Lady with a waist smaller than a ralph lauren model

ralphlauren

Cathie Jung (right) has the world’s smallest waist at 15″ caused by wearing corsets all the time. A lesson to be learned for fashion labels who get in so much trouble for photoshop disasters. It’s ok to permanently disfigure your models right? Beauty is painful.

Yellow shoes

Today at David Jones I found a pair of beautiful shoes by Emporio Armani and they were half price and the last pair were in my size! They were very awkward to walk in so I didn’t buy them, but I wish I had taken a picture, can not find them anywhere online.

Above is a similar shoe with the same twisted heel, although the Armani ones were paler and PVC (?) certainly not satin.

All i want for christmas

Adcult USA by James Twitchell (US$23)
I can’t find this book in any library and really want to read it. In fact any of James Twitchell’s books will make me happy.

Diamond & Ruby earrings (US$599)

A Kitten
+ a box or two of hayfever tablets and a more animal accepting boyfriend.

1950s Seafoam Green Dress (US$87)

Macbook
This is more a need than want, being painfully aware that after next week I will no longer have a computer or a phone. An android phone would also be good.

Luxury penis jumper

2009_10_apcardigan

I love Agent Provocatuer and was a bit sad when I walked into a store in Paris and realised there was no way I could afford a 200 euro bra. One day I will be able to afford such luxuries and hopefully they are still selling penis jumpers then!

Raising the IQ

I like that MR Vintage have put this Muldoon quote on a tshirt, it has been my motto over the last couple of months and it’s even my Skype status. Someone should probably buy me the tshirt.

Oh why are these pretty shoes not my size

shoes

In comparison to one of my best friends who is absolutely nuts about them, I’ve always thought I’m not a girl who loves shoes. However I do like having pretty pairs which I barely ever wear. I think these would do nicely in my collection, but alas vintage shoes are barely ever my size.

Do you know which other Prime Minister has a daughter who dresses weird?

There’s been some controversy over this photo of Spanish Prime Minister’s goth daughters on a political trip to the USA via gawker >

Kinda similar to someone else who else took their fashionably awkward daughter on a  political trip to the USA recently….

DIY Laura Ashley Laptop Bag

This sewing pattern is hilarious! I had Laura Ashley wallpaper in my lounge growing up, so it is a nostalgic brand. Also nostalgic for me is the orange clamshell ibook – just like my first laptop. But seriously, how did I miss Laura Ashley making laptop bag patterns?

One lucky person gets to buy it on Etsy >

Salmon dresses

Saw this dress in myers. None in my size so tried on one too big and it wasn’t good. But would totally make cute bridesmaid drsses IMO
