I <3 Shoesssss

I bought some new shoes today photos soon, but i actually wanted the lilac one. Still like it tho.

Went to town and took photos of people in manchester for my dissertation. Why is life such a bitch? Essay in for friday minus two days wasted, i need to get a move on.

Photos by zuza accompanied by short interview by me.

Feeling quite RED

I bought a dress from ebay and yes as you may guess it is RED!! I have a thing for red right now. Whenever i see red clothes i go a bit crazy.
In the mean time essay writing means less time to post but time for youtube.

Party Bug

I've been hiding once again.

In my room for a week. Constantly cleaning, finding any excuses to stop myself from thinking about my dissertation. Two weeks left and i feel like i'm going to fail. FAIL. 2000 words done, 3000 more to go, why is life so cruel. Anyway enough natter for now.

I did a photoshoot today with my friend and housemate Zuza. We raided my wardrobe and basically finished the shoot in 1 hours or so i think, pretty quick me thinks. Can't wait to see the final photos. Once all of it has been touched up by Zuz, i will post it up here.

Also i am quite liking this guy Nicholas Spelliott

Koizumi Meiro -'My voice would reach you'

During my visit in Japan i went to the Mori Art Museum situated on the top floor of a huge building in Roppongi Hills, also note to self, don't go out there ever again at night, possibly worse club experience ever. On the plus side it was free entry and i got 2 free drinks, way to go. Spent all night looking at cute little Japanese girls with make up overdose running away from pervy foreign guys.

Anyway moving back to the art topic. Going up the escalator was rather scary in a breathtaking way. the height and the glass was not a good combination. Anyhow there was numerous exhibitions and installations going on in the gallery. One had work by Chinese artist Ai WEIWEI. His work was rather architectural and had a lot of maths involved with all the angles and precision of his cubes and one piece of work titled "Forever Bicycles", an installation of a large sculpture made from lots of bicycles connecting together. I think the piece was meant to represent the amount of bicycles being used in China.


Another piece i liked was a video by Koizumi Meiro. It was a video installation along with a letter and a desk with framed images of the artist's mother and his thoughts. It was part emotional but at the same time it felt weird as the artist actually hired an actor for the video. the video shows the actor on the phone, it is not sure who, but i presume his mum? But she has already passed away, so basically he was ringing lots of strangers and talking to them about his emotions and his string of thoughts. The more he talks the more emotional he gets, and it's almost like he starts to breakdown emotionally and physically by the end of the video.

Pretty Roses for a pretty fly day.

I present you with Make Believe , this is a jewellery label from Australia, by Amber and Ebony.

Christian Schoeler

I've been meaning to post these up ages ago, obviously not by me but german painter Christian Schoeler. Delicate pieces waiting to be screamed at. Makes me want to paint, but then again a lot of things makes me want to do other things, i need to be less lazy.

Making it Big!

I posted (here) about Ostwald Helgason a while back about the leggings and this morn when i opened my inbox i saw the most amazing pair of leggings ever on Asos, and guess by who?? Yes Ostwald Helgason!!! Not only that Asos has also collaborated with several other established designers creating a hub to showcase their work. Louise Gray, Louise Markey and Maran Pejoski are the ones to watch also!

IRIS VAN HERPEN

I might be quite late with this as im sure many bloggers would have probably posted about this designer.

What caught my eye was the word 'experimental'.




I just love the sculptural shapes. I can't tell if its been knitted, but it looks like a lot of hard work have been put into each design and somehow reminds me a bit of Mark fast?

Holiday Treats

I never got to post about what i bought on holiday as im still waiting to develop my films. But as of now, i borrowed my housemates camera and took a few for my own entertainment.

As above i bought a cool floral tapestry- ish circle bag from a flea market in Tokyo!! Amazing finds i also bought another bag there so cute! Me and my mum are fighting over it. All 100yen thats less than a £1 me thinks!!!!

Also 100 yen shop in Harajuku!! Big mistake i bought lots and lots and ended up spending a few 1000 yen there so many attarctive stuff if only i had more bag space. (Pink Piggy Bank!!)

Forever 21 in Harajuku, Tokyo!!!! They actually have one in Japan i didn't even realise until i saw lots and i mean lots of girls with big yellow forever 21 bags in Shibuya when i was shopping mainly Shibuya 109, where all the young uns shop. There i found my now fav pair of shoes ever for 500 yen like £5(in photo) oh and also bought harlequin tights from the shopping center( 2000 yen tho!! not too happy). Walking out of the shoe shop i had to ask where Forever 21 was and answer: Harajuku, mission for next day. Next mission find tube back to Danatonababa.

Forever 21 was amazing i managed to bag myself a 3d floral headband(my fav piece) a blue bow headband, a big diamante ring, i would have loved to buy the tom binns esque bangle but spent 10000yen there so couldn't afford to spend another 1000yen it was so pretty tho regret not buying it now. I got a sequin jacket tho with hood!!!!
