Style Profile...Jenny Bergqvist, London
Jenny works as a photographer for Styleclicker. I got to know her last year in August. While I was in London I thought it would be a great chance to do another Style Profile.
Describe your personal style…
I like contrasts...mixing masculine with feminine clothes, patterns and colors that don't really go together, styles from different eras like a 1920s dress with 90s grungy boots. I like it when I look androgynous, quirky and a bit unfinished.
Source of inspiration?
The streets of London are definitively all the inspiration a girl would ever need. But besides from that I watch films a LOT and can get deeply inspired by a character, a place or an era portrayed in a film. I'm a more emotional than visual person, so I just love when style and personality can mesh.
Style icons?
So... since films are a huge source of inspiration for me, character from films naturally become icons for me. So Kristin Scott Thomas in “Gosford Park”, Claire Danes in the TV-series “My So-called Life”, Eva Green in “Cracks” and Jean Seberg in “Breathless” are a few examples.
Any fashion rules?
To me, fashion is meant to be fun. I don't take it too seriously, and just hate those "how and when to wear what" kind of rules. Who cares?
I only have one personal rule, and that's to stay away from animal products since I’m a vegan. So no silk, wool, leather or fur in my wardrobe.
Most underrated item in womenswear?
Menswear. That's not just one item though...
Favorite photographers?
Of course my Styleclicker colleague Gunnar Hämmerle.
Favorite stores in London?
I buy mostly vintage clothes so I go to the markets or the small vintage shops in Soho for original and cheap finds.
Favorite place in London?
There's too many...
Favorite café in your neighbourhood?
Notes, Music & Coffee (31 St Martin's Lane, City of London WC2N 4)
Thoughts about style and fashion in London…
I've never been anywhere where people are so free and open-minded as in London. There really is a fuck it, anything goes attitude here that is SO liberating. I'm never moving!

Buxton Street...Marie, London
Actually I hate smoking. But honestly I think french girls can seduce every man just the way they smoke a cigarette.

Style Profile...Tommaso, London
While I am travelling I ask the coolest people I know to do a Style Profile. The first time I met Tommaso in Frankfurt. He is actually from New York City but now he lives in London. Therefore I took the oppurtunity to shoot him again and asked some questions. Here we go.
Describe your personal style…
I love all sorts of styles so I try to explore and have fun with mixing designer with vintage and used clothes. I guess I'd call my look 'street chic' ?
Source of inspiration?
Educating and looking into whats next is a good way to self inspire. My friends are pretty inspiring people as well.
Style icons?
Carmen dell' Orefice, Giovnna Battagila, Daphne Guinness, Anna Della Russo, Iris Apfel
Any fashion rules?
One must always wear confidence.
Most underrated item in menswear?
Pocket squares
Favorite stores in London?
- Twins Diverse
- I love a good market/charity shop
Favorite place in London?
Anywhere when its sunny (rare)
Favorite place to have a night out?
Favorite café in your neighbourhood?
This amazing little cafe turned delicatessen called Gastronomica around the corner from my flat. Best cappuccino ever!
Thoughts about style and fashion in London…
To me I feel like London's style is the home of Grunge mixed with a historic 17th century royal feel that somehow all seems to hold hands well.

The Backpack...Stockholm
Nothing new, but for me this photo describes what I saw on the streets of Stockholm...a lot of vintage leather backpacks.
