Lily and Liya do Salt-n-Pepa

Written by Tania Braukämper.

If there’s one thing weirder than seeing Natasha Poly as Courtney Love, it’s seeing porcelain skinned English rose Lily Donaldson in a shoot inspired by Salt-n-Pepa.

Not that I’m understating the significance of the rap group, who came out with such gems as “Let’s Talk About Sex”, “Whatta Man”, and “Shoop” (and yes, I’ll confess I still have some S’n'P tucked away in my music collection. You know you do too.) But it leaves me wondering: what do all theses 90s references mean to the younger end of today’s fashion crowd?

Some people's wardrobes are about a small selection of pieces that all fit within one aesthetic - Tania Braukamper isn't such a person. With a wardrobe that spans three different rooms, her approach to fashion is a mixture of current-season key pieces mixed with vintage finds she's sourced on innumerous shopping trips around the world's more cultured capitals. Despite a disparate approach to shopping, Tania is adamant that the key to mixing vintage with new season is to stick to key looks and colours that work for oneself. And it's a theory that she works into her writing for Fashionising.com, where she serves as the publication's Editor.
