Bones are Fascinating

I am completly intrigued by this necklace I really want one I think it might be awkward to ask for one as a birthday present but wow. If you have an extra $80 you should really get one.

A really amazing online botique Bona Dragcarries them or you can look around on Erica Weiner's site at the rest of her amazing jewelry.

Patrick Wolf Vulture

This is a little NSFW but AMAZING love Patrick Wolf so much. This is the first single off The Bachelor. He is totally doing a Morrissey (at least in grand hand gesture department) in the part with the button up and suspenders.

Watercolor Mania

I love water color beyond words I had never used watercolor for anything more than a time killer. We started using it in my fashion illustration class and I love it so much. It is funny that I did not follow a single instruction from our professors demo but he did not care and told me to do whatever I wanted so I did. I have a ton more to scan and I am going to try and put them up on sunday or monday
This one is inspired by YSL f/w 08/09

And this one by a McQueen piece from decembers british Vogue

Blowup






Although Blowup the 1966 British film by Michelangelo Antonioni lacks plot and substance really it is beautiful to watch. I did some screen caps if you want to see. There is a small mystery midway through the film but it still does not carry a plot very well. I would say if you can watch a movie for pure aesthetic value you might like this one.

Karl can I steal Daphne

Pic overload of the fierce Daphne Guinness






Had to throw some Jefferson <3 Hack in the post as well




So I feel that Daphne Guinness is one of the most amazingly stylish people out there. I want to steal her from Karl Lagerfeld and dress her up. She is like a super stylish Cruella De Ville (I want to be her for Halloween possibly)I could say I am Cruella to my non fashion friends and then say I am Daphne to my fashiony friends how great would that be.

More Patrick Wolf Goodness


So you might not have seen some of my previous posts but I love love love Patrick Wolf something about the mix of Violins, Ukuleles and Fabulous Clothes just get me. I am thinking about getting an octopus necklace like his not because I am a copy cat but who would not want a giant necklace with an octopus on it from ebay. And also in other Patrick Wolf related news Tilda Swinton is doing spoken word on his next album (she has a truly amazing style as well). Please buy band stocks to support his new album from Band Stocks he cant put it out without your help. P.S. Do you guys like the Octopus necklace well pendent but I would make it a necklace.

Control

So I just watched Control for the 2nd time (its the Biopic about Joy Divisions Ian Curtis) I really love Joy Divisions music and I think they really pulled it off in the movie the cinematography is stunning as well. Here are some screen shoots I took of it. I do have to say the movie makes you feel like no one has an Idea what they are doing and that if everyone had just paid more attention to each other the suicide would have neverhappened but that is just speculation regardless it is a beautiful movie with amazing music and I usually hate remakes but I think that they got the music spot on without trying to hard.

The deepest corners of my computer

So I did the GREAT PHOTO REORGANIZATION my computer is a mess I love folders but I never put anything in the right place. So I just found this photo I took at one of my photo shoots and I love it. The exposure was to high and it turned out great but of course I did not find it until way after the project I was doing had to be turned in oh well. So what do guys think of it?
