There is a story behind this story. Of course there is.
Yesterday, having infiltrated ASOS HQ, or the Happy Place, as I now call it, I was taken on a tour: they actually have a CATWALK, with models being filmed and still shot all day long. It's insane.
Later, by accident, I found myself shooting an empty dressing room when who should walk in, but Jesus. Changing his shirt. God is he cute. And really, really nice. We chatted a bit and then I started shooting him and he started doing that thing that models do. After that, I honestly don't remember anything, not even his name.* It was a bit scary, actually. I think I realised he's American, but the rest is a blur. I couldn't hear over the beating of my own heart.
*(My lovely new friend, ASOS Nat, who is at the core of the story and who was with me at alleged incident, and somehow was more conscious than I, just told me: it's RANDY. Swear to God.
When I was young and single, I had several 'types', but this wasn't one of them. Friends would see a guy and say 'he's your type': tended towards young Bob Dylan, kinda scrawny, curly hair.. Mr. Dot was kind of my type, but more bad boy than I normally went for (he was more like a young Mick Jagger). I tended to go for a kind of geek chic type, but after yesterday, I'm a convert.
Messiah chic, in black and white. Shirt, jeans, belt: ASOS. Hair and tattoos: model's own. As for the story behind the story, what I was doing in the Happy Place: stay tuned.
What's your type?

And His name? Randy. How very appropriate ;)
NO! That's hilarious. Thank you, Nat, will add this minute - was just walking out the door.
He's ... ah, I'm lost for words here. Yum. That smile of hissss..... Sorry I just swooned.
My type? Ha, Koreans. It goes that far that I can tell you someone is asian just seeing his/her hair a 100 m away. And my far sight (long sight?) is crap!
I think I seriously have to relocate to South Korea.
Can't believe his name was Randy - how apt! Also the expression 'Messiah chic' cracked me up. . . as for i type, i like the pretty pretty boys. Leo Di Caprio for life! ck :) x
Wow he is gorgeous!
Thanks for your sweet comment and the link to the pages, but I would no ideas as how to go about collaborating with anyone, I'ma bit helpless when it comes to that. I just draw as more of a hobby and you're right clothes-wise. I don't know if I have a type, as I've liked guys that have all looked different, but there's something about Johnny Depp as Captain Jack that does it for me :D xxx
Type? Tall, dark and handsome. Everytime.
'Messiah chic' How Genuis!

Well, there is something about this man, but my type is a bit different: I love dark skin, dark eyes and hair, manly arms. And when I say "manly" I don't mean extra big muscles, I just like well shaped arms:)
I wouldn't normally say he was my type either, but he's VERY pretty so I'll make an exception :)
I think my 'type' is a mixture of pretty boy and bad boy (pretty bad boy?) but I never seem to end up with that!
Hmmm, type... Men (not boys, if you know what I mean)! Manly men, preferably wild with dark hair and bright eyes. That said, this guy is gorgeous! I love the 'Messiah chic' term ; )
gorgeous.
my type? dark, stubbly, doesn't mind being mocked.
xx
oh my, he is so gorgeous. you lucky thing, jill! xxx
hot guy- lose the tats
p.s. i briefly mentioned this post on my blog, i hope you don't mind! xxx
Mr Dot should be worried :p
I'm so jealous you got to go to the Asos hq!
Haha, it's so sweet that your heart was beating fast and it went by in a blur when you were photographing him!

my type is a bit bad boy, quick-witted, adventurous, kind (especially to animals), and intelligent. i suppose you could say i married him. :)

some of my friends insist i go for bad boys, others would say 'freaks'. Let's just say I'm more drawn to christian slaters character in Heathers than I should be
