BTSTU















Henry Holland dress, Fleamadonna Leather Jacket, vintage plush dog backpack, platforms from HK

It got so hot today, summer just hit us in Brisbane quite unexpectedly (storms are on their way). I'm sooo ready to get my little dresses out and shed those layers! I don't know if anyone has this problem but I get headaches from wearing jackets...perhaps too many studs/layers, all that weight, yes I am a weakling...

5 things I am extremely excited about coming up:
  1. Assist styling an epic shoot on Monday inspired my ancient oriental culture, think house of flying daggers involving thousands of dollars worth of ancient headdresses and imperial garments (more scared)
  2. Attending friend's show Cotton Pony next Friday night
  3. My best friend moving up to Brisbane during the week
  4. Being in a Zombie film on Saturday
  5. Seekae!

What's your 5 this week?

Wonderland














Henry Holland silk shirt, Zara leather dress, swan garters, vintage lace ups

Freshly dyed hair! Started using Stargazer semi permanent rinse (off ebay) which is like 98349234 times better okay. It's definitely brighter and shinier and comes in a squeeze tube (YEAHH), 1 bottle ended up being plenty for my lengths. Also bought a bunch of La Riche so I'll fill you in as I get through it all.

Been enjoying life too much post uni we're talking waffle dates, kareoke, diablo 3, making shapes on various d floors (not in moderation). It's been a long time coming and graduation is near need some kind of dress but might just scab something off my best fraaaan. Still lusting over Emma Mulholland, graduation backpack anyone?

I'm also really excited about sharing some pictures from a shoot this weekend I did with the AMAZING Amelia Dowd (who I have also worked with for Colony) for a super talented fashion student. It's all under wraps right now but I can tell you it involved asian supermarkets, burgers, gaming arcades, drool worthy tights, sugar, unicorns and swimwear. Super surprised with the things we got away with that day, didn't end up getting kicked out except for a group of creepy bums and rise of the drunks at the end of the night. There are a few sneaky peeks on my instagram (@wenopia)!

Trilla
























asos knit turtle neck, joyrich leather jacket, H&M leather shorts and cotton thigh high socks, diamond shades 

From a time where I could never wear a leather jacket with leather shorts...I feel as though there's nothing wrong with a little leather overload. Am I right? I've been addicted to searching for leather/latex catsuits for no reason at; it's all too intriguing!

I've also been neglecting the ends of my hair and topping up the top sections with manic panic's shocking blue because;

1. I'm lazy (z)
2. I'm economically destitute (!)
3. Doesn't look too bad (?)
4. Considering dying the ends another shade (?)

Corporeal












vintage lace body, zara leather dress, mania mania choker, lace bobby socks and creepers from ebay


Breaking Open the Head by Daniel Pinchbeck is blowing my mind to smithereens right this second! If you haven't heard of this book, it played a huge part inspiring Gaspar Noé's Enter the void, of which I am a massive fan. It's an informed exploration of the history and culture of psychedelic drug use (with revealing insights into its alienating nature within the conventions of modern western culture) as well as the documentation of transcendent and terrifying personal experiences of Pinchbeck himself. I'm 20 pages in and I have never been this enthralled, being slammed by such sagacious philosophies I must now BROOD over. .

Meat and Pet










leather rabbit mask off etsy, mania mania choker.


Most people approach rabbits as if they were stuffed animals: cute, but not capable of much except, maybe, eating carrots and twitching their noses.

Paint bombs studded shrapnel












Fig. 1-5 LABRAT X BERBERJIN seen on new love; tokyo telephone, who also create a few studded bad boys of their own.

Fig.6-9 The Milk of Danzig hand painted one off pieces by Claire Barrow, apparently you can send off your own jackets to get customized. SICK SICK SICK SICK SICK SICK SICK SICK.

GOLLY! All this pimped up leather has really tempted me to wreak havoc on the plainer ones of my collection! I've been getting even more ideas by jumping onto ebay, there's a plenty of good authentic customized vintage ones out there too.

Jumping on the punk band wagon this festive season?

Ice Cold












This was taken back in the HK; now we live in a shoebox. Comme des Garçons lace shirt, Zara leather dress, demonia creepers, jacket from Zipia.net.

Happy Valentines Day! What did you do today?

I spent the day in the cold and the night in the snow, (trekking around for buns for breakfast) with my best friend! I'm in Tokyo right now, we visited Tokyu Hands, 0101, Beams and had tempura for dinner! Really disappointed Foals sold out, it took us a while to figure out the ticket machines...

Any recommendations of places of visit/eat?

no strings








vintage sweater, leather skirt, doc martens

I haven't watched it in ten years.
I remember lending Pinocchio to a friend and never got it back.
It's okay, I don't have a tape player anymore, anyway.
