From the blogger himself,  Adam Katz Sinding:

I started in October, 2007.  I did it because I wanted to connect with people who I felt to be of like mind. When I would see people with some essence of individual style I would want to know more about them.  The camera was a pretty good way to strike up a conversation. My inspiration is constantly changing.

  

As Coco Chanel once said...
"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only, Fashion is in the sky, in the street, Fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." 

As an international group, We continue to explore and share the diversity and uniqueness of individual styles around the world. 

So today we introduce you to our Wstyle Inspiration by:

Her passion for fashion was inspired by the fashion groups that she worked for in University of St. Andrews( yes, yes, the one where Prince William met Kate).

inspired by her mother.

The beginning of her passion for make up...

Walker in Wonderland   by Grace Cain 

The world as seen through the lens of British fashion photographer, Tim Walker, is a romantic, enchanting place of fairy-tale characters, pastel coloured cats, and the English countryside. For over a decade, he has transformed the pages of Vogue into a cinema screen for his dream like visions, which prove that fashion photography really is, as the famous American photographer Irving Penn once said, about “selling dreams, not clothes.”
