GAULTIER HERMES SHADOW BIRKIN!!! I would seriously reconsider buying a car if i could have this bag... ($11,000) that and if i had the patience to wait through the next ice age that will be the waiting list.

lolz peen joke. anywho!

EVERNOTE! every iNerd needs it. it syncs all your TOTES IMPORTANT musings, ruminations, ramblings, and erudite to-dos (like TO DO! BONDAGE SWEATER NEED! LOAFERS! PURGE DUST AND CLUTTER!)with your computer and desktop; no docking required only air wavveezz. and also has voice recognition so as you are speeding past a statie you can remind yourself to pay your ticket with a money order so your sig-other doesnt see you got caught. again.

so much cake its like its ma birfday

birthdays, romantic holidays, heated arguments, and all other times requiring consoling by material goods are ideal for patron saint coin pendants. st. sartre. st. jack. st. grandmaster flash. protect your neck and remind yourself that causing fights to solely to get jewelry is tacky. instead be on your best behaviour and hope someone gives you this epic iosselliani ring one day. one ring being a blue eye-d serpent eating its own tail, a symbol of infinity and the other a delicate sapphire

kitsune noir posted about a game that won the Best Game at the Independent Games Festival and earned a $20,000 prize. I want this game for my DS so bad. Read about it, watch it, its calming and inspiring.

ch-ch-charley harper

charley harper kicked the bucket (awhile ago), which is incredibly sad as he was a wonderful illustration artist. flat, simplistic renderings of animal life with textural twists and sometimes devious layout at most other times they are just serene and inviting. todd oldham is putting out a compilation book of all of harper's illustrations and i need it.

pied piper of ice y'all

i need to work on my general sorcery abilities because if i could gain some sort of magnetic pull for these little babies i would be-more-jeweled than all of the cash money millionaires. jeah girl, MJ mice ice is nice.

5th ave shoe repair: marry me

Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair is a swedish design company that makes me really consider paying the exorbitant prices to get it for my very own. The clothes are made from the softest fibers and are all hand crafted with couture techniques with attention to drape and form. the kinds of tee shirts and sweaters that really do send the message that someone really loved making that garment and didnt make it to fill a style quota. each piece is wholly personal and smart. the kinds of garments that you really have to assess if you are mentally ready to wear. please note this origami draped tee (yes its from bird. we only have two left. )

fall 07 notes: part 5

click image to enlarge

Fall is the most expensive season both to produce and purchase. You, or atleast I, neeeeed a new bag, and some boots, and some sturdy heels, and a new scarf or two, and a belt for your coat, and and and... you get the picture. This fall there will be no shortage in sculptural heels, graphic frame bags, sculptural heels, art deco references, cat eyeliner, and quirky texture mixing. I may be sitting infront of the air conditioner with a fan also blowing on me as I type this, but thick tights, cashmere gloves, and boots are prancing around my head like sugarplums on Christmas eve.

fall 07 notes: part 1

Good news fall 07: dresses still (and always will) rule. I am not one for anything frilly, ruffly, sugary, or overtly femme, but I cannot escape the need to own atleast 60 dresses. Over all very few of the shows were super twee and the restrained vibe coupled with intellegent pleating, PVC leggings, or untrustworthy shoes/makeup are all things I subscribe to. Things to look out for: neckline interest; re-routed volume; cocoon shapes; selective embellishment.
