Clockers

Photography & editing by Elisha Blogg

Wild Flower blue 'Clockers' Dress, Steve Madden suede booties, vintage tassel bag, silver bracelet from the markets, etsy rings.

What a beautiful surprise it was today to receive these photographs in my inbox from Elisha!

We took these back in the summer, see that dry Aussie grass! It must have been in November.

I remember it being soooo hot that day & I think the next day I was off to the Pearl Jam concert...don't ask me how I remember that!?

This blue dress I designed & made to wear to a Christmas party, yeh hmm wasn't the best of nights but I showed the dress some love by giving it this photo shoot.

I call it the weird name of the Clockers dress 'cos I designed it while watching Spike Lee's film Clockers....straight up! makes sense, not gonna pretend. I am always very inspired visually by Spike Lee films.

I ended up giving the dress to my sister Emily. While I'm at it, big shout out to my Sis....... x There is no me without you x....... She looked amazing the night she wore this dress, she has the va va voom figure every women wants to have!

Can't wait to work with Elisha again on some future projects lined up!

Stay tuned for PART 2 of the Vagabond Skivvies when they show off their merino wool pants in the junk yard..... 'nuff said.....!

No DI$COUNT

I freaked when I went over to DI$COUNT & saw this!

I got the $2 T-Shirt!!!!!!!!!!

This is their first ever (and only one of its kind) DI$COUNT piece available for purchase.

And its not just a piece....its this....which I'm all about.

Cami wearing the T-Shirt-

These girls have such amazing attitude!

The belted leather piece in the middle is by Nadia, its part of her graduation collection & it is now worn by M.I.A in one of her new video clips. Hell yeh!!

I said in an email to them that I will make sure to take good care of the T-shirt so when the time comes I can donate it to their museum exhibition.haha!

Last pic is of the ring they designed in collab with Meadowlark. Its pretty frikkin stunning, as I type this post I just realised I have lost one of my stacking rings...so might be needing a new one.

You can get it here.

Not all at once fellas leave one for me!

Wild Flower Styles

A little sneak preview of some 'behind the scenes' shots of my photo shoot to launch my first Wild Flower product!

Its very exciting and a dream come true for me. I have been working on this project for a long time now and its slowly starting to take shape!

To give you a little bit of an idea of what I am doing here-

Amongst the people I know I look around and see so much talent and so much potential. I can't even count the amount of times I have talked with the people around me about following our dreams and creating something with and for ourselves. oh no I think I am actually gonna say......together we can make it happen! hahaha! Yeh nah its true, I have always felt restricted by the thought that I had to follow a certain path to do what I want to do but now I am making my own way.

Hope you're feelin it too

Tim Burton

Went to the Tim Burton exhibition the other day.

His cartoons are amazing, extraordinary, out of this world & hilarious!

The part of the exhibition I liked the most were the cartoon illustrations he did during his years of study, & when he did his intern-ship at Disney. The cupid one I have posted above was included in that section. It was like he finished high school....went to study.... and cut loose with his drawing & ideas!

I spent almost 3 hours in there and think I may even have to go back, there was so much to see and absorb.

The exhibition took you through his whole life starting with images he drew as a child right up to costumes from his latest film Alice In Wonderland.

I watched the Nightmare Before Christmas last night. I love his style and at the end I don't want to leave the world he has created! All day I have been singing in my head 'What's this! What's this!?....dadadadadaaaa!.........'
