Leather daddy / fetish scene aesthetic meets Motörhead has leaked into ready-to-wear and its making me all tingly. It's inspiring some androgyny in practice or portraits with me. I'm not quite sure but is right on the edge. The sleek lines work with the matte & shiny leather super popular with Givenchy and Burberry this season. And what can I say? They make the cop / motorcycle hat look hard edge (Nightporter) look so good.

Something in my life has me gravitating towards super simple editorials.

Which is weird because I usually like my editorials done up like NYC drag queens.

The nails, the (almost) Interview With the Vampire make up and the stark backgrounds make this throb off the screen.

For me anyway.

Inverted - Mod / 60's is a exactly what I want to see to make these color block trends appealing.

Such a simple editing trick to get to high fashion Tron.

Fucking brilliant.

I almost died when I saw the iridescent snake hide.

These are what I call 'fuck me chairs'.

They look so good you want to fuck on them.

Get it?

Dying Planet

noreply@blogger.com (Moonlight Rambler) — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 19:45:00 +0000

Lust is the only word to describe my feelings towards huge mineral or gem stone cocktail rings placed in creative settings.

The Apatite looks like its been excavated from the core of a dying planet and has the power to protect or destroy - whichever the wearer wants.

Shoe Porn > Christian Louboutin Daffodile

noreply@blogger.com (Moonlight Rambler) — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 19:58:00 +0000

I love a super super high heel but can't believe Christian Louboutin has embraced the bondage pump with the Daffodile. I like the idea of them because fetish / bondage fashion is really where it's at, but I don't think its very sexy when each teetering step requires every ounce of will and concentration.
Walking in heels should look effortless and whenever I see these shoes in action, the wearer is always seated or walking awkwardly. And shape wise, they kind of embody tissue boxes.

STILL these shoes just ooze sex in a way that makes you want to put on a trench coat and walk all over some guy
Maybe if I take them down an inch and half, they might work.

Animal Skullery

noreply@blogger.com (Moonlight Rambler) — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 15:28:00 +0000

Everyone gushes over the animal skull jewelry by Alexander McQueen, Pamela Love and Gisele Ganne, but honestly, I prefer Etsy for the personal touch when I have the craving for some taxidermy jewelry.

But seriously, not only are you supporting the indie designer but you're getting a genuine animal skull to show off and horrify with.

Trends don't bother me.
However I am extremely bothered by the way people flock to shit with that's been marked up 100% due to having a big name associated with it.
As I always ask, what happened to fashion for fuck's sake?

Ahhh monster fur! I want this in white but I think it might be too much look.

And waaaaay to hard to keep pristine and clean.

Still I love the silhouette the jacket gives, paired with leather leggings and a tote.

So what say ye?

Yes? No? Maybe so?

From Michael Kors 30th Anniversary.

Where can I find metal chokers like these?

Such an item skirts the line between bondage bitch and psuedo ethnic.

This could me my to die for 2011 accessory!

Spring Forward For Me

noreply@blogger.com (Moonlight Rambler) — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 16:30:00 +0000

Once the rain stops, this might be my look for spring. Love the leather paneled pants and a leather jacket over a deep brown top paired with platform strappy sandals AND pantyhose.

I haven't been feeling the neutrals this spring but brown / tan is a compromise, don't you think?

Jesus I love this Burberry ensemble.

Well the jacket and the skirt.

Not so much the neutrals and the shoes.

All Saints Gets A Wishlist

noreply@blogger.com (Moonlight Rambler) — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 20:25:00 +0000

My attempts at shopping less (but really just shopping more online) has resulted in me being relatively checked out on new retailers.

So yesterday, when a girlfriend and I did some serious damage downtown, I was amazed that there was a fucking All Saints store.

Where the fuck have I been?

Not buying $800 jackets, that's where.

Anyway, I begrudgingly left the store with an epic wishlist that I've shared below.

noreply@blogger.com (Moonlight Rambler) — Wed, 09 Mar 2011 17:46:00 +0000

Reminiscent of wearing baskets on your feet like Howard Huges, but a severe heel and draped chains can save any atrocity.

Shoe Porn > The United Nude Block Pump Hi

noreply@blogger.com (Moonlight Rambler) — Mon, 07 Mar 2011 19:38:00 +0000

Where's the pin point stiletto heel you ask?

No where.

I'm switching it up.

Probably inspired by Balenciaga's block heels this season.

These are a more realistic alternative and seem like they won't murder your feet.

The architectural split of the heel is to die for and the color is just the right amount of WTF to make an all black outfit pop.
