GETTING THINGS DONE

The impossibly dapper and gorgeous Dusk Lord Constantine aka Constantine Latting, an "Androgynous Vampiric Royal".

Ever since I've laid eyes on them, I've been star struck. They exude this old school, movie star-matinee idol; charisma and glamour that I cannot get enough of - the way they dress and style themselves, especially Apo, I find it very distinctive and they stand out - the dapper, tailored silhouette, those rakish, dashing smiles  in some of their photos. They are a whole mood. 

It was THIS SHOT that really sent me down the rabbit hole. So reminiscent of that particular  manliness of the male actors of yore.

The vintage jeans and colour palette of the 1950s

The high waist, tailored pants vibes here - 

So I started ferreting away and welp, here's the result of my fevered imagination and too many dark chocolate cherry liqueurs  😁🤓. I used some photos that had the classic studio-era stars Cary Grant and Randolph Scott, merry bachelors who shared a mansion. Hiding in plain sight worked marvellously.

To kick off, here's Apo sharing the same vibes as Bruce Lee in Way Of The Dragon

Not only the wardrobe, it's the energy of Mile and Apo herethat's so "wow, golly!" 🤣

The handsome, iconic Toshiro Mifune below. One of the first Japanese actors to achieve global stardom.

Marlon Brando was so effortlessly beautiful back in the day.
