For those who are unable to access print copies of magazines (which is hugely preferable), the evolution of the interwebs has proved a great advantage, especially in terms of viewing editorials from ridiculously overpriced international magazines. I noticed that a large portion of the shoots from the most recently released Oyster Magazine, being the celebratory 100th issue, have been published and can quite easily be hunted down online. Being one of my favoured publications and the source of most of my suffering (on account of the disgustingly awesome models, styling, interviews and photography featured) I've composed this post entirely consisting of images from issue #100. The parts I find to be the most exciting include Ollie's bare/albino body, the spiderweb printed swimsuits in the photo essay, Maria Palm's stoner face and the Sashimi-Leg combination, and of course, the water cooler being used as a prop in the final high fashion 80s themed shoot.

Spectacular

I realise the above pictures which include a model clutching a goldfish, magazine covers which consist of photographs of models covering parts of their faces with random objects, the photos of a weekend with Anja Konstantinova and manipulated images of a naked boy can hardly be considered even remotely relevant to fashion or style. However this collection of images is sick and can serve as a major source of inspiration for the way in which one dresses.

I have an endless list of excuses for my recent lack of consistent blogging, but I won't bore anyone with the details. I've been extremely busy lately, but managed to come across the above wondrous selection of images. I believe I saw a new choker in the most recent Maniamania collection modelled by the semi nude Dree Hemingway (though it appears the body paint is supposed to serve as a sufficient substitute for clothing), which I'm sure I'll obsess over for the coming days. After viewing the editorial featuring Charlotte Free, I felt certain it must be from and unreleased issue of oyster, as it features the wild clothing of recent collections by Emma Mulholland and Jeremy Scott and photography which could easily be mistaken for the work of Imogene Barron. It was therefore suprising to discover this sickeningly cool editorial was published in Japanese publication, Elle Girl. I fully intend to investigate further, and possibly come across other shoots which just maybe will come close to being on the same level of "street junkie" awesome. It's hardly necessary to comment on the typically flawless collection of Stolen Girlfriends Club, but just in case any of my readers are partial to disgustingly beautiful boys, it needs to be pointed out, how uncanny the resemblance of the model in the last image is to Ezra Miller.
