks with below the knee rainbow band feature
5) pockets sticking out
6) casual flips to round it off

Plus of course that's stance - what a stance it is. Catalogue models can't get that sort of quality pose.

He was pointed out to me on a website called Hel Looks, check it HERE. Some genius goes round Helsinki photographing people wearing interesting outfits. Its a great site and a great idea. We have the lovely Hannah to thank for its discovery.

I want to meet him and shake his hand till it hurts. I thought that Noel Fielding was my style icon until I clapped my eyes on this likely lad. If only I had the guts and panache (is that a word?) to pull off such a look.

reminds me of that thing Brighton Source used to do, where they photographed people round town who dressed originally or well. I liked that feature, it was interesting.

Who is your style icon (besides me)?

HE IS A GENIUS.

Also reminds me of James, the infamous brighton charity shop god. He wears increadible outfits and can be seen touring the charity shops of brighton each day buying crazy clothes. he often wears bondage trousers and a sailor hat! I tried to find reference to him on the web, but alas I have had no luck. I will keep trying and keep you posted! or if I spot him, perhaps I will take a photo.
