you may have noticed...

for anyone who has been following this blog for a while now you may have noticed since the beginning of the year that the street style shots are frequently starting to be mixed with assorted cultural references spanning film, music, art and so on. put simply, when i started documenting street style close to two years ago there were just a handful of blogs doing the same and now it appears everyone has jumped on the bandwagon. which leaves me feeling kinda bored and particularly, as though i'm following a trend when in fact i set out to do just the opposite. therefore, whilst i'll still attempt to include the occasional street shot, i think the time is right to integrate different influences and discoveries that catch my eye, all of which essentially echo the spirit that is delinlee delovely. i hope every one of you will stick with me on this and enjoy the ride. if you learn something new every couple of days or if i can add an element of surprise or inspiration to your world then i'm accomplishing my mission.
