Rize

Hello, I'm a ghoul out for a feed...but cocktails and hitting up some clubs beforehand ;p ! Also, I meant Ghoul as in Tokyo Ghoul, one of my favourite animes that I religiously watch every week. If you like supernatural, action, lots of deathgore, it's FOR YOU! I really want a deadly Kagune (cool weapon that morphs out of their bodies, comes in an assortment of sizes and shapes, each one is unique to the individual) to whoop some serious ass. I'd be happy to take requests too!


american apparel top, ultra suite (super old) silk halter, choker by malibu 1992 (gogo philip).






I've been watching so many animes lately! I've been sick so lying in bed all dayyyyy... :D

Hope you are all happy and well and not sick!!

Prismatic core online

I've had my eye on those fluffy motel crop halters lately. But what's more fun and more importantly, economical (been so good saving for JAPAN in April) than making your own! Here's a tutorial on how to make a basic halter neck that I did a while back... I chose a downy fluffy material and bias seam ribbon from my local fabric store. It's like a dreamy cloud :D.




More after the break!

DIY: Crop Halters from Old T Shirts

Have a bunch of cool old T shirts you only ever wear to bed these days? Being a reformed T shirt collector I had a stash with super cool graphics but they were a horrible fit and some had just seen better days. With the weather heating up, on this side of the world, I initiated a salvage operation...

Here's what I came up with, an easy way to revamp those forgotten tees for summer in just 6 easy steps. Watch my video below and be sure to let me know how you go :). I'm sure there are plenty of awesome childhood tees that haven't seen the light and I'd love to see them!

All Demin

What's the next step up from double denim? EVERYTHING DENIM! It's a darn shame I don't have denim hair or underwear. So, Friday night is Four Thousand's 300th birthday party (if I was still in Japan I wouldn't have an issue walking out like this just for coffee) but it's Brisbane so any excuse to dress up and I am there with bells on - or denim!










vintage halter and shorts customised by me (dug em out from the grave aka back of reject wardrobe), vintage denim jacket (stuck some stuff on that), american apparel socks, tokyo bopper shoes, necklaces from ebay and customised (with a glittery teddy from Harajuku) hello kitty ring from vending machine and mlp bracelet gift made by a friend. 

Right now I am exhausted from going to IKEA then putting all of the things I got from IKEA together. Getting too old for this IKEA bitniz...but hey I also got these acrylic nails last week and they lasted throughout the whole building affair!? I'm impressed. I'm not a nail biter and my nails get pretty long but goodness are they weak as hell that's why I wanted to give them a go. Moreover, because badgalriri sports those cool pointy ones but the nail technician convinced me they were yuck. Anyway I found this Iggy Azalea interview really entertaining and she also gettin' her nails did...'gotta get the bread roll and dip it in the buttaaa.'



Please feel free to share some of your epic denim outfits dream/actually wore, would love some great ideas for Fri Fri :)

DIY: Clear Drawstring Backpack

Excuse the thumbnails while I upgrade my cam, my 4 year old pro is getting jealous of my iphone 5. I've been getting back into sewing lately and made this clear bag from leftover materials and a bit of drawstring. It's super easy and I hope you like it!







Topshop cropped shirt, bershka sports clear jacket, american apparel shorts and socks, necklace gift from naked label, wedge sneakers.

To make the bag, I followed this youtube video but made the straps doubly long (for an adequate adult fit that doesn't strangle the armpits) and just added the plastic section in the middle of the bag. Instead of two pieces for the bag I had 2 X top sections for the bag which you sew over for the drawstring, 2 X plastic sections in the middle and one large piece for the base. I ended up adding some casings for the drawstrings for that extra detail! 


I've been also thinking about making fur ones, fully clear ones, vinyl ones, with different thickness/coloured drawstring, possibilities are endless! Good luck and tell me how you go...

Lonely God Potato Twists




















knit top asos, american apparel chord skirt, belly button platforms from tokyo bopper japan

Yahoo got Laneway tickets this morning! Not to mention and extension on an assignment, pleasant surprises, keep them coming this way please. I got these bone tights from the adult shop the other day, getting ready for Halloween outfit #2. Being a weekend long affair, gotta squeeze the dead juices out of it you know.

P.S. I haven't eaten the lonely gods as of yet but here is my example of a cross cultural advertising barrier. EAT POTATO TWISTS BECAUSE THE ALMIGHTY GODS ARE LONELY! Cool, okay...bought. God I love the Asian supermarket!
