The only thing that I scored was a modern version of a Parka jacket, that immediately awakened my inner Jimmy Cooper, my love for Quadrophenia, the Who and everything related to the Mod's culture.
I noticed that many designers created 60's inspired collections for the next spring-summer, so well, because we don't want to be like anybody else, let's start from this season to be someone or, as Jimmy said: you might as well jump in the sea and drown....

you´re so talented! xxx
ReplyDeleteGreat collages - as always ! ! The parka is fab and so are you .
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how many times I've watched Quadrophenia, it's one of the best films ever!!! Your Mod tribute is the best, you look so hot in your parka and mini skirt, Ace The Face would die to dance with you and take you for a stroll along Brighton beach.
ReplyDeleteThe vintage fair I'm doing on Sunday has a scooter rally, I'll try and take lots of pictures of pretty boys on Lambies! x
Sting was so pretty in that movie. You're rocking that mini dress.
ReplyDeleteYou always make me think of things I had long since forgot, I really dug Quadrophenia but I bet it's been 20 years since I watched it! I love these mod collages makes me wanna get on a Vespa and come take you for a ride but you have to wear a short lil dress like that. You look hot and tough and beautiful how can you manage all that in one outfit? I love the contradiction in what you wear and I think you have a smoking hot bod! Hard to believe you have had two girls! I hope your trip to Florence was wonderful and maybe you and I could try to Skype next week? I wanna see you for real!

Xxxxxxoooo
I let out a big squeal when I saw this come up in my reader. Have you dyed your hair red? It really suits you, woo woo! I have seen Quadrophenia but it was years ago. You totally rock the mod look but then you have the perfect body for it. I would end up looking like a tubby Toyah Wilcox!! I love the parka, the over knee boots and dark nails, you look sexacious (as Helga would say) xxxxxx
ReplyDeleteAwesome my petal, awesome!! those are awesome collages!! Love Mod stuff :)) xx
ReplyDeleteI love Quadrophenia. I have often walked around Brighton spotting all the film locations, I like the cafe by the pier especially. I have a US army parka like the mods wear on their scooters, it's always lovely and warm. I went to a screening where they had one of the scooters from the film on display, it was just lovely.
ReplyDeleteDo you like the other Who film, Tommy? That was filmed almost entirely in the city where I used to live and the street I lived in before I moved in with Andy is at the start of the film. My mum was also an extra in it and saw Keith Moon naked!
i loved "i'm too busy acting like a mod to care if my dress is too short." i may have to adopt that as my personal motto! looking fab as always. xx
ReplyDeleteExcellent! How gorgeous are you? I loved Quadrophenia. 'Bellboy!'
ReplyDeletexxxx
I love your collages, they are so amazing. All the cool girls here still seem to be in love with the 50s but I think mod is much more my style!
ReplyDeleteYou are an absolute GENIUS, and your posts a work of art everytime., ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ReplyDeleteXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Oh man, now I have to add parka to the "want" list, you make it look so cool! (I will look like a little kid dressing up in mum's clothes.) Can't say I loved or hated Quadrophenia, I guess a little of both, but I liked it enough to watch numerous times (the clothes! oh the clothes!) I think I'm due for another viewing. We used to always go to this great restaurant in London where they filmed exterior shots for Quadrophenia, I hope I still have the shots somewhere as I was writing a story about them, but then they had to shut down ): boo hiss XXX PS found you through Vix!
ReplyDeleteWow, you look stunning as a Modette! I haven't seen Quadrophenia since it came out, perhaps I ought to watch it again.
ReplyDeleteAmazing collages as always, love that little clip of the gorgeous Peggy Moffit.
You are rocking that micro mini dress with the parka, you are one hot mama! xxxx
Oh my goodness, Quadrophenia- another fave! You can take on any look and pull it off!
ReplyDeleteSixties - don't get me started...! All you need now is a Vespa (or a chopper bike maybe) but a gang of Vespa gals would be good. Sign me up. Your collages are brilliant. I love your world view.
ReplyDeleteTalented and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love your montages and collages. So good.

"Play with us" ... oh you've picked my favourite evil twins as the background to your beautiful montages ... Anto has a pic of Jack on FB on the eve of **possibly** cutting his hair short;). He says he can send you scans of promo postcards of Vespas etc from the 50s and 60s featuring very stylised, beautiful ladies on them:). I adore the jacket and how it gave you the inspiration for this mod post - every single post is a work of art!! xoxoxo
