Hey everyone. I've had a busy week in the countryside, going to jumble sales that were brimming with jewelled tops and bohemian lockets. Sometimes I worry that my 'grandad' jumpers go one step too far into a 'rocking chair and cup of tea' landscape, so recently I've built a relationship with waistcoats and cable knit layers that add a 'hilbilly' edge. Sigur Ros, Cocorosie and Jonsi are some of my favourite artists, where they've created their own language and world that is inhabited by pixies and enchanting sounds. I think the music has rubbed off on me and soundtracked my clothing spirit, because I couldn't resist a festival waistcoat that's encrusted with gems. As always I can't wait for a big city venture with my best friend Connie when finances are alive, but for now, the countryside is keeping me fashionably active. Hope your all well; let me know what you've all been up to. And if you fancy picking up some folklore inspired clothes, I'm selling some clothes that have been featured on lookbook at the Ebay link that follows.
this blogpost really insipired me to draw something, both pictures and just the way you described what your favorite artists are like (which I agree with) really thank you for that! I have been in such an un-inspired lump.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to seeing the fairytale sketch Zoe! Dont be daft thinking your in an 'un-inspired lump' though, as your one of the most creative bloggers I know :) I can hardly talk though; pathetic fallacy has taken over on account of the drizzly conditions outside. Was hoping to do little shoot in the woodlands, but thankfully cocorosie's music is taking me far away into dreams instead! Congratulations again on the well deserved recognition on Lookybook! x
ReplyDeleteYou have an incredible eye for detail!

ReplyDeleteHello Darling, I am definitely definitely coming to the next wonky. I was going to come to the last one but my friends couldn't afford it! Do you have facebook by the way? Would love to chat more. Add me if you do - Charlie May xxx
ReplyDeleteHello lovely, what a sublime smorgasbord of textures. That embellished waistcoat pleases me, much.
ReplyDeleteAh I can't say I'm too keen on winter passing, and if it MUST, I'd like to forego spring and fast forward to summer. Please.
great outfit again, nice accessories! love the photos too, that last one has such a beautiful idea behind it.
