I have also been getting e-mails about chunky platform shoes and were to get them. Click on this, it will take you to etsy and what I usually search to get some good finds ;). If you have any etsy store suggestions, I am totally addicted and would love a visit too.

Weak Ends

Wearing my gift from Floriana of Shampalove! This shredded bandeau dress is made by De Vi Lish himself; made super long, it flowed way past my feet [made to be cut down to size where you like it] like some dark mermaid. Layered over a bandeau and some bike shorts with a silk sheer a dear friend made with losta love, way back when to keep things modest. Also wearing a perfect little quartz necklace wearing I got in the mail from Adri. She also made me one of her laser cut cross earrings. So stoked!

Those who have me on twitter or instragram, I'm sure you're away of my current obsession with Gregg Araki's work (Doom Generation is my all time favorite), just can't get enough and I LOVE the fact that he include Slowdive all his films, maybe that's why... anyway what are some more obscure directors you are madly in love with that I should check out?

Miss Match

I bet you can guess which movie I'm from (easy)! I'm sure we can all dream of some sophisticated no fail - computerized dressing system, but where's the fun in that!? I like a little wrong, a little ugly... forgetting glossy 'trends.' What do you think folks, describe your ultimate wardrobe/dressing system, I'd love to hear some of your ideas.

Speaking of computers, I think if everyone got f.lux the web would be a friendlier and warmer place, literally. If you haven't gotten it already it's a software that adjusts the your computer screen to the time of day and lighting condition of your room to improve your sleeping habits or just makes things on screen look better. I accidentally disabled it for a few minutes and things got real ugly real fast. The best thing? It's automatic. ;) So try it out, let me know if it works well/doesn't do it for you!

BPA Controversy

If we can all integrate organic polymers of high molecular mass commonly derived from petrochemicals, we would be recycling, indirectly (hah). Latest fetish; there is something cold and creepy (the way dexter wraps his victims up in glad wrap) about clear accessories even though they reveal all. In loving memory of the blow up sofas and photo frames as a kids, clear jelly shoes, I have a feeling it will all come flooding back what, with the rise of 90's nostalgia. However YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED: people steal shit they see, speaking from first hand experience.

Saw Outerwaves make some wonderful music for us on Saturday night as apart of the Brisbane Emerging Art Festival at Metro Arts. Had such a fun night of art gazing and unexpected performance art! Everyone went back to the boys' place for drinks, drawing, moosic making (with the rappers, bongos, mini korg, a selection of electronic 80's funvices lying about) and dress ups then trekking home as the sun come ups. Photos up on my instagram...it's nights like these that make you feel like everything can be okay if you want it to be.

Merry Val's

Just another day of loving anything and everything for me! Your pet, your best friend, band, book, family...lucky enough to spend time with someone special perhaps? Dress for the occasion, listen to Lana Del Rey, be a little romantic in your own way. There's just no need to be a ralph or whiners off tumblr for that matter. BOOO HOO.

Then It's White

Recently, I've lived my life these chunky brown boots; laneway, das racist, op shopping, you name it, they have been there yo! Besides getting too comfortable in my shoes, I have started a jewelry design/silversmith course at Fio for the next 8 weeks. So far I've made a little jigsaw piece thing and a ring! It's been exciting and enlightening, learning all the processes and finding out how much patience and work goes into each stage. Maybe I'll have some images of Matt's awesome studio and us working with Maddy on our pieces next time!

On a side note, I like long skirts A WHOLE LOT, however 'Amish' (according to certain mutual friend) they may be...?

Air Lock

Laneway, despite the wet weather (which wasn't too bad anyway) was a total success! The stages were super close and all undercover nothing got in the way of aural orgasms. So impressed we managed to see everyone we planned. It was a love fest of bitter sweet heartache and romance told by the likes of girls, active control and twin shadow; soothing those lovesick. Being able to see the horrors (again), torro y moi, sbtrkt, total control and yuck redefined the feeling satisfaction.

Anywho, here are a few shots by Adri when we hung out in Hong Kong! Can anyone please recommend the latest chick flicks (good or completely crap) for my next cynical deconstruction movie night :D
