NO MORE

sally — Tue, 28 Dec 2010 07:32:06 +0000

So I realised that this blog has become kind of lame and dead space…

As such, I’m distancing myself from those terrible times when I thought Keep Calm and Carry On posters were cool (SHAME) and all those other lameballs things I liked in 2007.

So come and say hello to me over HERE at SALLY ENJOYS.

Hopefully it will be LESS LAME and MORE AWESOME.

Many loving caresses,

Sally

All over this shit

I am all over these Jade Mellor rings found via Style Bubble. Her website is still under construction, but you can also check out her blogspot over here, and her IQONS* page over here.

I think my mum would froth for these white, grey and black striped rings…

But I’ve got my eye out for these blacky greeny goldy faceted rings that remind me of scuffed up crayolas…

I love how her series of button rings reminds me of magical barnacles attaching themselves to your fingers… in a pleasant way, of course.
Her collection of Hewn rings are between 35 and 40 quid, which by my calculations is $60-$70AU? Unfortunately it appears that you can only get them if you’re in Manchester or via emailing, but hopefully an estore or something is on its way…

Tough beans, buddy.

I tell you what, Fred darling, I’d marry you for your money in a minute.

APRICOT

I’d say sorry for the delay but… I think we’ve already established that I lack any sort of consistency in posting.

But in any case, check out this short movie Apricot, directed by Ben Briand that my main homegurrrl Girl Khan found. It’s under ten minutes and is so lovely that it hurts just a little (at least in the flashbacks, the acting’s pretty cringey between the grown-ups)

Check out some of these stills..

… Really?

Man oh man. I feel as if this is some kind of emperor’s new clothes kind of scenario or something… It’s as if I’m the only person that thinks this, yet I can’t be the only person that thinks the Prada SS’10 lucite shoes are pretty rank (less pretty, more rank).

Just, eugh, really? And this is coming from someone who is really all for chandeliers and all things related to chandeliers and shiny things. I can’t be the only person that thinks this. And I’ve been seeing them popping up everywhere lately as some kind of beacon of gloriousness which I totally do not get. Most notably on Susie Bubble who I adore and on Luckiest Pair of Ho’s In The Entire World, Jane and Judy Aldridge.

And the same goes for those Stella McCartney meshy sandals that I just cannot get into.

Can’t we go back to that one time where everyone wore all things I liked and we all danced in a meadow with a unicorn being happy?

Fashion and Intellectual Property

sally — Thu, 27 May 2010 17:05:52 +0000

I just watched this super interesting lecture by Johanna Blakley at USC entitled “Intellectual Property in the Fashion Industry”.
You can find it over here!

She talks about the lack of copyright protection in many creative industries and how that can be not just a bad thing, as you might initially think, but can also really encourage (and even force) greater innovation, as well as how the lack of protection affects trends and how it filters down to us, the average consumer.

preposterous

So someone on my friends feed just added someone with the last name Corbett, and for a short while (I say short, it was long enough) I was genuinely confused as to how someone could have the last name Corbett and not be Ronnie…. genuinely.

WELL THAT’S JUST WRONG, ISN’T IT?

Hee hee. This Julien David jacket reminds me of that bit in Green Wing when Sue White has the long arms…

Hah! Hilarious French dudes at Le Petit Echo Malade have spoofed Garance Doré’s “A Month in Fashion” video:
