Pastel hair wave

 So I've dyed my fringe pastel pink, I'm not really a fan of pastel colours but in the hair it seems pretty good. These photos are from a night out at the Tote. Black velvet catsuit, metallic pink clutch, and pink tassel earrings all from my Edgeley AW-12 collection, boots courtesy of Dr. Marten.

 My sister Bella is also going through a pastel phase, though she has magically done a gradient mauve to pink. 

Midnight Woolf and the Brothers Grim were playing at the Tote, both mega excellent bands which I would highly recommend. I was jumping around in my boots and drinkin' whisky, very excited indeed.

PS. I think all the Midnight Woolf artwork is Lluis/ Fuzzhound in the band. So good.

Poodle Paradise

Why wouldn't you want a poodle?

BLOKK

Blokk is having an exhibition at the Hogan gallery at 301 Smith St. Collingwood, the opening night is this Friday 4th May 6pm. 

This is a reflection of one of his amazing pieces which proudly hangs in our dining room. As you can see they are in the vein of the Sailor Jerry tattoo. I missed his last sell-out show so I'm hot footing it down to this one. It's only on for 2 weeks so check it out. 

RED CRED

 I've decided I'm going to try for a completely red wardrobe for my honeymoon. I have about 10 months to create it, find the right red textiles and sew them up, source the perfect red accessories, polish all of my red shoes, gather my favorite red lipsticks and stock pile co-ordinating knickers, tights and socks. 

 Last night I wore a Metal Couture gigantic crucifix, rouge Edgeley Elvira dress, and on my tootsies my divine red Terry De Havilland stiletto boots. I had a red Edgeley Clutch bag and a huge red woolen shawl too. Oh and Ruby Woo MAC red lipstick

Last night WLG and I ventured out to see the KILLER Mojo Juju on the last date of her Lady Killer Tour. The band is tight! I love 'em. Stella Angelico and the Switch were one of the support acts. Oh I LOVE Stella. Watching her on stage feels like what it must have felt like seeing an Ike and Tina Turner show.  HOT STUFF

Vote for the Broken Hearts

The incomparable Broken Hearts DJs and their Jazz fm radio show Peppermint Candy have been nominated for the Sony Rising Star award. I wrote a post about them last year, read HERE. I regularly tune in and I can 100% recommend it. The ladies put a huge amount of work into researching interesting personalities and styles related to swing music and also have fascinating guests.

If you love the Broken Hearts like I do vote for them HERE

New hair

I needed a change, also the Winter collection for Edgeley is pretty ginger friendly so an orange fringe seemed the perfect idea. It's called Clockwork Orange by Fudge. It's actually pretty fluro/yellowish in real life. Just verging on revolting punk territory. I tried out a few different lipsticks that would compliment this new streak, but ended up back with my all time favorite Lady Danger by MAC. They call it a vivid bright coral-red (Matte). YEAY! New look.
