The skate park is for skaters...

And artists. And apparently it's a hangout for the 'Twat Squad', as it's clearly been marked by their kind. All are welcome at the skate park. Seriously, though, the skaters weren't bothered at all that I was rolling around and frying like bacon in their ramp. Perhaps it was because of this diaphanous Alexander Wang dress. I'll tell you who will be bothered, however, is my dry cleaner. What the heck is this shit on my dress?! I blame the 'Twat Squad'.

The xYz necklace

Whenever I wear distressed denim, the elders in town always ask me if I can afford jeans without holes. Which makes me wonder, when I'm old enough to be called an 'elder', what will the youths be wearing, and will it offend me as much as 'hole-y' denim offends the seniors now?  Aside from wearing my most favorite and beloved destroyed denim, I am wearing the xYz necklace from the STYLEBONE collection. It goes with everything (I mean, literally, everything- try wearing it with your pajamas, you'll feel f'ing fab), and it's super shiny- if you wear it, they will come. Umm, they being boys, or girls, whatever you're into...or if you have kids, this necklace will distract them long enough...

Sometimes inspiration comes when you least expect it....like, say, when you've had four hours of sleep in the past couple of days, and you've subsisted on only coffee and wine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. New items will be featured on the shop site soon.

Angelina on the mind

I've swallowed the Angelina Jolie-Pitt kool-aid. Not the having multiple children part, or fighting world hunger part (though those two things are wickedly cool), but the part when her wardrobe gets dark & sinister for her portrayal of Maleficent. And I have a ton of these 'gowns' hanging in my closet, so why not pull one out and wear it during the day? Minimal adornments, simple hair, killer shoes, all I need now are the horns. But really, I'm not evil. I just like to dress the part.

The rules of white

1) Wear white whenever you want, though you may want to have a spare outfit just in case of spills. 2) Cheap whites look cheap. Always. 3) The best accessory for whites is appropriate undergarments. 4) A good self bronzer does wonders for an all white outfit; just apply a day or two beforehand, and quality really does matter so as to avoid the 'rubbed off' tan. 5) Sometimes, well, most of the time, a loose fit is best. 6) As a rule, I always avoid white capris. Just don't do it.
