Specs on lovely faces

More on the geek chic. I love heavy plasticky bins these days. Have been thinking of wearing mine more often. But these inspiring chicks below have fabulous faces and skin. Not the same wearing specs if you have a zits and a pallid complexion.

Geek - the perfect antidote to rock and studs

Much as I have enjoyed the rock look, I've been drowning in a sea of studs, leather, black and sequins in the shops. Its all gone a bit highstreet. So recently, I have been craving a bit of librarian-ness in my life. And backpacks and rucksacks are suddenly right again.

Presenting my latest purchases. The spectacles are vintage 60's NHS from Dead Mens Spex
Great name, just says what it is.

Illustration in the house






Saw the "What are you like?" exhibition at the Dulwich Picture Gallery last year and bought the book from the House of Illustration. Love them, especially Eric Carle's.

Feast


A smorgasbord of stuff that I like; fashion, streetstyle, art, music, videos, illustrations, ads, food, moments, moods. You know, the good stuff.
Why? Well, why not? Add my $0.02 to the cacophony of blogs and other virtual nonsense.
