petals & peacocks

MAC - Give Me Liberty of London

i DON'T do pink..

but this is an exception

Came in the mail today. Yay.
colour - petals & peacocks

time is of the essence.

how oh so appropriately named is my favourite mag. RUSSH. my life is one big whirlwind of exciting new adventures at the moment, hence my missing in action approach to the blog of late! but alas, here i am :) and as much as i would love to d.i.y as much as luka does, lack of minutes in the day, and licence (seeings as though our main craft shop is a fair hike away), i'll stick with the fashion posts until i stumble across some spare time.

HELP ME!

i can't make up my mind as to what little leopard print numbers i should invest in. flats or heels, flatsss orrr heeeeels? that is the question! thoughts?

ciao my loves, xx

- insert witty title in regards to chain here -

EASY PEASY DIY
by Luka.

I did this a little while ago, I just didn't have any decent pictures of the end product, I still don't. One day when I'm big & strong, & can actually be bothered taking a nice outfit post I may stick it on here, until then...

-then secure the chains by hand stitching them (however long you want them to be) to the outer edge of the cuts.




- The pictures aren't real sweet because I am wearing a black singlet underneath, but I'm sure you get the idea!

tata for now !

i dont give a damn bout my reputation.

That old cliche saying sex drugs and rock n roll comes to mind after reading reviews for the 70s inspired movie the runaways.

... 'stewart and fanning convincingly snorted drugs in airplane bathrooms, made out together and danced around in leather trousers and bikini bottoms.'...

i'm all about indie flicks and i need to see this movie.


here's riley keough and chloe sevigny looking wonderfully glam in their all black outfits at the nyc premiere.

d.i.y's were successful, flat batteries and being unable to find battery charger for camera were not... epic fail.

currently listening to : jump in the pool - friendly fires.

& then the leopard got nailed..

Nail Polish -
Gold - L'Oreal Jet Set - Full Tilt 125 Perle
Bronze - LA Splash - 12035 Shimmery Bronze

CURRENTLY..
Listening to; Sugarbaby - Morningwood
Wanting; the perfect pair of black studded leather biker boots for winter & a black leather jacket.
Wishing; that it was actually possible that I could find the above, cheap. Ha.

Boring day at home alone = DIY, whilst cooking spaghetti, whilst watching The Hills

BTW-
it looks a lot better in real life.



ANYHOW, best be on my way to work!

... all good things are wild and free.

^^ black lips, trend i love but would never, ever be able to pull off.

evening peeps! i'm tay, the other half of this shared visual journal of ours :)

as my lovely lil friend luka is 2 posts up on me, i thought i'd better snap to it and share my thoughts, opinions, ideas and diys with the blogging world also!

currently i am!
listening to: she's got you high - mumma-ra.
and finding inspiration for: the 2010 paper dress competition held by our local council.

thought i'd share my last years entry. our first ever class project so quite amatuer, but managed to score a highly commended place so cant complain :)
... made out of toilet paper and magazines.

Inspiration for this years entry below...thinking i'll make something out of old sewing patterns
and their packets that i got given a couple of years ago, which i have sorted through. i kept the good and somewhat changeable, but majority are so outdated it hurts haha, altered or not.

over n out rubber duckies, tay xox

I found myself in wonderland..

FOREVER21 WISHLIST by run-dontwalk featuring Forever21

So, above, is pretty much all the items currently sitting in my Forever21 'shopping bag'. I am yet to make the order, will probably do so after work tonight. Minus the bow, because I actually made my own version last night (below), purely because I didn't find 'The Matrix Reloaded' as fascinating as my dad did.

I'm pretty cool. Ha.
Headband - DIY
Bracelet - Tiffany & Co
Watch - Marc Jacobs
Dress - Zhouk

So easy.
I plan to make more!
