speakingofchains

• Chain neclace with black fringe
• Chainmail bag with chains
• I found this amazing vintage black dress with a low cut back drapped in delicate chains on some website but I didn't save it and am kicking myself cause I cant remember where it was!
• In an unrelated matter, there is so much beautiful knitwear out there atm (rodarte, missoni etc) I really want to learn how to knit.

As much as I love Erin, I must say, even she cannot pull of this:

To me looks a bit costum-ey and does anyone else think Christophe Decarnin has used the exact same sillouettes two seasons in a row? What did you guys think of Balmain?

On a side note, the word verifications for blogger.com are very amusing.

funky you say?

waiter: so you would like your ritsuko shirahama to be served "funky", with a side of vegetables?

chip off the old block.

As Helen has told you, we are now on hols! So I went shopping yesterday with some friends, and I got this awesome 4-in-1 nail block from The Body Shop. It has four numbered sides, each with a different function; one for filing, one for removing ridges in the nail, one for smoothing and one for shining the nail. And I must say, my nails are very shiny now. I think it looks different in the US, but here in Australia ours looks like this:

It completely smoothes out the nail surface, as well as leaving it mirror-shiny!

Oh, and I also got this baker boy hat:

Possibly the only non-trucker/baseball cap I look good in *is in love with these items*. And can you believe the hat only cost $2.50 AUD? Wow.

Anyway, have fun!

Well its finnaaalllly the holidays so expect more posting in the next two weeks. I was reading back through the archives (that is how much spare time i have now...mwahahahah) and noticed I have yet to comment on Alex Wangs fall collection and I have to say ALEX, YOU HAVE DISAPOINTED ME. Yes, you have let me down. What happened to the good old days? HUH? (ie Fall '08). WHYYYYYY!

Fall 08

Fall 09

I mean, I dont see much of what I liked about Alexander Wang in the first place in his most recent collection. Sure there were a couple of nice dresses, but nothing that really stood out to me. He focussed a lot on cutouts, like sooo many other designers and there wasnt that sort of street influence that came out in his previous collections. Basically, if I hadnt been told it was Wang I wouldn't have known. It wasnt terrible, but could've been so much better

*sad face*
