a day in sf part 2

I have a tendency to do PART 1 and then totally forget PART 2. If you haven't noticed that... feel free not to. The topic of hobbies comes up once in awhile. There are a lot of talented bloggers who are also designers or photographers. My background is in print. So generally, my hobby includes looking at magazines and making comments about how one person's work is better than the other.

On Saturday, my friend and I went to shoot pictures. Our friend Franklin joined us back at the apartment to hang out and look through an impressive archive of fashion books and magazines. Note the out of print Raf Simons Redux in hardcover. So sexy.

It's important to produce good work.

2002-04 were probably the most formative years of my fashion upbringing. And Jessica Miller was definitely one of the hot girls at the time. LOOOOVE HER. This is from a 2003 issue of Paris Vogue.

Steven Klein for Dutch Magazine 2002.

Devon Aoki... of course.

Helmut Lang and his gang.

Anyways, I know a lot of fashion magazines are featuring bloggers. And that's cool. But just because someone is getting xx hits a day doesn't mean that it's going to translate into xx magazine readers. Magazines should just continue to produce good work. Because that's all that really matters. Really.
