London Fashion Week- Spot Iñaki on Street Style Photos

You can't imagine how so not fashion appropriate was the moment when I found my picture by Tommy Ton on the American GQ website. I was ill in bed bbm-ing some friends and just browsing through GQ's street style pictures from London Fashion Week. I always have some hope that I might find one of myself.
It goes without saying that this made me feel instantly better. I don't know how Tommy Ton does it but he makes anyone look pretty good.

In the same group of photos from London I found another of someone else with me on the background and I thought it would be funny to share the few pictures of me at fashion week that I randomly came across. I don't get snapped but, boy, I am in the background a lot! Haha.
First is me entering Somerset House on menswear day, also by Tommy Ton. In the second one I am patiently waiting for the Beyoncé show to start (do you know who that woman is?). In the third I am chatting to some people before we taking a seat for the Christopher Kane show, and the last one, also by Tommy Ton, is at the exit from the show.

Jak & Jil puzzles

I wasn't aware of Jak & Jil's existance until about two years ago, when a dear and very chic friend pointed out to me that it should be on my list of fashion sites to visit daily. Ever since then I visit it religiously. My favourite thing about the way Tommy Ton takes the pictures is that you always want to see more. None of his pictures are a 100% satisfying (in a good way) because you would like to see the rest of the outfit, or put a face to the style. He always ends up adding at least another previously unseen part of the most interesting outfits and this is where my hobby starts. I try to predict the other bits that he'll publish of the same outfit and so I save them and wait. So far, I haven't been that right... which makes it all a little sad altogether but made me think of an even weirder idea. Why don't they make Jak & Jil puzzles for kids where they have to find the different pieces to an outfit? That would raise a generation os stylish and clever people. And from that to world harmony there's just a step.
