unif HELLRAISERS

I just received my first pair of shoes from unif via Solestruck.com

I've watched countless YouTube unboxings, read reviews, ummed and ahhed about my size and which colour to get. Finally I bit the bullet and got the neon pink ones.

Solestruck said I had been "solestruck" and I got free expressed FedEx shipping which was a bonus. That's now the third time that's happened. Love solestruck!

The hellraisers are a perfect snug fit in my usual US10. I was warned by reviews and by the complimentary Solestruck bandaids included in the box, that these shoes give you blisters first wear, so I wore socks. Wore them all day and night. No blisters. Perfectly comfortable.

I'm now even eyeing off the black with gold spikes unif website exclusive pair... Is that crazy? Probably...

They'd be replacing my Jeffrey Campbell elegant studs which even after having resoled, are so stretched and worn out I basically can't wear them...

Do you think I should get another pair? Would you wear these spiked slippers?


Love,

GLUE + GLITTER + GEMS

So last night I helped my friend Kat with costumes for her final show as one of Ladykillers Inc Burlesque
Alyce and Michael also popped in and contributed

Kat and I started by sewing little fluffy pom poms onto a dress each

Then we stitched little rainbow bells onto the bust

and then we began to glue rainbow gems onto the bust cups and down the centre 
to fill in the empty space (sort of)

Alyce made these awesome head-dresses that Kat found on Etsy for about $200
These ones cost no-where near that much and they look EPIC

Michael helped finish off some bras that Kat had been gluing tiny crystals to
he was such a pro!

So here's some snaps, but not giving too much away - don't want to spoil the surprise!

Love,

Wear + Tear.

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.
