White Tiger Mighty Liger
What have I done. I bought these insane white tiger/zebra boots on a depressive whim. Not sure what I think about them other than they would be great house shoes. They are so comfortable and soft, they could easily replace slippers. A little over the top? Hmmm...never.

Spin a Web
Sandra Bucklund for Italian knitwear producer, Maglificio Miles is getting mad press, with total praise worthy peices. No Doubt. Rightfully so, these knit pieces are mind jarringly complex and the structure is just sick. I love the sculpture aspects and texture. I'm especially into folds and tire tread patterns. And the shoulders!


I'm mad for this macrame/knit dress. With some curves and a nude full body suit, sick sick.

Keeping Busy to Stave My Mind
Keeping busy with projects today.
1. Continuing saga of the plain white t-shirt.

I sewed it to make it long and skinny, then dyed it with Black Rit dye. Most like Obesity and Speed's black shredded T:

2. New project: imitating the look of Margiela's sagging/folded leather boot with spats. I found the boots on the right at the Goodwill bins ($1). They are comfortable but I really don't like the aesthetic of narrow ankles.

I'm building ruffled leather spats to fasten on top of them. Here's the process in action, using a favorite (toxic!) product: Shoe Goo with a close second: clothes pins.

Using scraps of leather from roomie Sadie's leather skirt and a damaged leather coat.
Get back to you on the end result.

How's This for a Piece of Fried Gold?
Black+gold= yes please.

Dolce and Gabbana's Fall 09/Winter 10 makes me want to weep into my surrealistic pillow. All the B/W, gold and hot pink animal print AND polka dots (!) makes me swoon. Blanche Deveraux-Golden Girls butterfly shoulders and bows for miles. Campy, over the top and perfect. Exactly up my alley. I hope my 2010 will have some of this action:


And my favorite part? CLOSED TOED SHOES. I realized now that I am thirsty for closed toes these days.

Oh, No You Didn't
Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton, Fall 2009---no you did not. Bunny ears? I'm channeling some serious bunny ears today.
