Horror Story

Type faces are heading down a creepy street.

All melting , goo-filled, clawed at and aflame.

Read these tags at your own peril...

Yeeeeha

From the crisp clean lines of the stetson to this quirky

straw Cowboy hat below...I couldn't pull one off but

admire those that can!

Bookshops

Bookshops around the world part two..these images

bring back so many memories.

Especially the ones from Cuba.

Books seem to are an integral part of this city.

Bookshops are every where and they are so beautiful

and full of books with the most amazing graphics on

there well preserved covers.

It is even forbidden to remove antique books through

customs.

So I hope you enjoy a glimpse of them on this blog.

Up ,Up and Away

The man of steel, able to leap tall buildings .. and all that.

No other superheroes emblem is so easily recognised

and sits on the chest of so many street style savvy.

Hero worship...nothing wrong with that.

In The Hood

The hoody is a street style classic if ever

there was one. I love my grey

American Apparel hoody as it goes

with everything. It is my staple when

I want to feel as snug as a bug in the hood

in a hood.

It protects me from a sun shower,warms me

thrown over my gym gear and looks

just right under a black leather jacket.

I bet you have one in your closet.

Buttons

Buttons, buttons, buttons, buttons, buttons

buttons , buttons, buttons and more buttons.

Blondie

Blondie, Marilyn, Madonna, Princess Diana,

Bjorn Borg, Grace Kelly, Agyness Deyn,

Anna Nicole Smith, Britney......

If blondes really do have more fun as the cliche goes,

then the evidence is right here.

Crochet Chic

There is something very comfortingly crafty going on

with fashion at the moment. I don't know if some one's

Grandmother is working overtime or if Gen. Y have

discovered the art of crochet.

Any way, it has been hibernating for sometime and now is

back; this time not in the shape of table cloths and

doilies , but bags, vests and dresses.

The look is somewhat herbal chic with a dash of

Fleetwood flavour.

Stevie we love you for inspiring a whole new generation

of modern day gypsies!

The Commute

How do you get to work in the morning?

Pink Hair?

Why have I seen pink hair everywhere

lately?

Admittedly some musk stick shades are

for fancy dress or costume, but others

have pink hair in a totally, no ironic,

I am going to rock pink hair , Harajuku

kind of way.

The thing is, they look so good .

So, Pink..get back those pink locks you

had ,back in the day, (before your

hen- party-rock anthems were born).

Pendants and Chains

There is something going on with.......

chunky chains and pendants.

Homemade, dripping with jewels or..

maybe lo-fi, with a cassette...so retro cool.

There is no in and out when it comes to

jewellery these days.

It has to suit the wearer and hopefully lift

the mood of all who admire it.

My favourite double ended religious icon

chain I bought in Brazil years ago has

just snapped...gone to God...

oh well!

So in it's memory, here are some

admirable neck pieces

Wallpapered...

I previously posted wallpapered on the

26th Oct, well I have decided to make

this a regular post as it was one of my

favourites.

I just love the layers of posters and fliers

peeling off a wall, or the gig guides

creating a funky wall covering.

Just takes me back to my bedroom wall

when I was 16!
