Thirteen little scared teeth

I have been lusting over pieces from the SixSixSick (such a rad name) girl's jewellry line Triskaidekaphobia (such an even radder name!) for months now, so I was super happy to see that its now available online HERE and HERE. The piece above, the Saw teeth and Human teeth double necklace is what I really really want, so I think its time to start saving, although with such a reasonable price range I dont think it will take much saving. wicked! I also love this:

Floral Plans

Hey woops, sorry for that last post I guess it was kind of a bit agressive. But you know I do like to swear, and you know I was proper pissed and upset about the tickets selling out soooooo... yknow deal with it.

Anywayanywayanyway, its time for a complete change of tempo. I was just looking through my fantastic book Modern Menswear that I got from the Borders sale (:( ) and it got me to thinking again about that shirt I just bought. Yknow I really do love it and plan on wearing it lots and lots, so it was nice to get some inspiration for a few outfit ideas. The above image is Blaak S/S 07 and I just love the dreamy quality of the images as well as the shirts. Androgony is totally my bag, and I think with something like my shirt its great to play up to that. I especially love the idea, as I said before, about pairing that with something hard and dangerous like my spikey bike bag and big black shiney boots.

This next image is of course wonderful Dries Van Noten, from A/W 07/08. I just utterly LOVE the sheerness of the deconstructed sweater over the pattern of the collared shirt. This is definately something I would like to try to make if I find some nice fabric. the huge neck is also wonderful, as I love to play with proportions (usually baggy on top, skinny down below, yagetme?).

This last image is Paul Smith S/S 07 and of course you know I love it for that amazing necklace. I really believe that amazing accessories can make an outfit even better, and statement necklaces are what Im all about. I really really really really would love love love love to own this piece.

Arielle de Pinto - make me a Monster

Hey Mofos. OK yes I am back but I am half way through this bastard essay (1000 words left ugh) so I do deserve a break. And also do you know how annoying it is trying to write an essay with no backspace key, no left key and a green line permenantly down your screen? it is very annoying.

SO do you remember that mask I knitted a while ago? Well I was just perusing the interwebs, when I came across (via AnOther Loves) the wonderful work of jewellry designer Arielle de Pinto. WOW! She has created this completely amazing hand made technique working with metal, where I guess she sort of knits it? or like crochet? I literally have no idea, but it is so beautiful. Sort of like when you go into antique shops, like the sort of ones that just have rooms and rooms of assorted junk, and like in the corner you find this one beautiful musty dusty creation and its just lovely. yeah, thats what its like. The new 2010 collection carries over key styles and looks from the 2009 collection, however with the help of a really stunning look book, it is like the pieces are compleely transformed into something from a weetzie bat dream. Im especially drawn to the monster mask, but I would love any other of the pieces, so gooood.
