WGSN photographer visit.

Today we had a talk from a guy who takes photographs on the street for style website WGSN. I thought it was great, and he was absolutely hilarious.
There were archives and archives of photos that he'd taken from along his youth to now, so there were pictures of Sid Viscious amongst them. He also explained how he's really into photographing menswear at the moment, looking back at vintage photos as well. As I've mentioned before, I'm love styling and have thought about the careers that would go along with that, but I also love people watching and outfit spotting, so how amazing would it be to do what he does and take photos of peoples style as a job!!!!!!!!
He went into a bit about style and which men we thought had great style. One that he mentioned was the editor of t magazine I think it was, the magazine that goes with the New York Times. Who I have to agree does know how to dress, on a personal leval, I love Cook from Skins, that sort of Mod look, with the Fred Perry shirts and slim trousers.
Today alsomade me think that yes, I love styling for women, but I've always been quite opinionated on what I think looks good on guys, and when doing the shirt excercise with Claire and styling it for a D&G man, I really enjoyed picking out the style of jeans I thought would wor best and the cardigans, or watch etc. So maybe another career path to think about.
