When Sarah from The Licentiate asked for contributors to do guest posts on her blog last week, I gladly volunteered my services. I have been a longtime fan of The Licentiate – “a style in culture blog” as the strapline says – and Sarah’s postings on books, fashion and film are always intelligent and interesting, much like the lady herself! I recently caught up with Sarah at the Dublin Festival of Fashion when we both spoke on the Blogger’s Panel and I loved her insights into blogging and her droll sense of humour.
Sarah’s brief was “pick a book, magazine, film or photographic series that you admire or that inspires you in terms of fashion and style.” I chose to write about a particular British Vogue issue from way back in 1992. My post was featured last Saturday and you can read it here.
Thanks for being my guest Alex, much appreciated. And thank you for describing me as droll (love that word)!
