HALCYON DAYS

Charlotte Carey photographed by Stefano Galuzzi for the December 2014 issue of L'officiel Italia.

There's something enticing about a nomadic life. The liberation from conformity and the celebration of a carefree spirit. Much like the halcyon days of the seventies. Freedom, peace and love baby. Woodstock too. It's no surprise that this era in time is my favorite. Not for the fashions but for what a good few souls cherished and believed. I'm overly smitten with this editorial. I feel like were I born in the 1950's and had my twenties to revel in the magic that was that era it would transpire exactly as depicted above. Decadently luxe faux furs, leather, legs and androgynous styles booties. Living out the back of an estate car, switching it up between a motorcycle and guitar. Possible nudity too.

Romanticism at its finest.

  4. The editorial is amazing! I'd love to live a nomadic life where I don't live in the same city twice, travel the world and just enjoy myself. I think that would be incredible <3

  12. I'm in love with editorial, too, and how grand it would be to live in liberation from conformity (and clothes)!

    A side note: It's incredibly odd that I've visited your blog quite a few times and not subscribed?! You write so well!

  31. How interesting you identify with that time. Come to think of it, I've always felt I belonged in the later modern TV interpretations of Agatha Christie's Poirot novels, which were based in the 1960s (heavy injection of art deco etc). Sonia, we need to find a time machine! :)

  32. I can't believe it's an editorial from 2014, looks like it was from the 70's. Gorgeous shots and definitely loving the retroness of it.
