I stumbled upon this really cool fashion blog called Tokyo Fashion Diaries. As you may know, thanks to Gwen Stefani, you already know that Japanese fashion is seriously the coolest ever. My trip to Japan a while back was probably one of the best trips ever fashion-find-wise and also just adventure-wise. I …
Read More »Book of Hairstyles by the legendary Bob Recine
The new book “Bob Recine: Alchemy of Beauty” is available with tons of photos of his epic hairstyles over the years. I think my fave has to be latex snow white wig and the Lady Gaga hair bows ( I believe that was in the window of Barney’s last Christmas when …
Read More »Griffin Leather Shop
No, Griffin Leather is not Peter Griffin’s basement lair of Fifty Shades of Grey paraphernalia (sorry for that imagery)….. It’s a shop on Etsy that sells this leather plague mask and human head skull handbag. Honestly, that mask is all kinds of freaky that makes me want to run and hide under …
Read More »Musical Bug Bag
Scandinavian DesignLab and PARISTEXAS have teamed together to make a series of bags that look like a bug that had a musical instrument shoved up its tiny, little bug ass. Making the impossible, possible thanks to the Danish. Anywho, I really wish I was a fly on the wall (no pun) in …

Check out these awesome illustrations by Taiwanese artist Hsiao Ron Cheng! They have a little Mark Ryden in them, which I love! Anything with bunnies and pink is always good in my book. The baby head has it’s own head sort of like a tumor… pretty rad, I say. I’ve got …

Whenever I think of a Ouija board, I think of that Cartel dude (the old dude with the bell that couldn’t speak) on Breaking Bad and how he communicated with a bell and Ouija Board. Side note: What is a Ouija board doing in a nursing home?? Anywho, Miss Fiendish Apparel designed heels …
Read More »RX Chandeliers
Artist Jean Shin raided the medicine cabinet of every Hollywood actress to make these fanciful chandeliers in the name of art. Seriously, these are prescription bottles that have taken on a second life hanging from a museum ceiling. Not bad, prescription bottles, not bad. They look more like stalagmites, than chandeliers, but …
Read More »Anime Couture by So Takayama
Royal Academy of Fine Arts graduate So Takayama definitely is going to go far among the anime fans around the world. I personally love his anime collection, even though the masks look somewhat freaky. He should’ve just gone this route , instead….. maybe not. Anywho, That last dress looks like it can …
Read More »The Strange World of Rey Pador
Designer Rey Pador, recent graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, knows how to throw together a look that even Gareth Pugh would give a side-eye to. But he totally redeems himself with that furry jump suit in the first photo. It’s like a giant Mr. Marmar minus …

WoweeeWow! This is the first I’ve heard of this brilliant label from Tokyo! Anrealage did a whole collection dedicated to pixels. I think this one translated well compared to other designers who tried the pixelated look. The shoes are the best. The heel is a bunch of cubes- awesome! And I’m always …
