Pin Up

I adore this editorial in the current issue of Lula.  It is styled by Aya Kanai, and has a great 1950's pin up feel.  The vintage aesthetic is lady-like and rocker at the same time, which I love.  I am also enamoured with the rockabilly hair, red lips and just the photo treatment in general.  I also found some amazing items on the market from low end to high end that complete this look...
