Get a holiday wardrobe that’s packed with style #2
I loved this one because it involved trying to look as much like an old, bearded man as possible when I am a young woman with no beard. I rarely feel so feminine. I think he looks really cool and I like my version of his outfit too, even though seeing photos of myself in sunglasses always makes me realise how wonky my ears are.
Packed up
Cracked up
Conclusions:
-
I doubt if anyone at the Guardian had me in mind when they were styling this one, so it wouldn’t be fair to draw too many conclusions
-
It’s fun to earnestly imitate photos of old men in magazines while your friends photograph you though, so I won’t stop either
I've always found it funny when people write letters to the Guardian's Weekend magazine complaining that the recipe ingredients are too middle class and the fashion only looks good on thin people. After all, it's just a magazine. Or is it? I decided to follow its recipes, fashion and lifestyle advice as closely as possible, to see if the aspirations promoted therein can really be achieved by the average reader who is not especially wealthy, not necessarily model thin and is obliged to work regular office hours. This blog has no affiliation whatsoever with the Guardian but I link to the Weekend magazine website for the purposes of illustration.
