OneFlewOverTheCuckoosNest

Finished my exams, drank myself into oblivion and now have nothing to do. Saw this editorial on childhoodflames.com and fell in love with it. Its from Vogue Italia, July 2007.

Im going to fail my exam tomorrow

So a little bit of fur, gold, head-dresses, head-bands, bleach and roots, boots and monkeys will cheer me up.

Teenage Mutant Ninja... Poodle

Its things like this that amuse me while I should be studying for my Irish Literature Exam.

Study Attire

From Vogue April '09
I have been pretty much living in something similiar, except I dont hang around lamp-posts and street corners wearing it.

Im a creep, Im a weirdo

Influenced by my stylish friend Rhys, I have come to the conclusion that I most definitely need a pair of creepers. I am thinking Leopard print ones all the way.




The lovely supermodel Behati makes me want them even more

Dont step on my Studded/Spikey Shoes

Its just past midnight and I should be studying for my Cultural Identities exam which is technically tomorrow. Its all very interesting, I'm focusing on the monstrous female body... and doubly monstrous women; women who are doubly monstrous because they are female and disabled. Im looking at how female amputees in horror films are portrayed as deviant and monstrous... so anyway I gave up studying for a while to take a look back over Junya Watanabe's last few collections -as one does the day before their exams. The reasoning behind this is, I did a presentation on Comme Des Garcons (Junya Watanabe and Rei Kawakubo) for Cultural Identities last year. Looking at how the garments of Comme Des Garcons deconstructed gender ideals - they basically get rid of gender in their clothes... So I came across these babies from Watanbe's Autumn/Fall Collection 2006



I studded two pairs of cheap boots that I have, im very tempted to get a nice pair of brogues and stud them now. Ok now back to the study....

ConneryandCaine

I love this picture of Sean Connery and Michael Caine with his wife Shakira. Her sequinned dress and matching hat/head thing is amazing. The men are sauve and she is beautiful. Its a lovely old school glamour photograph. Plus the size of Michael Caine's dickie bow is great.
