human hair coats, the new fur!

second photo is Maison Martin Margiela

wow, is all i can think of, i mean its ugly, but its so ugly that its intriguing. Not that i would actually WEAR it, but its intriguing. For some reason when i see these designs i get a sense of, that there was a message, a meaning behind it, but it may just be me. Since it is fall season again, ofcourse fur is back. Well, maybe the designers wanted to be different! maybe they wanted to show to world that if people wear another being's fur then why not a humans? our hair. It's like showing the world how it would be to wear a humans "fur" put it in our eyes what we are doing to animals for their skin and fur, but then again, it may just be me.

go read their blog! very interesting

Gothic lolitas, japanese street fashion,Mana

So, lately I've been fascinated by japanese culture, music, fashion for the most part, whether it has been a good reaction or bad. I dont intend to dress everyday like a goth-loli, which is another term for gothic lolita, but I cant look away, I'm fascinated! The slow bug like me just figured out this fashion a short while ago, as they have him a style since the 90's. Gothic lolita style has nothing to do with being the usual thought of a gloomy goth, but actually girls like to be "cute" instead. As they try to look like porcelin dolls, in their victorian/edwardian inspired clothes. I think I've been fascinated by this goth lolita look because the goth look is really in fashion right now for fall/winter, or maybe its the fact that the look is inspired by victorian/edwardian time periods, which I've always adored and envied since childhood.
That picture dipicted above is Mana sama and what looks like she is infact HE. I've been reading up on him, and as faschinating as his fashion is, his work is fascinating also. He is a guitarist of a band called Moi Dix Mois, the songwriter stylist of the band, and not only that he produces the music and he owns his own independent record label. While doing all that he doesnt speak, literally! He always has a speaker talk for him whenever he is interviewed, or in public, as I'm sure he DOES talk sometimes. though i digress..Mana has his own fashion label to boot all of what he already does. He creates his own gothic lolita fashion and gothic aristocrat which is the mens version. Did i say i was fascinated? I am.
Also i gotta say gothic lolitas totally beat sweet lolitas.

Hair Hats, Nagi Noda

Bear
These wonderful hair hats are shaped into animal shapes, and I am in much awe. The artists name is Nagi Noda, and I have much respect for her. She passed away recently at the young age of 35, due to complications in surgery; which saddens me dearly, because I have just heard about her and her designs. Also because someone which such imagination and talent is now gone. This entry is for her, and I hope many people hear about her and her desings, because I'm left speechless by them. I want one, I want one baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad. I would wear mine out proudly even If i got stares, not sure if they are for sale though. I leave you with a short photo montage.

I am still amazed, and saddened by her passing because of such raw talent.

Androgyny in Mulberry ad

So I was flipping through a magazine, and i came across a Mulberry ad that i found interesting. The ad was for some new bags that looked pretty cool, but I was more intrigued by the models..

I couldn't tell if the model at the top left side was a guy or gal, i did a double take. I seriously stared at this picture for half an hour, it drove me crazy!! I mean ( lets refer to subject as IT for now) IT looks pretty flat chested, but so are the other models! IT has short hair but so does the model next to IT! I felt like mullberry was playing a game with me... Then i gave up guessing and turned to page..ahh answer revealed

EVERYTHING EQUESTRIAN!
this is a bit late since the equestrian style came up a while ago, but then again, I've always loved anything that has to do with horses, I just never thought to blog about it.

The riding top hat:

I love it, i love it!! Then again I love top hats period. Though, this one ( I found at an equestrian site) is the perfect top hat, It has a short top, so its more wearable than a tall top. The hat also has a curved brim, so its not to harsh, AND it had a friggin bow on the back, though in this pic, its not so visible. I can already imagine myself wearing it ( without the built in helmet of course). I would seriosuly wear it with every outfit, and not care that i get dirty stares, but this hat is over 150 bucks...sooo not so afordable. :(
The riding coat:

This coat looks sort of like a normal coat, but i feel it looks so much nicer than any reagular coat. The way if wraps on the body, and the length, the buttons, the sleeves, the color, the COLLAR! everything about it, I love. The waist looks so incredibly flattering, and the hem just perks a little, i love it!!
The riding boot:

This is really the perfect boot to walk around in, Its flat and tall and the curve at the top is so understated pretty! needless to say, I'm in love.

Lipstick Jolie, and mascara Bette Davis

( this is relevant because it includes makeup and art)
okay so i was on youtube and i found these two AMAZING videos of this artist painting Angelina Jolie with lipsticks bunches of lipsticks, and paints Bette Davis with mascara, boy what an inspiring thing to see. I mean, not only is he using and unusual medium but he is painting Jolie UPSIDE DOWN! And the mascara painting... simply amazing. How many times has girls tried to put on mascara and has smudged? He painted with mascara exquisitly, makes sharp edges with the tool that women battle with everyday. envious? visit his website at: http://www.EclecticAsylum.com
i would watch the vids if i were you..

MASCARA Speed Painting Bette Davis Eyes

I'm obsessed with..

The oxford pump:


Im obsessed with the oxford pump! they look so hot, PLUS they stay put on your feet when you walk around. The look is so slim and just a fun shoe. I plan on stocking up this fall on these, and wear them wherever i go, flats are out, heels are back!

Two toned tights:


I love this, so so much. The look is so edgy and different and fun. this is either a "you love it or you hate it" thing. But i love it! these tights paired with a bright dress would definetly turn heads. you can buy these at american apparel

multi chain necklaces:


Like my sister says, chain necklaces can be trashy AND classy! multi chain necklaces are great. you can wear them down or dressy, just awesome , plus they add a little bit of edge.
