"Fashion is the armour with which to survive the reality of everday life. Doing away with it would be like doing away with civilisation."

One of my very favourite things to do is forgo dinner for a big bowl of cereal and sit and watch the trailer section of the Apple website. Wow, that sounds alot sadder written down. Anyway, there are some benefits that emerge from such anti-social weekend evenings - case in point, the trailer for Bill Cunningham New York, below...

Cunningham, 80+ New York Times photographer and doyen of street style snapping, paved the way for superbloggers such as The Sartorialist and Jak & Jil. The documentary, as well as exploring Cunningham's endearing eccentricities and quasi-religious dedication to his work, also displays the importance of documenting street style as a more accurate cultural barometer than the catwalk could ever be. If you're fascinated by the cult of street style photography, this is a must-see! I'm keeping my fingers crossed it comes to London!
