Chicago's Favorite Fashion Stylist
Love this new mag from Jason Binn + Gilt, DuJour. Many thanks for the feature, Anna.
Lolla Style
We took 2,000 photos at Lolla this year. Here, our favorite style snaps:
The cuteness of Tennis' Alaina -- she's from the school of American Apparel. Dov, you must be delighted.
Taylor Momsen was lots of fun, scowl and all. She "did NOT get fired" from GG, y'all.
From her archive of vintage Heatherette, rockin' blue is the manager of the Drums. Wish we had re-styled her band ...
Lolla love, Chicago-style, via a molecular biologist and her band beau.
Tall drink in Forever21, head-to-toe. This is not something we condone but here, bien sur, mais ouis.
Nathalie is an aspiring actress from LA: excellent look on her.
We liked him and his Jay style.
The reigning mamacita of Grouplove, Hannah Hooper, and her four boys:
the fantastic brooder, Mr. Sean Gadd ...
the awesomerocket of schlub, Ryan Rabin ...
the cold quiet dreaminess of Mr.Christian Zucconi ...
... and ...
Now, for the up close and personal portion of this post:

Heart Thumping Vavoom Pinup Posing
Chicago Magazine contacted us to host a party and pose for a set of pinup shots with Chicago's pinup poster girl, Heather Stumpf of Vavoom Pinups.
We have worked with a lot of photographers and we have to say Heather is a dynamo! We arrived, were transformed by her team of talented hair and makeup people and jumped into the set! But first we had the pleasure of picking out our wardrobe from her racks of clothing and shelves upon shelves of pinup girl props!
... and when we say Heather is an ace photographer, each of these was gotten from only one or two clicks of her camera before we moved on to a new prop or outfit. Efficiency on a photoshoot? Viva la Vavoom!
We highly recommend your booking some time to get your own Vavoom shots done: who doesn't want shots like these to be saved for posterity?
