blue, blue, electric blue



'... that's the colour of my room, where I will live..' I love that Bowie song, and have been singing it in my head, ever since I took this shot of my friend Claire's blue wedge espadrille sandals, which she got 'somewhere in Fulham, in a little shop.' It's a colour that's been popping up all over town (and in the Hamptons, so presumably elsewhere, too). It's like what I used to call 'Greek blue' but then it hit me: it's 80s, glam rock, 'electric blue!' And it's such a great little accent colour: on Ray Bans, in patterns.. it makes a nice transition accent colour into fall. Below a sneak preview of a post I'm quite happy about: another brilliant group of style icons.




On the off chance that anyone actually clicks on my youtube links (I must ask my blog friends: how do you imbed them as boxes??) here is Moby requesting the song, on 'live by request', it's quite cute, and here's Bowie performing Sound & Vision. Play at your own risk: I can't get it out of my head!
