Kiss My Boots Hello....




These peeptoe/wedge/biker boot/heel creations from Wittner are quite honestly THE most fabulous shoes I have laid eyes on in quite some time.
.
I popped down on my lunch break to see if they met my expectations.....and oh how they did!
.
They're a little chunkier and more avant-garde than this picture suggests.
.
I lay-byed them immmediately....c'mon pay day so these lovelies can come out and play.....

Punk is not Dead....


And neither am I.

The hiatus is over and I'm back in the land of the blogging....

New Years is Old News...








Bowler Hat - Gift from sister, Korea___Nerd Glasses - Bought in Markets, Hong Kong___ Studded Tee Dress - D.I.Y___ Socks - Kmart, Aus___Shakuhachi Lace Up Heels - Bought for $100 at a sample sale, Aus


I know its a bit late but I've been super busy.
.
MTV picked up my contract for another 3 months so I'm hard at work on the Music Awards (LOTS of work!)
.
Jodes, Corz and a whole heap of my crew rang in the New Year at the Purple Sneakers House Party. Its the second year I've gone an yet again it was awesome.
.
Think a whole heap of indie-cool kids kickin' it on four levels of DJ's, bands (British India, Blue Juice, Yves Klien Blue, Teenagers) and retro movies (Bill and Ted, Mall Rats) - you get the idea.
.
Despite my best efforts to find something thrifted and fabulous to wear nothing seemed quite right, so in the end I took two things I'd scored at the op shop (A striped maxi tee dress and a 4XL bikie tee) and got all D.I.Y.
.
Pretty straight forward really - I hacked around the print on the bikie tee in a square-ish shape and stitched it onto the tee dress. Then I hacked (I keep saying hacked because my left hand isn't the best with scissors) the bottom off the maxi to make it a mini. Lastly I peeled the studs off some hairbands I bought for $2 on sale from Equip and glued them on the print. Not bad for a collective total of $10 huh?
.
In fact I'm so happy with my efforts I might just have to make my Big Day Out outfit as well - stay tuned....

If I Were A Shoe...





Then I'd be these Platform Pelvis Creepers from Office.
.
A bit punk, a bit pole dancer, a bit fashion - A whole heap fabulous.
.
They're on sale now but they're out of my size in both colours.....who do I have to crawl over to get these creepys?

Fang-tastic...

This ring is one of the things I bought myself with part of my Chrissie present from the boy (Another ring and a wallet with a cool $200 stuffed in it).
.
Its a little bit ugly but I like that about it...plus when I wear it, it looks like its munching on my finger.....

Rib Tickler...


This One Teaspoon cossie really tickled my funny bone - cute eh?
.
Shame I havn't seen it anywhere, as I'm yet to buy a new swimsuit this year....but seeing as I go swimming maybe, three times annually I'm sure last year's striped number witll be fine!

Re-Booting - Take I...


Customised by Kristin a.k.a one half of BLEACH BLACK

Congo Boot by Patricia Field http://www.patriciafield.com/

I gasped out loud when I saw these chunky lovelies on Kristin's blog - They're Patricia Field for Payless.
.
At first I was bummed because I know that Payless doesn't ship internationally (Where's the love Payless?) However much indepth detective work (that is, a quick google) revealed these are available on Patricia Field's website on sale for a mere $27.50 U.S.
.
I know they're not leather but the fact they remind me so much of a ye olde knight's helmet makes me not care....
.
As you can see from Kristin's pic, she's added some mighty spiky studs - I feel I might embellish mine too once they arrive - I'll let you know once they get here.....
