maya villiger: behind the scenes of turned out

Maya Villiger, ever the modest blogger turns the focus of her lens away from her herself and onto others as a street style photographer. But given her impeccable eye and tendency to wax lyrical about the joys of denim on denim (think in the vein of sturdy Menswear, not Alexander Wang) I've always suspected there was something a bit special about her own style. Luckily for us, Tommy Tom of Jak and Jil has done the groundwork for us and found out by choosing her for his latest 'Favourite Things' feature. The answer is a confident Yes, for Maya of Turnedout.tv has a grown up style as lovely and clean cut as the collages she carefully creates for her blog. In my eyes, she's a bit of a female counterpart to that Male style aesthetic I've talked about in the past; an appreciation for good quality items, well cut and simple. Converse and leather shoes replace desert boots, and a short bob and tweed blazer sustain the essence of that boyish look channelled by Annie Hall and loved by all (including Maya, naturally.)
