What do you get when you sew a picnic rug to a garbage bag?

Helena Bonham-Carter's heinous dress.



Love,

Mademoiselle Yulia





This crazy model/singer/blogger/designer/tv-host (and just about everything else) is one to keep an eye on. Think of her as a cross between Lady Gaga and Katy Perry, but Japanese!

We will definitely keep you updated on her (cos she's awesome), but for now, just enjoy the photos!


























































Love,

INSPIRASIAN!!






Kate Hudson Odeon London red carpet




 

So I'm feeling all Asian inspired after purchasing this rad kimono from Bondi Markets. Alas the joy of facebook has now left this garment somewhat over exposed. I have now, thanks to snap happy friends and avid uploading, been busted wearing this ensemble two weekends in a row. GASP! So I post it in hopes that it will forever remain in the cyber world and thus can be enjoyed there rather than the next bar hop.. hmm.. who am i kidding i'll probably rock this thing to a thread of silk in which case i'll turn it into some form of head garnish. LONG LIVE THE KIMONO!

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair!




We love these girls' style! Funky outfits, killer heels and strangely-coloured hair!

Wear + Tear.

Lee(d) by example


If you love Lee, new and old, then this is the jacket for you. Based on the original Lee 1930s Rider Jacket which has been customized with two X's, a small one on the front pocket and a larger one on the back - it is part of a colab with Mercury-Prize-winning depresso hipsters The XX.

So, you love black, you love Lee and you love being moody and humming along to The XX?

You want this jacket more than a new Kohl eyeliner?


Well TOO BAD! You can't have one!

They only are for The XX and their entourage to wear on tour.


Good work LEE. Way to piss off the masses LEE. Go back to making skinny jeans for teens LEE.

We don't even like the jacket to be honest, but don't you always want what you can't have?

We here at Wear + Tear plan to make our own. Keep an eye out for details.




Love,

Wear + Tear.

Desert Daze

In The wake of the burning man festival, we are feeling the uber cool vibes of art installations that make no sense nor form any purpose, fingers in an endless breeze that seems to be travelling no where in particular and hard core nudity that would rival your down town brothel.
Are we glad we didnt go - HELL NO! Will we go next year - YOU CAN BET YOUR FREE HOT DOGS ON IT!
Just some things to amp us up for the next round, you can never plan too early...

So for anyone that has only just emerged from their cave dwellings and isnt quite up to speed on BURNING MAN let us give you the low down and a few quick tips on how to get by:

1. Clothes are not mandatory, and nor should they be. YOUR FREE MUTHA F&*KER! LET IT ALL HANG OUT... and take my word for it... most people take this VERY literally..



2. You can not purchase things at BURNING man, things can only be traded. Perhaps this woman decided to trade her clothes for a baby, perhaps Angelina Jolie, or Madonna could give this method a whirl. surely its more cost effective and would avoid all that horrible papaerwork that comes with pakcing a human being in your suitcase and smuggling it through customs.

3. The product of some 48,000 + people turning up to this spot in the desert is BLACK ROCK CITY. Not to be confused with "Paradise city" or  "New York City". Yes these too are in america, my little troglodytes but the biggest difefrence is that Paradise City is just a name of a song and New York City is an actual city. Black Rock City however is a haven for extroverts and experimentalists of all sorts. Like a pinata filled with all different candies, but you have to open it and try the candy before you could ever REALLY know what its like!



4. Dont come here expecting to find your typical Glastonbury celebs. Most of these folk are out of work whack jobs. Sorry Leelu but Bruce Willis wont be making it this year, he's too busy saving 20 year old buxom beauties and taking them back to his retirement village for DIE HARD 5!





So are you sold yet? US TOO.... JUMP ABOARD!

Love,

Wear + Tear
