faye....
i found this photo of her in a slip in bonnie and clyde
and wanted to post just that - the one with the bow...so lovely
but then it turned into a lovefest of her beautiful face
it's really perfect

sugar town






ok
i am hesitant to say this
but do you think this rock and roll studded crap is gone?
says she, sitting here wearing a studded tee shirt

but anyway
i am ready for something softer
with a bit of shearling chucked in

lovely

there seem to be a lot of these weirdy hippie image sites
and i am a sucker for them
can't tear myself away

but i am not really a hippie....am i?
is it because i am an aquarius?

tyke - the black and white photo is a good outfit option for you know what in you know where

gnashers



whaaaat?
how big are this fella's teeth?
from here


this reminds me of a trip to vieques
when we swam in the luminescent bay at night

but i was scared, even in a shallow bay
i would not do this (above)
are they mad?...... sharks live here and they want to eat you

pretty is not a dirty word




more prettiness from here

why do those rodarte sisters insist they are insulted if someone says they make pretty dresses
and then they show more pretty dresses?

if the shoe fits....
plus, thats why we like them, right ladies?

the runaways







i hope this movie is going to be good

oh well...so what....i will probably just like it because of the clothes anyway

long beach flea



i want to buy a new house
not new new, but new to me
so i am on a strict flea market budget

so this is all i bought today
3 holly hobbyish pincushions that david thought were revolting
and a leather bag/box for pens and markers to stand in

$15 total

so young




johnny depp from 1984
my dad told me recently that i should
'watch out for this fella - he's going to be a big star'

from here



this could be a tourism video to lure us back to the motherland
made me feel so homesick

but homesick for my fantasy of england
with my rose coloured glasses on

is that gabrielle drake towards the end looking all miserable?

nice



about 10 years ago
this lady went out of her way to help me with mon petit oiseau

she might not remember me, but i will always remember her

haiti fund raising tee








just completed designing and making samples of a fund raising tee for haiti
i cut the block myself out of a rubber brick
and printed the samples and hang tags by hand

it is made out of super soft lightweight cotton in a cool relaxed silhouette

soon they will be for sale on the velvet website
i will post again when they are ready

all the profit from the tees goes to non profit organizations helping the earthquake victims

will keep you posted!




wtf!
i only just found out about these products - marmite rice cakes and cheddar bites
not available in the usa as far as i can tell

i was just home at christmas
if i had not been distracted by the weird stalker at asda i might have seen these
and eaten them

now i am mad
can someone send me some?

james castle







thanks to here for posting a link

an interesting story
and lovely folksy work



these chairs are right up my alley
from here

i would like to have a go at making something like this
but i don't think i can be bothered

found..patti smith book






finished reading this
and loved it

but was disappointed in the photos in it - all blurry
but then i remembered i have this book that i have not looked at in years ... from 1998
with brilliant photos and poems

although i have to say, and you know how much i love patti smith
this last photo does look a bit dodgy
