Dan Auerbach solo album and The Black Keys ft. Mos Def and Jim Jones

Such a massive, tremendous whack of talent here. I don't say these things lightly...



What’s he got that I ain’t got
Besides stability
Can he drive all night and never stop
Well I guess you’ll have to wait and see

The Madness

Hey Vancouver peeps who think American Apparel is as overpriced as I do! AA is bringing a rummage sale to us on the first weekend in December. Haven't decided whether I'll brave it yet, but if I do it'll be Friday daytime. Will you?

Recent Purchases...

...because you want to know what I'm blowing my money on, right? Well I have to say the longer I do this blog, the pickier I seem to get and I haven't bought much new clothing this fall.

As my birthday's coming up I figured I'd go after a pair of shoes I've been stalking, the Jeffrey Campbell 99 wedge, sold out everywheres. On the way to me Nov 30, woot! In snake of course. I like that these don't look like a complete knockoff of the Acne Atacomas. And I love me some snake.



In the "reality check - I live in Canada therefore it rains a lot" category, I just picked up a pair of Harley Davidson El Paso motorcycle ankle boots. You can get these anywhere right now but the best deals are on Ebay, no one bid against me for these. I think the square toe is wicked!



And then I really caved to temptation and picked up a T by Alexander Wang baggy boaters dress in cobalt on sale at La Garconne which may be the only thing I wear this winter, alternating the previously mentioned footwear with it.

Celapiu

Some of the coolest knitwear I've seen on Etsy for a long time made by celapiu. Look at that texture! And imagine styling this fox the way you would a fur collar? I just like him.

RIP Daul Kim

So, so sad. I think it's kind of bullshit for the media to mine her blog for signs of depression though, but if you put it out there the world will jump on it. Calling your blog "I want to Fork Myself" does not necessarily mean that one is suicidal, c'mon.

Remember, even pretty girls with fantasy lives have problems. We're all in this together, going through the same things. Share the love.

Shoe Lusting

The Jeffrey Campbell Clinic. All kindsa buckled metal wedged wow. And mostly sold out, of course.

Sewing anyone?

Been thinking about taking up sewing again. It's been years, so I'll probably be testing my mother's patience a little to get back up to speed. This Larissa moto jacket pattern from Burda style is awfully tempting. Perhaps in black with gold zippers? Leave it to me to pick an "advanced" project.
