Acidic Stars

When it comes to t-shirts, I usually opt for the subtle designs, with misting sheer or material that has an off-white dirty charm. But when it comes to Your Eyes Lie, I can never resist their gritty graphic prints. Their new collection is probably my favourite to date, with volcano's erupting across the whole shape, and galaxies cut up into sci-fi shapes with stars sprinkled along the sleeves. To see more of the collection head to www.youreyeslie.com . And the way to pop a perfect t-shirt comes from the 'skinny love' vibe as Bon Iver's poetry would say. Whereas I usually like minimalism with tops, I crave a sense of texture and dimension to jeans, even when they're static and skin tight. And my recent purchase that I wear religiously are these acid wash jeans from Criminal Damage at www.loveclothing.com . They look like a war of charcoal and gritty white, like a starry eyed night with a dark and sinister design. I love how in certain lights the white or dark sprinkles reign supreme, and they're without doubt the perfect partner for the volcano and electric t-shirt prints. They remind me of the Balmain art, where jeans are bolted, ripped, panelled and given the bruised and bullied treatment to a wonderfully infectious effect.
