It's simple; monochrome; set against a nothing more than a plain white backdrop... and yet My Cowgirl Hero - which appears in Vogue Nippon, July 2009 - is on track to be one of my favourite shoots for the year.
Why? The uber-cool Freja Beha Erichsen, and the thigh-high boots trend, rocking it together, cowboy-style.
The Western thigh-high boots with side pull-tabs are a definite winner in our book. Add to that the inclusion of Givenchy's fetish-inspired leather vest (worn by Freja here) and you have me hook, line, and sinker. There's nothing revolutionary about the shoot, I'll concur - but it's simple, strong, and sexy.
