Scott Schumann, The Sartorialist

So if you haven't heard of The Sartorialist before,  click here to find a new obsession...

Scott Schumann is the creator and owner of a fashion blog called The Sartorialist. I am a huge fan and follow religiously, simply because his photography and commentary are both so honest and to the point. He's focussed and suave, and his eye for trends is unbelievably accurate and innovative. He has one of the coolest jobs on the planet, no doubt about it.

This is a short documentary of Scott Schumann, doing what he does best. It's great in that it gives one a fleeting chance to meet the man behind the lens, as well as understand his vision of The Sartorialist.

Man About Town

Man About Town is a publication here in Europe that focuses on men's fashion and style. Unfortunately I am yet to get my hands on one of the magazines, but one thing for sure is that they have wicked little clips that they bring out with their seasonal ranges. This is one of them with Aaron Johnson. Really great take on old school 70's style with the haircut, chunky knit sweater, and the pants with the short legs revealing the white socks. Awesome.

This is Nels

This is Nels. I met him on Portobello Road... Crazy combination of clothing but it works!

I just thought this woman looked so cool. She came cycling past me on Portobello Road.

Man About Town

Is this just not the most well executed fusion of two completely different worlds you've ever seen? I first saw this on a blog called The Fox Is Black, a very polished publication which a friend told me to take a look at. It actually gave me a lot of inspiration for what I'm trying to achieve on this page. A celebration of life, and the things that surround me. This is a place where I want people to come and take five minutes out of their day to sit, search and then say "Damn, that's pretty cool"!

It's all about the flannel...

Recently I've been taking some photos for GQ magazine's online website for their Street Style section. Stellenbosch was a cinch, but Durban has been a serious battle! I've scoured high and low for some content and managed to put together a couple of trendy looking guys and girls, but hell was this a task. Why is it that Durban battles to keep up with the trendy times? It marches to a different beat this East Coast of ours. It's a stroll, and it's chilled and laidback. But that is the beauty of it all I guess... Nothing seems to phase Durban!

I snapped this gentleman just off Florida road in Durban outside the barber shop I use. Nice!

Autumn is on its way, so get those flannel shirts ironed...
