Bikie Gang.

Hail to the revival of the naughty bikie gang!. I'm smacking my lips about, the oh so trendy, and cute mid length bikie zipper jackets. I absolutely adore the black and tan versions. Although white is an option, unless you lean on nothing, and touch nothing, then go for it.

The sexy look is teaming the office pencil dress with the naughty bikie jacket and bring on the bling!, arms, fingers, neck, I'm saying pile it on to give yourself that naughty but nice ensemble.

As for footing. Any pump or peep toe heel will be suffice! but don't scream, 'look at my feet'. The attention must remain with the little naughty jacket.

Steer clear from teaming up the bikie jacket with tights, if you have east and west happening down there.

Terry Timely | Synesthesia

The duo of Ian Kibbey and Corey Creasey, together known as Terry Timely created an amazing short film that explores the theme of synesthesia. Check the video on their site or on vimeo.

syn·es·the·sia syn·aes·the·sia (sĭn'ĭs-thē'zhə): n. A condition in which one type of stimulation evokes the sensation of another, as when the hearing of a sound produces the visualization of a color. A sensation felt in one part of the body as a result of stimulus applied to another, as in referred pain. The description of one kind of sense impression by using words that normally describe another.

I keep trying to think what this dress reminds me of- and I think its some kind of toy car track...

ARE WE SICK OF GEOMETRY? NO

I just came across this collection by recent Antwerp-college-of-fashion-design-greatness graduate Irina Shaposhnikova on the Today and Tomorow blog. I love the fact that her take on the sculptural futuristic shapes are transparent so you get a silhouette within a silhouette.
About a year ago there was a show called' triangles' or some such thing celebrating all the work of graphic designers who have used a notable amount of triangles in graphic design and illustration... (including moross). So perhaps when people hark back to the right now (from the distant future when were all reminiscing about Tunnocks Teacakes) for inspiration- we will get ... triangles. I have banged on before about Geodesic structures and how they are the source of all current creative evolution (possibly) but essentially they relate back to the triangle, so where next... Inversion of space as apposed to the creation of structure to encapsulate it?
BLAH BLAH BLAH best keep steer of visual black holes when researching for a summer collection aye.

TAN - ORAMA

Ladies and gentlemen, may I please have your attention. A fashion crime has been committed, and unless we unify to rectify the problem, then we will all look like a sea of oompaloompas....!

I'm addressing the 'tanning culprits'. Please, please, please!, since when did it ever become acceptable to 'over tan?'.

As I enter the sunny side of our world, I am greeted with a flooding combination of all shades of 'tans'. From crispy bacon shades, to melon balls, and orange peels, and don't forget the broken up forms of shades.....

' Tan in moderation'... meaning, don't over do it......... tanning is not like accesories, where you can overload and unload. If anything, peel back the layer darlings... and allow your own 'naturaaaaaal' colour to expose.

The ugliest sight before my eyes, a lass clad in a red uniform type garment ( pencil ensemble), and peeps of 'over embellished tanning'!!!, she looked like a walking hot dog.

If you must tan, then at least ask a fashionista for an opinion, or to at least tell you when to stop and look at yourself.
