This is the blog that celebrates the fact that if you’re good at playing instruments then people throw clothes at you in the hope that you’ll wear them in NME, and Topshop will buy the collection after seeing it. But we got bored of that, so now we photograph (slightly) realer people. Polish immigrant Lena Mascara’s club singing got the attention of millionaire photographer David Sims who shot her for high-end fashion mag W, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t have to work behind a bar, pulling pints even though she’s an actress too. It’s almost like singing and acting aren’t reliable career choices.
