If The Shoe Fits...

Sometimes it's fun to make a list of all the things you'd do/buy if you won the lottery. If I won any large chunk of money, one thing's for sure - I'd buy a crap-load of shoes.

Here are just some of the shoes from the New Arrivals section of solestruck.com that I am drooling over. In no particular order....

Love,

Black, Pointy and oh-so-sharp, the Swordfish by John Fluevog is literally to die for.

WXY - The Fighter. You'd definitely win.

Underground tie-dye creepers, for your inner punk mermaid.

The Hutton Boot by Friend Of Mine. Oversized animal pony fur with western metal detailing - great for any fashion rodeo.

235103 by Kenzo. They numbered it because there are no words to describe it. I can think of one - FIERCE!

Strassy lavender leather boot by Opening Ceremony is like the lovechild shoe of Vivienne Westwood and Twiggy.

JC Clarkson - I believe this boot is named after Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear. I probably just made that up. But it would make a great driving shoe.

FEBRUARY LOVES

Hello world!
Here are some awesome things I have discovered this month.
Some I now own, others I have yet to obtain.
The rest is random inspiration!
Enjoy!
Love,

Edun SS12 Campaign: Butterflies and Babes

Such a simple idea, and yet totally cute and fun

P.S. Everyone is obsessing over Charlotte Free right now!

Ode to a 3-day week and 4-day weekend

Who dares disturb my slumber?

It's not your hand, but your spell I'm under

Thunder sounds just like it should

I'm better left misunderstood

Your choice of words is so specific

Acidic rather than idyllic 

Better still, better paused

Better found than a lost cause

This 3-day work-week feels like a life-time

so I just kind of spilled out that poem just then

It could be song lyrics

who knows

speaking of music, my band spend 3 days/night last week recording our single "Trace"

We will do a mix review some time next week, and then the final mix

will be sent off to be mastered

all very exciting and I will post the link to Triple J Unearthed when it's up

I get a 4-day weekend this week

Tomorrow I will sleep in, maybe go in the pool or clean

then heading to BDO at night

Friday I'm having my hair done (my bleach/roots)

thinking I want more of a colder toned blonde like a purpleish tone rather than the creamy beige tone I get

either way I'll post photos

and my band-mate Grace who hasn't cut her hair in probably 2 years is finally getting a haircut

THOSE are some before and after photos you'll want to see!

Saturday will be prepping for a shoot that I'm doing on Sunday

meeting with Kat the stylist at her new apartment in the Inner West and steaming garments,

also painting some false nails to match to the clothes

pretty excited about this, being the first shoot of hopefully many monthly shoots with my friend Reef from innerstyle.com.au taking the photos and me doing the make-up, hair and concept

I also have to find some time, possibly tonight, so edit the photos from the Jasper and the Divine shoot from Sunday and post them here

Enjoy these images from my morning trawl

Love,

Wear + Tear.

I either leave my brows au natural or I fill them in with brown eyebrow crayon, but tempted to try whiting them out (not permanently though)

 Gwen is always going to be a princess to me

 Chloe Sevigny is pretentious and often irritating, but she knows how to rock a new 'do

loving her with blue-black locks

 Kate Moss sure knows how to rock a crown

 fair-floss fair

 could you rock glossy taupe/grey lips?

 Hair inspiration for Sunday's shoot

 David Hasselhoff wore the Man Lita for charity

 I want some vintage barbies for decoration when I finally move out

 and a hello kitty kitchen

 and rainbow roses

 I could eat this every day

 a behind-the-scenes shot of the China Doll palette and look from Lime Crime

 just awesome.

 I've been rocking bronzey eyes this week, then I found this :)

 Far out - Illamasqua is so amazing

 I really should experiment more with my liner and a clean lid

 One day I'll invest in a proper watch and do this

 DIY for a future shoot perhaps?

 Ivania from Love Aesthetics has the ideal shade of violet blonde that I'm after
