Paper Girl

So Debbie Harry - where to start?

You could start with the fact she was in one of the most legendary bands of the punk rock/new wave era - the ever so aptly named Blondie, whose hits still ring out across a plethora of dance floors today.



















Or that she is so totally hot and a real style icon - especially kicking ass in the movie Spun.

Or you could mention the fact that she was in fact a Playboy Bunny and regular at Studio 54.

My favourite though is that she has had not one but two paper dolls made in her honour. Maybe you guys even know of a third?














Available now at Webshots and I Love Mel.

The return of the slogan tee

 
A friend gave me a Zoe Karssen t-shirt recently and I have to say I have fallen head over heels with the brand. Their latest collection 'Rock and Rule' is inspired by various icons from the music and fashion industries such as Alison Mosshart and Blondie with 'easy to wear tongue in cheek graphics for the cool girls in town'. She has also added three extra base colours to the collection this time around - black, grey marl and navy, with white making the offering four options in total. So simple it hurts - and looks fantastic.  
This season’s imagery was the result of a collaboration between Jolijn Snijders and Zoe. Casting models with imperfect beauty, Jolijn Snijder’s photographs exude sensuality but also have a feeling of risk, the perfect match for the Zoe Karssen brand.
