Stefan Campbell Presents: Lindsey Bloom

Welcome to the first installment of STEFAN CAMPBELL PRESENTS wherein PAPER’s go-to fashion stylist Mr. Campbell will regale us with the various people, buildings, artworks, objets that catch his fancy and ultimately inspire him to do great things! Campbell’s first shoot for us was an East Village punk-abilly spread many a year ago, and since then, he’s been styling for us up the wazoo. “He’s been here so long that he’s really part of the family,” Mr. Mickey mused when asked his thoughts on Campbell. Without further ado, here is blog numero uno.

This is Lindsey Bloom, an artist/sculptor/seamstress/Texan, who is new to New York City by one week, after having traveled abroad for some time. I spotted her yesterday at 12:40 p.m. on the L train on my way -- already late -- to meet Michael Hirschorn of VH1 for lunch at the legendary diner Café Edison in Times Square. I liked her Biker Babe Nerdy Girl look with her Rosemary’s Baby cropped hair-cut and mom-colored almost skinny jeans. The geek chic glasses were linked with a beaded eyeglass chain, perfect for any great grand-mama. Please note the mace spray as fashion accessory/protective device. I love bad girl nerds! I missed my stop at Union Square because I was chatting with her: “Fashion is a passion of mine,” she told me.
