INFATUATE: Poolside with Slim Aarons

I found this amazing book in the inspiration library at my office. The pictures were incredible and captured such a unique style. Most were taken in the mid to late 70's in coastal Mexico, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. This book made me want to go back in time, and then go on vacation when I got there.

The photographer, Slim Aarons (1916-2006), is regarded as one of the most influential magazine photographers of his generation. Since the 1950's, his photographs have appeared in countless magazines, including, Holiday, Town & Country, Life, Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, and Travel & Leisure.

Poolside...enjoy!

We used to have this in my office in London. Seriously amazing pics, and some with topless ladies which is nice...

You get house envy just leafing thru. Wish I was back in Europe sometimes!
