The Sartorialist at Paul Smith


The Sartorialist, Scott Schumann sent me an email the other day. I was silly enough to think he had sent it himself. Unfortunately that did not seem to be true. I met him tonight and spoke to him for a very short while indeed. Anyway here is the proof that I was there........

Stylist

Free newspapers and magazines are now de rigeur. The Metro is one of the most successful newspapers with its captive audiences on trains and buses attracting sufficient advertising revenue to make it viable. Shortlist is a free mag for guys, and now for us girls there is the sparkly new Stylist. We picked up a copy of the second week's edition at Edinburgh airport. It is seriously good - and as the editorial claims it is an inspiring magazine for women who are tired of reading about celebrity foibles or unflattering paparazzi shots. Go get one today! It is full of useful and interesting reading. It is available in London Brighton Leeds Manchester Glasgow and Birmingham, as well as in French Connection.

Mr Cool



We thought his look was rather nice.......

Welcome

Welcome to Streets Ahead - a new blog that celebrates Scottish street style.

London, Paris and New York are famous for their stylish citizens, but what about Scotland? Here at Streets Ahead we believe that our cities are buzzing with hip, classic, innovative and quirky looks that need to be appreciated! So we'll be out and about with our camera showcasing the styles that catch our eye each day.

Bookmark this blog now and keep checking here for regular updates!

Who am I?















This is me and I intend to use this blog as an outlet for some fashion photography. Based in Edinburgh I am a multimedia journalist. I travel from time to time, so don't be surprised to see other kinds of style here apart from Scottish.
