9.8 // random fashion linkage…

Random linkage… and stuff… This is what happens when Dazed has many, many articles that I like and I end up discovering designers and photogs and models and everything. (Sorry it’s not more thought-out and/or well-written, but I figure this gets you to the cool stuff with minimal interruption from me. That and it would [...]

Basically anything I’ve found that’s cool, or anything interesting that’s popped up in my feed reader (thank you Google!!)
