i think i'm drowing, asphyxiated




j'adore everything about christian louboutin and his sex on a stick shoes, except when it comes to putting the narrow little frenchies on my wide fat feet. but hark! these jazzy little numbers would surely be comfy and just as fun to look at!

you don't know how it feels to be me




ok, before you get all "a leather bodice?!! in the middle of WINTER?!", just picture this under a snuggly soft plaid button down (unbuttoned most of the way of course), black skinny zipper jeans (or maybe some hold beat-up holey boyfriends) and some bomb black platform booties. convinced yet? no? well fine. the cheese happily stands alone.

even better than the real thing



works featuring petit-point embroidery by francesco vezzoli. i'm sure much of the amazing detail is lost in these sorry little jpgs, boo... who wants to take a trip to california and check them out in person?!

instant karmas gonna get you




choice quotes from vogue uk's interview with lara stone:
  • "I am a complete alcoholic. It used to be so easy to say to someone, 'Get me a bottle of vodka,' and they'd run and get it. Going to rehab was the best decision I ever made. The last six months have been the best of my life."  
  • "I'd already tried everything in Holland. Anyway, I never wanted to be that model on drugs, the sort who gives head for a line of coke."
  • "Men don't like me. I haven't been on a date for six months. I've just started a club with a girlfriend called the We Hate Men But We Can't Be Gay Club."
  • "I shouldn't be wearing these shoes. Because I hate the designer and never wear people I hate."
So loving her right now....

it took a life span with no cell mate with the long way back


sure it was just halloween and tis the season to be a bit macabre, but this ad by superette (tag line: be caught dead in it) is just all sorts of wrong.
