Acid Wash Wednesday

Here's today's outfit

Tee: some random menswear store in the laneways in Melbourne

Belt: Nicholas

Necklace: ASOS

Jeans: GAP

Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

I took the belt off before work - probably not the most logical accessory for

sitting at a computer all day

Love,

Wear + Tear.

All Kinds of Wrong

No. Just no.

Love,

Wear + Tear.

Mazal Tov Bitches!

So I'm nearing 400 posts, and to celebrate I think I wore an appropriate t-shirt today

I really do plan to take more photos of my daily outfits

for you and for myself

half the time I forget what I own and how I wore it

so it's a win-win situation, really

I'd appreciate your comments and feedback on my outfits and where possible I will say the brands and places I got everything I wear

Love,

Wear + Tear.

 Tee: Urban Outfitters, Necklace: ASOS, Jeans: Jay Jay's, Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell from Solestruck.com

 I left my hair in a plait for 24 hours and this is what happens

 Watch: Swatch, Nails: OPI

It's all about the shoes, really

SHOW SOME SKINS

I'm about half way through Skins season 5 and I've gotta say I'm bloody enjoying it

This series never fails to allow me to disconnect from reality,

slide on into a crazy house party

and learn some new terminology to reawaken my youth

If you haven't watched any series of Skins before, never fear - this one features a new group of teens

ready to rock your socks without prior knowledge

Of course, I highly recommend going back and watching series 1-4 as they are truly epic and enjoyable to watch alone or with your own rowdy crew

Here are some photos to show you their individual/edgy style

I don't think I'll be wearing knee-length metallic leggings under a mini skirt a la Mini any time soon though

Love,

Wear + Tear.

TIGHTTIGERS

Do you like sequins?

Do you like showing some [or all of your] leg?

Do you have a spare $500?

Then check out

and get some cool shit!

I like the concept, images and style

I do wish they weren't so damn expensive

But the best things in life these days just are

Love,

Wear + Tear.

ALL THE LOVE IN THE WORLD

For some reason this song popped into my head. Trent Reznor's lyrics always fill the void when I'm feeling moody.

It's moody Monday don't you know?

Of course I'll add some lovely pictures as well to ease you into the work week.

Love,

Wear + Tear.

Watching all the insects march along
Seem to know just right where they belong
Smears of face reflecting in the chrome
Hiding in the crowd I'm all alone

No one's heard a single word I've said
They don't sound as good outside my head
It looks as though the past is here to stay
I've become a million miles a...

Why do you get all the love in the world?

All the jagged edges disappear
Colors all look brighter when you're near
The stars are all afire in the sky
Sometimes I get so lonely I could...

Why do you get all the love in the world?Why do you get all the love? 

 I love a good moon tan

 I love this shot, the hat, the studs, the pose

 A DIY nightmare that I'm willing to try

 Aztec nails, yes please!

 If I wanted a bike, I'd want this one

 Green and yellow hair <3

 All spiked up

Cat Flats

Charlotte Olympia Kitty flats

I would love to find knock-offs in HK or China

Would you wear these cat shoes?

Love,

Wear + Tear.

NEON FOR EONS

OH HI, NEON. HOW ARE YOU?

Neon is back in town.

Neon was previously worn by festival kids and douchebags nation-wide

Now neon is chic and cool.

Neon went away for a while, possibly to rehab, but his agent won't say.

It's all very hush-hush, but I'm pretty sure Neon's releasing a new album soon.

I wasn't sure if Neon was just showing up here and there for old time's sake,

but he keeps reappearing, so I think he's here to stay.

For Summer, followed by Winter and who knows for how long.

Oh, Neon.

Welcome home.

Love,

Wear + Tear.
