Sunday, uh oh here comes Monday

I'm backkkk...
For some reason I've not had time to blog nearly as much as I should be...however, I'm not going to apologise again, instead I'm just going to pretend these big breaks from blogging haven't actually happened, and that I've been here all along
xxxo.

Mystery Bruises has a new tumblr...I wonder if I'll fall into the same trap...

Sounds: Hella Good by No Doubt

Crave you

So numb from being such a good scholar that I've neglected everything in my life except for study...I honestly cannot function right now...writing this and making sense has been the toughest part of my day...appologies

Sounds: Big Poppa by The Notorious B.I.G

I like boats, they take you places

So last Wednesday night was a night of jam packed fun with my dear partner in crime Trevene Patrick...also known as the infamous TK from Death in Berlin...he's a badass photographer with a badass mo, and if you don't check out his work...then i guess you're not badass...
Other crazy events from the night included the Notorious Raul up on the mic...come join him Wednesdays at The Club and maybe he might start making regular appearances...

Satan is waitin'

So I've not been very true to my blog lately, but worry not, we're committed to each other, we've worked it out and our relationship from now on will be stronger than ever.
This is just a quick posty post highlighting my other love for inspirational photography...these images are a reblog from fellow bloggers SkinandBones and A patch of Skye who I think are the top blogs to find images ranging from the genre of soft goth to crystals and chandeliers, sexy male models and words of wisdom/cliché...I find myself sitting on these wonders clicking the next posts button for hours on end...good work guys, you've got me hooked...

Sounds: White rabbit by Jefferson Airplane

Oxford

I apologise for not posting anything recently so here's a bit of a quicky...
I think this shot was from sometime last week when i tried to get a bit experimental for about the third time with denim on denim, inspired by Ksubi's Spring/Summer 2010 collection "One via Zero" ..I threw a little khaki in there though because of the minus a million temperature here in Sydney..

Channelling Chanel

So I found this beauty two days ago at the newly re-vamped bondi junction markets...$70 for this vintage red silk Chanel shirt...I'm in love...
As I was looking through these photos I actually noticed I was being a bit of a Chanel whore with my J12 Wristwatch on..aha...
A girl can never have enough Chanel..

Sounds: Hanging High - Lykke Li

Wallflower

These are photographs from a few weeks back now but they have only just been uncovered into the realm of facebook by my dear friend Lily...I made this earring about two month ago out of bits of chain and a couple safety pins after admiring some much simpler chains at fringe bar markets, a must-do if you live in or intend to visit Sydney...I'm planning on a little surprise with these earrings in the future, so keep an eye on She Like Menagerie...
As for this week, I have been frantically cramming in bits of french and technology for my assessments as well as struggling to finish off my art major work...so please don't expect a lot from me this week due to my life's busy nature...however I can imagine myself later on in the week spending hours on end procrastinating and blogging just a little bit...maybe a lot...

Encore Encore!: RP/Encore

Reid Peppard is not your ordinary jewellery designer/taxidermist...She in fact is one of my most favoured designers ever...

"Anyone who actually reads about these pieces will understand that most of what I do is simply preserving (with great care) creatures that would otherwise be left to rot and ruin in the streets of London." - Peppard to "You might like this"

I love the beauty she finds in such seemingly repulsive animals, taking the avant-garde to a whole new level..You may have seen Lady Gaga sporting one of her rat hair pieces in her film clip Bad Romance...Not to mention her envy-worthy connections with Viktor Vauthier, who I might add is in my top three list of photographers...
I would LOVE to own one of her rat coin purses, I might have to look into Australian quarantine regulations for that one..
Reid Peppard you are amazing

Wanger

So the title sounds a little dirty..ok..but really I was going for an Alexander-Wang-desc kind of look with sweat pants, leather, boots and a loose side plait of which I believe the frosted, or rather orange tips of my hair ruined the whole look...which is why I have changed my hair colour back to normal...back to black babyyy
So on this disgustingly cold night of which these photographs were taken, I had spent a lovely little date night with the wondrous girl i call a friend, Camilla...We saw a movie and had a very chilly walk home and things got interesting when I ate some lovely mushy risotto out of her fridge...I will leave you with a little excerpt from Judith Wright's poetry..."Woman to Man"...figure it out...


The eyeless labourer in the night,
the selfless, shapeless seed I hold,
builds for its resurrection day -
silent and swift and deep from sight
forsees the unimagined light.

Sounds: Ones who fly Twos who die - Jonathan Boulet

Crystilate

I thought I'd catch up on my blogging a little bit with this quick photo post...
1. Unknown, I would just like my own little bambi
2. Ash Stymest, God if he really exists
3. Outfield by Mikala Dwyer at the Bienale on Cockatoo Island...if you haven't been yet, i highly recommend it...I hope to pay another visit there soon..
4. Ursula Andress, another hot bond girl
5. What sexy table centre pieces?!, reblogged from A Patch of Skye

Loose nights are great ones

So I haven't really been posting a lot lately due to the hectic nature of my school assessments at the moment (I should probably be studying for my maths assessment tomorrow) but I'm going to leave you until whenever I get back on my blog with a lovely little post-saturday night outfit post and my designer post below...If that made any sense to you...

This was an outfit chosen straight out of Camilla's closet once again...visit her at Mystery Bruises...Vintage Red velvet is deliciously good looking

I want to know what you guys want me to post in the very near future, so leave some suggestions kids :)

On my mind: Kiel Mead

Kiel Mead is a wondrous designer and I have decided to share my love of his jewelry pieces with you...Living and working in New York, Kiel takes objects you would never consider beautiful let alone something you would want to wear and turns it into an artform, from drill bits to chewing gum to retainers, cast in gold and silver, these beauties are amazingggg...I wouldn't mind meeting this curious man one day
His pieces are available at online store Areaware
1. Retainer
2. (The cleverly named) Key rings
3. Matchstick

Driving in the moonshine

So Saturday night was interesting to say the least..first of all I arrive at Jess's house ready to go out and she's sitting infront of the TV in her ski outfit, thai take-away in hand...So once Britt arrived it took them both 100 outfit choices to go for a "quick" drive to Browny's...2 hours later, after getting lost in Clovelly with a faulty air-conditioner resulting in a constantly fogged up windscreen, we arrived...and that was just the beginning!
I won't go into detail any further, but you get it, it was one adventurous night..
note that I am wearing my new flower garland which embarrassingly I bought at equip...I think it looks good guys...

All we gots some test shots

So last Saturday, Amelia, Jess, Courtney, Gavriel and I spent the day fucking about in the rain trying to get some good shots for Amelia's Design work but due to the horrid weather we decided to just go back up to mine to shoot the rest...in the end we completely changed the aesthetic of the shoot...but you're just going to have to wait to see the final shots, which by the way have nothing to do with any of these..



1. Courtney, Jess and I, slight test shot

Meow wow wow

There's no question about how much hype Miu Miu has recieved since the launch of their S/S 2010 collection...everyone is desperate to get their hands on their nude lady printed collared shirts and swallow print platformed mary janes...as do I! These are the times I wish I were Tavi Gevinson who pretty much owns the whole collection I neeed to be wearing right now...and in my desperation, I'm contemplating DIYing my own collared shirt or if I prove clever enough, my very own Miu Miu inspired platforms...we'll just see how that goes...
