Joanna Newsom, Style Icon A few years ago, the only Joanna pics you'd see painted her to be a sylvan nymph. Now she's casually popping up on street style blogs, even when they don't realize it's her. Such is the transformative power of a good coat (or of hanging out in NYC a bunch). (via FADER)

They've edited the title now to pretend they knew all along, or something. There's another fashion blog somewhere that last year took a bunch of pictures around London and one of them featured Lightspeed Champion, wearing that floppy hat he always wears, and the owner didn't twig then either.

She looks very tired. And also, she looks ridiculously dressed. Just an opinion... I think she's great and love her music.

Dear God I cannot stand this transformation!!! Such a talent, such a humble and demure image...now she looks like an IT girl or a fashion magazine intern. Is it just me or do other fans feel like this too?

She was always very interested in fashion...her style's just changed (and her budget's expanded). Was she supposed to dress in Gunne Sax and look like she came from a Renaissance fair forever?
At least she's still making music. I'll reserve my judgements for when I hear her album.
