ENTERtheVOID

featuring the word 'peripatetic'

Blogginglove has not rekindled. Is it unkindled? Is it merely whelmed?
Where did 'whelmed' go?
I am UNDERwhelmed by fashion blogging now.
It holds LITTLE INTEREST in a world filled with So Many things beyond my sartorial desires

READ ON

off the coast of Papua New Guinea there is an island called GOODENOUGH ISLAND and they used to have a really fabulous breed of mangy wild dog that I read about in
the 1945 edition of The Observers Book of Dogs
which also states that the 'Tasmanian Dog' 'is now found only in the mountainous areas' even though I'm pretty sure the Thylacine was basically declared extinct after this one died in the Hobart zoo during the 30's.
(if you like a doggy disco you'll love...) 
Fun WITH Values!
My favourite childhood VHS - TREASURE ATTIC, bought by my mother in the mid 90s off a travelling salesmen is strangely and HYPNOTICALLY RELIGIOUS. The fact that I am not heavily indoctrinated is a MIRACLE FROM GOD. lol jks logic4eva. It featured some puppets, one named 'BunnyBigWords' and a suspicious character named Uncle Jim who would spring forth from a cupboard to share the word of God with a capital G

you should probably use the word MAJUSCULE in favour of 'Capital Letter'
(and the word SAGACITY is just GOOD FOR BUSINESS)



So while we're talking about important things I should obviously mention the biggest issue of the moment
So much for all those people hoping for an Arrested Development movie in the next decade or 3.


That's basically all I have to say. It's all very pointless. Personally I find it all very informative. We learnt about things like Fan Death - the belief widely held in South Korea that a fan left running overnight in your room will kill you, despite that "this phenomenon has never been reported or ever heard of in any other country." We also learnt about Bill Murray's moustache, and that really, is Everything.

PS 
a touch of FASHTAWK here is my fun new gold corset as worn with a fur skirt
It's a two man job to put the corset on, which is why the photo is so average - I'd have to wake up a cohort to put it on to retake the photo yadda yadda I'm lazy/considerate.

Aurora Glitteralis

'It will cost $66 to QUOTE the damage you have done to the camera'
My camera is in a bad way, camera is kaput for the time being - which is my way of justifying really shit and dark photos of what is a truly spectacular top. 

These photos do such a disservice to the garment that I am forced to show this old photo of Ruby wearing it just so you can get a glimmer (lol geddit) of how grand the top truly is. 
- Glitter Ambassadors - doing what we can for sequins everywhere
worn with the best coat (that's right, cashmere and velvet And I've had it since the age of five) 
 Geisha pout not included

Photo included because 1) Sequins are as close as any item of clothing has of embodying the Aurora Borealis and 2) it was taken in ICELAND BABY where I will 3) be oh so fricken soon






SURPRISE
Ol' Slavey Tarnish Fingers-
A lifetime of silver to polish

Liberty Leading The People (that is the best title I will ever come up with)

MERRY CHRZMS!
I am using Kurt because (like every other human) when I was 14 I went through a huge grunge phase and really desired those cat eye glasses - so how exciting is this!

more eXcitment!
2011 PREVIEW 2011 PREVIEW
I was surprised when I realised that I really desire a pair of phat Nike dunks.
Which turned to sadness when I realised the only ones that would fill the void were the Liberty of London Nike collaboration. Duh-Jazz-You-Missed-The-Stampede-Of-2008.
New
Cute
2011
Set your alarms kids
Dear Nike, Dear Liberty of London
Thank You for filling the void of sugary-sweet streetwear in my life
Love Jazz

MERRY FUCKIN CHRISTMAS

Sci-Fi surfing with Tron

I was already intrigued by Disney's Tron: Legacy after seeing an image of Michael Sheen (fabulous) looking like a demented - but wonderful - David Bowie replicant (with phallic power! yeh! all men need to carry around sticks to assert their masculinity!)
Though as if SpaceSheen wasn't enough, Tron went and collaborated with Opening Ceremony. Laser-cut and neoprene space wonder-wear ensued. The limited palette of black, blue, orange and yellow is oh-so futuristic and looks like slipping into a shiny neon hard drive (which may in fact be the premise of the film, judging by the trailer).

 I love the space-disk (Tron 'Identity disk' possibly - thank you Google) inspired bags that look incredibly impractical with their stiff and thin shape, but also incredibly desirable.



I imagine space surfin' babes wear these neoprene sock-booties to the beach before running off to kick bad-guy butt following a groove at the disco. They look so Comfortable (though I wonder if they get Hot - maybe not so perfect for beach babes) (sisters of summer, girls4eva)


 Intricate laser-cut details.



How enticing I find the Phat-Fat collars on the woolon jackets

Thank you Opening Ceremony for your continued collaborations with odd groups for surprisingly awesome results.
