Sometimes it’s a drag wearing tights, but you’ve got to shimmy them on. Especially if you’ve got legs like mine that are whiter than The White House, Washington D.C., U.S.A. If it ever gets warmish in the summer, passers by need shades otherwise it’s hazardous to look directly at my pins; they could blind you. [...]
Yes it’s April and it’s still snowing. It should be warm. Instead, it’s snowing. But you know what we should do? Instead of complaining we should roll around in the snow, go sledging, look up at the sky and stick out our tongues to catch cold drops. We should take a leaf out of this [...]
If you find yourself a loose end in LA, but have a cup, some ink, and a brush, then you should make your way to the Sumi Ink Club. Sumi Ink Club is a drawing collection based in LA, established in 2005 by Sarah Anderson and Luke Fischbeck. Their favourite style of drawing is topsy-turvy, [...]
By Kate | February 26, 2010 Being a faker is underrated in my opinion. I love faking (not important stuff you know, but the little things). Like when you’re having a chit-chat conversation with your hairdresser and she mishears you: ‘Really? You’re a brain surgeon?!!’. There’s the brief pause where I scan the room, making sure there’s no one I know [...]
By Kate | February 20, 2010 The 1970s. So much to love. Anita Ward bellringing. The original and best platform shoe. Sideburns. Cinema horror classics Don’t Look Now and The Wicker Man. Everyone dancing like this……. And now you can relive all the golden days with a click of the finger, as you virtually surf your way back in time to [...]
By Kate | February 14, 2010 What’s the first thing to spring into your mind when I say ‘cavern’? I have to admit that for me, it is Aladdin. You know the big tiger’s head made out of sand, and its gravelly “diamond in the rough” voice, which I’ve often tried unsuccessfully to replicate. That was one cavern to give you [...]
By Kate | February 2, 2010 Returning from the Netherlands, you realise just how much the Dutch love their bikes. The streets everywhere are lined with them, and they’re not just for show. These are real bikes for real people. But in the world of cycling there are some important considerations to make. Are you going to be a practical biker, [...]
By Kate | January 24, 2010 In January things can get a little heavy. The snow has stirred up some post-Christmas stress, everyone feels calorie dense, the resolutions didn’t really ever get going and it’s still really cold. So what we all need is a healthy dose of light entertainment, and I’m not talking charades. Let’s play a game of ‘would [...]
Posted in fashion | Tagged animal, china, christmas, couture, dress, entertainment, fashion, feather, january, Shoes, skirt, tweed | Edit By Kate | January 16, 2010 The world of graphic literature, offbeat news, culture, art and debate is, by nature, always morphing into new modes of expression, and in the case of евтини мебелиT-Post, the shape and texture of its expression is via t-shirt. Combining news and a graphic t-shirt, T-Post is the world’s first wearable magazine. Every six weeks subscribers [...]
By Kate | January 12, 2010 Does everybody have a funky uncle? I’m trying to think about funky things my uncles have done, but struggling to come up with material…does balding count as ‘funky’ these days? I think the ideal funky uncle is a diverse character. He has interests which span agriculture and food, investment, media, time travel and fashion. Thanks [...]
