"Ami Sioux has a different take when it comes to travel photography. The Paris-based photographer just released REYKJAVIK 64°08N 21°54W, the first installment of a five part series. Sioux asked 50 people from Reykjavik to hand-draw a map leading to a place of their choosing that was significant or important to them for any reason. She then follows this treasure hunt of sorts, finds and photographs these places, and couples the photo with the original hand drawn map in the book."

the anxiety of icon-ness


i'm no ardent virginia woolf fan, though i think she's perfectly fine, and i also get a little tired of every historical figure being turned into "style icons" by the ever-growing legions of designers with no ideas of their own...


...but as we're moving into fall i've been sort of wishing i had a lot of slouchy virginia woolf dresses (plus cardigans, plus soft warm scarves) and school-marmy heels. or, should i say, i've been wishing i had those items plus the healthily willowy body they look best on.


anyway, here are some lovely versions of virginia to think about, because it's september!
