Say hello to my most recent purchase. Can't wait until their arrival.

Eileen Shields "Tara" Boot. Get them here.

Pretty Little Thing

noreply@blogger.com (vice+venom) — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 13:58:00 +0000

So I have this problem. I hate wearing bras. HATE. I just find them so incredibly uncomfortable. I'm therefore rather surprised to find myself writing this post, but this bralette at American Apparel seems like it might actually be wearable by my bizarre standards. Plus it'd look awesome peaking out the sides of an oversized tank top.

Heather of Bona Drag just previewed this awesome ring bracelet on the store blog, and I must say I can't even wait for it to be available on the site. Their jewelry offerings are always kick-ass.

I am so in love with this collection. It manages to capture slouchy, sexy, classic and urban all at once. Yikes, just realized it's been the longest time since I've been attracted to any color other than black...scrolling through my previous posts was a serious wake-up call.

PS Hope you guys like the new blog design!

death by studs & leather

noreply@blogger.com (vice+venom) — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 14:02:00 +0000

I thought I was done with studs but I thought wrong. Despite my recent vow to resist the now-ubiquitous trend, I just can't seam to get enough - designers continue to expand upon the rock/punk/glam aesthetic in new and exciting ways. Above is just some more foot candy I've been craving.

Bird skulls and rat jaws and teeth, oh my!

noreply@blogger.com (vice+venom) — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 03:21:00 +0000

Just came back from a lovely trip to Montreal where I was lucky enough to acquire a few new jewelry pieces. Harakiri is the creation of Mireille Boucher and I've quickly become a fan. Her use of skulls and bones are reminiscent of Pamela Love's edgy, feral designs, though slightly more delicate. I definitely like.

Ooh Baby Baby

noreply@blogger.com (vice+venom) — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 05:18:00 +0000

I may not be able afford Alexander Wang's denim/leather combo jacket, but I seem to have found the perfect budget solution, and without even sacrificing much on quality!

Blackmarketbaby is the Etsy shop of Montreal-based fashion student Audrey Cantwel l. Just five minutes on her site has my mind spinning - the materials are luxurious and the prices are extraordinarily cheap. This girl has got some serious talent, and I'm not just referring to her A.Wang knockoff. I've posted a few of her designs below...can't wait to see what else this chick has in store.

Girl Crush take 2

noreply@blogger.com (vice+venom) — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 21:37:00 +0000

As per usual, Alexa Chung looked super cute on her show today. I can't get enough of her quirky style and attitude. I usually h-a-t-e pearls but she just wears them so well - paired with an oversized sweater (j crew, I believe), uber-tight skinnies, and killer heals. Speaking of which, can somebody please report on these fantastic shoes? I'm dying for more info.

update: They're Marni. I'm salivating. Here's a better shot:

I can't stop thinking about this aviator-inspired leather jacket by Acne... too bad it's worth one month's rent.

Alice + Olivia for Payless

noreply@blogger.com (vice+venom) — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 06:25:00 +0000

Is this for real?!? For those of us who've been lusting after Chloe Sevigny's dreamy buckled wedges, a reasonably priced but equally alluring alternative is finally within reach. The "Madison," designed by Stacey Bendet of Alice + Olivia, will soon be available at Payless for $45-$50. Oh wow I can't wait for fall.

Pierre Hardy x The Gap A/W’09 Footwear Preview

noreply@blogger.com (vice+venom) — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 00:08:00 +0000

Though recent years have had me doubting whether The Gap will ever succeed in making a comeback, this Fall's footwear collab with Pierre Hardy is definitely a step in the right direction (no pun intended hehe). I need those white platforms. In-stores mid-September.

Hello world! So this is it - my big (or not so big) debut. I'm finally giving my daily musings a home of their own on the world wide web. Looking forward to my new life as a blogger!
