My C. Bear.

Adorable little C. Bear with her glamorously new long hair, wild enthusiasm and incredibly positive outlook on life, she's a treat to be near, I love her dearly. Also, my old home town Wellington, NZ is looking particularly beautiful and dreamy.

Ring Mad.

Some lovely jewelery from Karl Fritsch (Germany), spotted on the Gallery Funaki site (Crossley St, Melbourne CBD). I love how bold they are, but also how raw and primitive his silver/gold smithing technique appears. Always love the imperfections.

The Penalty

This video is magical.

H&M x CDG

 Rei Kawakubo for H&M. Comme des Garcons (French for Like Boys) conjures up images of black on black, polka dots, ambiguous forms, deconstruction, over-sized shapes and leather. I like all of those.

Yoni Wolf from WHY? Performing songs live at places where I want to be.

Balmain

Possibly the best jacket I have ever seen in my life. The Balmain 2011 Spring baseball jacket.

Hurache Sandals Too

Along with my revered obsession/fascination with Mexico (am traveling Central America in March 2012) is also my love for anything Mexican, including the Summer trend for Hurache sandals. Hurache sandals are native to Mexico and were handmade from leather and typically a tyre rubber sole,  There are many different designs and styles from different regions of Mexico. My favourites are the chunky slip on style with different coloured weave (available at www.fat4.com). Here is a blog dedicated to Hurache sandals! www.huaracheblog.wordpress.com

Cambodge.

Have just returned to Melbourne from three months in Southeast and East Asia! Had the most amazing experiences, adventures, met lovely new people, witnessed unbelievable unity amongst cultures and absorbed everything around me like a spongecake.

Here is a small snippet of photographs from Cambodia (Siem Reap, Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville).
