RHINESTONE COWBOY'S ARE OUT! SPACE COWBOY'S ARE IN. (JOT THAT ONE DOWN!) IN SPIRIT OF THIS HERE I AM WEARING MY NEW FAVORITE SUPER GALACTIC SUIT BY JOSH GOOT. IT'S TOTALLY OUT OF THIS WORLD BUT RIGHT UP MY ALLEY. I MEAN I'VE NEVER MET A SUIT I DIDN'T LIKE, ESPECIALLY ONES MADE OF SILK WITH AN INCREDIBLE PRINT TO BOOT. ONE OF A MILLION REASONS WHY MR. GOOT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE DESIGNERS IN THE UNIVERSE.
NO, NO. THIS ISN'T A PREVIEW OF MY WEDDING DRESS OR MY TAKE ON MADONNA'S WHITE TRASH WEDDING FIASCO. (A LOOK I TOTALLY THINK BILLY IDOL OWNED ALOT HARDER) IT'S MY NEW FAVORITE SUMMER DRESS I FOUND TODAY AT MY NUMERO UNO PLACE TO SHOP ALL THINGS VINTAGE. FIVE MINUTES, SEVENTY DOLLARS AND ONE PAIR OF SCISSORS LATER AND I WAS CONVINCED IT WAS LOOKING A LOT LESS BRIDAL AND A LOT MORE READY TO WEAR. THAT IS UNTIL I FOUND MYSELF STARING INQUISITIVELY AT MY SCORNED LACE AND DECIDED TO TRY IT ON AS A VEIL. (ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS YOU REALLY HOPE NO ONE POPS OVER UNEXPECTANTLY TO CATCH YOU STARING AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR WEARING A WEDDING DRESS WITH NO IMMEDIATE PLANS OF WEDLOCK... BECAUSE YOU LOOK CRAZY) AFTER LAUGHING AT MYSELF FOR BEING SUCH A WEIRDO I TOOK IT OFF AND THEN HAD ANOTHER LOOK WHICH IS WHEN I REALIZED I REALLY WAS CRAZY WHEN I STARTED TO THINK IT REALLY DIDN'T LOOK AS GOOD SANS VEIL. I FIGURED I COULD PASS IT OFF AS "EDITORIAL DRESSING" AS LONG AS I PROMISE TO LEAVE THE PARTY HAT AT HOME NEXT TIME TO AVOID LOOKING LIKE I'VE COMPLETELY LOST MY MARBLES.
NOW IS IT JUST ME OR DID EVERYONE WANT TO BE MAX WHEN THEY GREW UP? THAT KID WAS COOL AS SHIT. I MEAN HE WORE A FUR JUMPSUIT AND AND THREW GREAT PARTIES AND IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY HAD A BOAT LICENSE. SWOON! I THINK IT'S THE REASON I LOVE ALL OF THE ABOVE AND HAVE A THING FOR BOYS WITH BEARDS. HERE I AM IN C.PARK THROWING A LITTLE RUMPUS OF MY OWN WEARING A JUMPER I PULLED APART (DIY SOON, PROMISE) AND A PARTY HAT.
THE CRAZY HORSE PARIS. MY FAVORITE SHOW IN EVERYBODY'S FAVORITE CITY. WHERE THE GIRLS ARE TOPLESS, THE MEN TAP DANCE AND YOU LEAVE WITH AN ITCH FOR ALL THINGS SHOWGIRL (NOT THE DEMI MORE KIND) AND FEELING A LITTLE BITTER THAT YOUR JOB DOESNT REQUIRE BODY GLITTER AND AGENT PROVOCATEUR. ANYWAY WHAT I'M GETTING AT IS MY NEW FAVORITE JEWELS FROM NEW ZEALAND GIRLS D_LUXE. THE CRAZY HORSE SIGNAT RING AND HORSESHOE NECKLACE ARE MY NEW GHETTO GOLD STAPLES. HERE THEY ARE JOINING IN ON A LITTLE COLOUR BLOCKING WITH ELLERY SILK BLAZER, RVCA TEE AND A PIECE OF LINING I FOUND THAT IS WORKING OVERTIME AS A SKIRT.
DIGITAL MAGAZINES. BLOGS N' BLACKBERRY'S. LONG GONE ARE THE DAYS OF LETTERS, REFER DEXES AND ASKING YOUR BEST FRIENDS FOR THEIR HOME NUMBERS. NOW IT'S ALL EMAILS, E-VITES, FRIEND REQUESTS, PIN REQUESTS AND INSTEAD OF YOUR BEST FRIENDS LANDLINE YOU'VE ENDED UP WITH THIER FACEBOOK PASSWORD. IT SEEMS THE WHOLE WORLDS GONE ONLINE AND I'M QUICKLY REALIZING YOUR EITHER ALL IN OR OUT OF TOUCH. I RELY SO HEAVILY ON MY BLACKBERRY THAT THE DAY THE WHEEL BROKE MY ENTIRE WORLD AS I KNEW IT FELL APART. I COULDN'T EMAIL ON THE GO, I COULDN'T INSTANT MESSAGE MY MUM AND DAD, I COULDN'T USE TAX PAYERS MONEY TO LOCATE MYSELF VIA SATELLITE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD VIA BLACKBERRY GPS GOOGLE MAPS. I COULDN'T CHECK MY FACEBOOK IN TRANSIT AND I COULDN'T PLAY SOLITAIRE TWENTY TIMES A DAY. I COULDN'T EVEN GET THE WEATHER. WHICH MADE ME THINK THAT I TOO WAS A SLAVE TO ALL THINGS TECHNO, ALAS MY DAD'S BEEN TELLING ME LATELY (VIA INSTANT MESSENGER, HOLD THE EMOTIONS) THAT I AM NOT ACCESSIBLE ENOUGH. THIS KIND OF SURPRISED ME AS I THOUGHT THAT HAVING A BLOG ENTIRELY DEDICATED TO POSTING ONE'S THOUGHTS AND CROTCH SHOTS WAS FAIRLY "IN TOUCH". HE THEN SUGGESTED TWITTER. ("SAD FACE") ACTUALLY THAT I "JOINED HIM" ON TWITTER. ("REALLY SAD FACE") BY THIS POINT I WAS REALLY FEELING OUT OF TOUCH, UNCOOL AND EVEN THE FLASHING LIGHT ON MY BLACKBERRY SUDDENLY DIDN'T FEEL SO TECHNO SAVVY. EVEN THOUGH I REALLY DO BELIEVE TWITTER IS FOR OVER THIRTIES AND I REALLY DON'T WANT TO LET PEOPLE KNOW WHAT I ATE FOR BREAKFAST AND WHAT I'M GOING TO DO IN FIVE MINUTES- I DO WANT TO BE MORE "ACCESSIBLE" FOR Y'ALL SO I'M GOING TO PUT UP AN EMAIL ADDRESS SO YOU GUYS CAN GET TYPE HAPPY. IN THE MEAN TIME HERE'S AN INTERVIEW I DID FOR NEW E-MAG, GLOSSY. THE FIRST ONLINE MAGAZINE I'VE EVER READ OR FALLEN IN LOVE WITH. THE ONLY THING I HATE IS I CAN'T COLLECT THEM AND LEAVE THEM IN PILES AROUND THE HOUSE.
PANTS… WHO NEEDS EM! SUMMER’S COME A KNOCKIN’ AND TO CELEBRATE THE MERCURY RISING I’VE GONE FOR THE OLD CROCHET KNICKERBOCKERS, (READ: KNICKERBOCKERS AS A POLITE SYNONYM FOR TINY, TINY PANTS) I THINK THE KEY TO MICROBOCKS IS GETTING TOP HEAVY. SO WEAR YOUR HAT, WEAR YOUR JEWELS, WEAR SOME SLEEVES. WE’RE GOING STREAKING! WELL MY LEGS ARE ANYWAY.
TAKE ME BACK TO THE DAYS OF BIANCA JAGGER AND POOL SIDE PARTIES, I'M ALL ABOUT THE SEVENTIES RIGHT NOW. IN SPIRIT OF THIS- HERE'S A LITTLE PAIR OF GUCCI HOMME PANTS I PICKED UP... COULD THEY BE ANYMORE FANTASTIC? THEY'RE SO INCREDIBLY DOPE THAT AT FIRST GLANCE THEY CAN BE TOTALLY MISTAKEN FOR DOWN RIGHT OFFENSIVE. THEY SCREAM CHEESY, BUT VINTAGE CHEESE IS IN RIGHT? WHO CARES! I'M BUYING INTO IT. I'M GROOVY LIKE THAT. THEY GO PERFECTLY WITH MY EQUALLY RETARDED EMMA COOK BURGUNDY PONY SKINS AND A WHAT DOESN'T GO WELL WITH A FOX (CUE FLYING BUCKET OF BLOOD) MATCHY MATCHY'S NEVER LOOKED SO FLY.
HERE I AM THROWING SOME FAUX-GROOVINESS YOUR WAY WITH A LITTLE WASHED SILK AND FUR. IT DON'T MATTER IF YOU'RE COMING IN OR COMING OUT- IT'S TRANS SEASONAL TIME YO! WHICH MEANS IT'S WARM ENOUGH TO SHOW A LITTLE AND WINDY ENOUGH TO DUST OFF YOUR FURS (OR LET YOUR HAIR WHIP IT- ALTHOUGH IF YOU'RE GONNA DO THAT I SUGGEST SHOULDER LENGTH HAIR AS MINE ALMOST BLEW MY DAMN CORNEAS IN THE PROCESS) IT'S A LAYER FRIENDLY TIME AND THIS IS MY FAVORITE WAY TO GET TO IT. JUMP IN. GROOVE OUT. SUMMER/WINTERS COMING.
HERE ARE SOME PHOTOS I DID FOR VOGUE GIRL KOREA'S D.I.Y OR DIE FEATURE. IT'S ALL ABOUT THEM PVC 'WIPE ME DOWN' PANTS- AS SOON AS HYEMIN OVER AT VGK HQ SENDS ME A COPY I'LL REPOST THE STEPS AND INTERVIEW IN ENGLISH FOR ALL YOU SINGLE LANGUAGE SPEAKERS, AND KOREAN FOR MY BI-LINGUAL FOLK.
BY NOW, IF YOU'VE REACHED THIS POINT AND YOU'RE STILL READING YOU'RE MOST PROBABLY WONDERING WHAT ON EARTH IS PLAYING (IF NOT TURN YO' SOUND ON FOOL) AS IT BRINGS ME TO MY NEXT POINT. MY NUMERO UNO . MY NEW PUPPY "SHAGGY MMM" YES YOU'RE RIGHT. WE REALLY DID NAME HER AFTER THE GREAT EARLY 2000'S RAPPER SHAGGY, YOU MAY HAVE HEARD A FEW OF HIS GROUD BREAKING SONGS? MR. BOMBASTIC? IT WASNT ME? ANGEL? WHAT WE WANTED WAS A FANTASTIC, BOMBASTIC, RO-MANTIC AND WE GOT HER. THE BEST BIT IS WATCHING EVERYBODY CALL HER "SHAGGY MMM" IN THAT OH SO STUPID JAMAICAN ACCENT THEN NOT BE ABLE TO SHAKE IT, OR WATCHING HER DO SOMETHING NAUGHTY AND THEN SAYING "IT WASN'T ME".
NOW YOU'LL HAVE TO EXCUSE ME FOR THE LATE POSTING AND CROTCH SHOTS BUT THE JACKET GOT THE BETTER OF ME, PARDON! THESE ARE THE LEAVES OUTSIDE MY FRONT DOOR THEY ARE UBER DEVINE AND THE JACKET IS ONE OF FOUR IN THE WORLD BY ELLERY (IF YOU ASK HER OVER AT ELLERYLAND I'M SURE YOU COULD BE THE FIFTH!) I BOUGHT IT BEFORE I LEFT FOR EUROPE AND HAVE BEEN ADMIRING IT FROM A PLASTIC GARMENT BAG EVER SINCE TOTALLY AWARE OF THE FACT THAT THIS BAD BOY AIN'T WEATHER PROOF. IT'S MORE OF A SUNSHINE KINDA THING. IT GOES WITH ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING BUT I KINDA PREFER IT ON IT'S OWN. CUE BLACK UNDIES AND MY OL' FAITHFUL BOOTS- I PROMISE NEXT TIME I UNWRAP THE THING I'LL WEAR SOMETHING UNDERNEATH!
OH AND P.S
IF YOU'RE WONDERING WHY I LOOK A LITTLE NORWEIGIEN TODAY IT'S BECAUSE I'VE COMBED CONCEALER THROUGH MY EYEBROWS, THIS IS NOT SOMETHING I DO ON MY DAY'S OFF I PROMISE. TOTALLY DRAG QUEEN OF ME BUT I'VE BEEN OBSESSED WITH LARA STONE'S PAIR (PAIR'S, COUGH COUGH!) FOR TOO LONG NOT TO AT LEAST GET MAYBELLINE ON THE SHIT.
NOTHING SAYS WELCOME TO PARIS LIKE A LE STRIPE AND A PAIR OF LEATHERS, THESE ARE MY LATEST DIY'S. HERE I AM BEING ANIMAL FRIENDLY IN 100% PURE PVC, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, DISCO SHIT! I LOVE THEM BUT THEY ARE NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED. THEY ARE QUITE POSSIBLY THE HOTTEST PANTS ON THIS EARTH, TEMPERATURE WISE... MY LEGS ARE ON FIRE. OFF TO THE RUE SAINT HONARE.
I'VE FOUND MY NEW FAVORITE BOOT MAKER. HE'S ALL SNAKES AND COWBOYS AND IS KNOWN ONLY AS MR. DEEP. I TOLD HIM WHAT I WANTED AND HE WHIPPED EM UP IN THREE DAYS. HE MAKE'S A GREAT PAIR O' BOOTS. THEY'RE SORTA LIKE FRYE'S BUT WAY COOLER AND THEY'RE MADE OUT OF PYTHON SKIN (EAT YOUR HEART OUT CUSTOMS) I THINK I JUST LIKE OWNING THE ONLY PAIR OF THESE BAD BOYS EVER MADE. OFF TOO FRANCE NOW. P.S HOW GREAT IS THIS WINDOW?
