Summer Lovin





There is nothing like the start of summer. Despite our frequent and sporadic down pours however I have still gotten into the summer mood and am loving Proenza Schouler flouro technicolour surfer chic. Pardon moi you say? Russh recently coined the term Tropical grunge. Gals, you hit the nail right on the head...as usual.  RESPECT.


You are a female Bodhi from Point Break. Sexy surfer bad ass!
Anywho, let's get down to it. What you need is; sexy unkempt hair, candy pink or acid coral lips, black eyeliner and in my opinion a too sexy for words men's fragrance. I personally like the latest David Beckham cologne but one man;s scent is another man's windex so you decide.

Fashion wise its simple: baggy singlets cut low under the arm to reveal bright coloured bras. Denim short shorts (Note: make its short short shorts) and old school converse with no socks. If you wear socks your friends will call you Milhouse behind your back. Not cool.
Work a Hawaiian vibe in too if possible. No, not a franjipani in your hair you dork, a shirt! Or an old tourist singlet. Keep it cool, I have been wearing a Fijian bitter singlet. It does the trick. 


Keep your swimwear sporty. Lisa Marie Fernandez is superbo.  Sunglasses should be round a slightly retro. Anon make awesome John Lennon round shades or even the Karen Walker range this summer is hot too. 




Enjoy an epic side part amped up at night with some serious hair spray. 


If your cold wear a hoodie underneath a denim jacket. I'm also really into denim sleeveless biker vests. Keep all denim faded and as pale as possible. 

Surfs up kids get into it!
 
Ps i wrote actually wrote this at the beginning of summer but it got lost in translation. There's still plenty of warm weather left to get involved though. Go!
