D and G is for me

D&G accessorized their Mens fall/winter 12 runway show with Skullcandy headphones. don't believe me? you need proof? you got it dood (Mk & A shot out). The show was styled amazingly well, the headphones were a perfect addition, and there was shameless branding as far as the eye could see. I loved every second of it.

the headphones featured were the Aviators in brown/gold, G.I. in gridlock, Lowriders in shoe yellow, and HESH in electric animal.










The unscrupulous landscaper

There is 4 video series. I suggest you view all.

on new years a friend, kevin, had a mini polaroid and was documenting the nights events. he would snap a shot and then gave that picture to that person. I loved that. It's one thing to take pictures and be greedy/ lazy and keep them to yourself, but this was instant gratification. The kind that I like.

Confucius say: reduce, reuse, recycle.

Novella Royale is a Lux hand bag line. It's all made in the USA, and they strictly use vintage leather jackets in the making of their bags. *SWOON*
Each bag is a one of a kind and amazing. Oh, and they make one of a kind clothing out of vintage fabrics; kimono's, bell bottoms, genie pant and caftans. all inspired but the 70's. (can you tell I'm all about this). I would like one of everything please. My birthday is coming up you know.

Confucius say: cleanliness is next to godliness

I'm cleaning my hard drive. These are something I have stumbled upon. I do not recall the origin or reason I have saved them, but I wanted to share them before that get discarded to time.






Presenting "Miss Fire Prevention Week"

Black or slate?

hookers & asprin could cure the world

Granted it was late, but a recant acquaintance said to me "I want to take you home,and put you in footie pajama's and feed you marshmallows." I have known this individual for 4 days. Later in the week footie Pajamas have been brought up again. This strikes worry and curiosity for the mention twice in 7 days. I have been asked to make said PJ's since it's quite a chore to find (I wont buy online, I don't trust sizing.)
So this bring me to now. Thinking about;
if we should match or have unique onesie's to fit our own personalities.
I feel a monogram is more that necessary.
Piping and a chest pocket and required.
Should we go juvenile and stick with 1950's Dick and Jane motif? Or be the sophisticates wandering the house in Adult footed sleepwear?

Thank goodness I'm going to Michel Levines on Friday to hunt fabric down. I am more so going there for fabric for my classical Ballerina garment I'm making. Yes, I am in a Tutu Design and Construction class. No, I can't dance. No, I don't know anyone who does. doesn't mean I'm not going to wear it around the house when no ones home.

Would anyone else like some footed sleepwear with your name on the chest? you can have a title if you would like. Sir, Lady, Lord, Dr., the list goes on.


I could do this, I could do this better.

Bell Bottoms and Genie Pants

I was taken to WACKO last night in LA. I could spend days there and never cease to be entertained. (its a Gallery/ amazing industrial strenght gift shop.) They had a Charles Binger show going on last night and I was smitten.









*New goal in life- someday own a Charles Binger.

I once dated Woody Allen. Naturally, it was a temporary arrangment

I need to re-connect with nature, to kindle my relationship with the great out doors once more. I have only been camping twice, but I do love to wander through the forest (Big Cotton Wood Canyon namely.) I need to go real camping, so I'm going to start preparing for such an event by owning an axe. Basically, all I want for Christmas is knifes and designer shoes.




obviously I'm going to need the carrying sling to accompany. There is something about all this I'm finding so attractive. You can't tell me this isn't wonderful, you'd be lying to your self and to me. My 1# pet peeve is lying, and telling falsehoods to a woman with an axe is a terrible idea.

I would also like the clever, and this first aid kit. It's all made in the USA and some day I will own this. The time frame of ownership is undetermined.

For the girl who has it all-

Every now and again I will be adding to the 'list of stuff I don't need or have much use for, but would love to have in my possession regardless.' This will be a rolling list (like rolling count, I think I just made that up. go with it.)

FIRST UP! Scrimshaw




You can get the letter opener personalized!
I have been looking for a small pocket knife, this would be perfect, in my opinion.
But where to find such treasures? Etsy, my dear Watson, Etsy has it all

involinary impulses repressed

Fall is the season I love. but this weather makes me overly sentimental and needy.
Plants have started to grow, so excited for that 60 Ranunculs where planted (I went a little over board, even though I don't believe such things.)
Hats are coming along fabulously, much better than I could have hoped for or foreseen. I wish I had a personal camera to procure eveidents of my milinary skills. oh well, maybe that is what I will ask Santa for, probaly not.
I still want my shoes.
I know this is old, & I'm still mad about it.
