Regina Dabdab has to be my new favorite accesory designer. She's from Brazil, and works out of Paris creating amazing art- decoesque wood pieces; more recently she has started working with natural and raw materials. Ah-Mazing. Eu quero!

Being Thrifty & Leaving the Cold Behind

As I prepare for my journey to Oz down unda...I must leave behind the cold weather (yay!) and two amazing jackets found while thrifting in San Francisco. The first is an AMAZING fur that I will post later...the second is this vintage gem that is funky enough for only me to love :)  My mother has proven to be my thrifting lucky charm- I always find the BEST things when she is in my company.

More soon as I expect to turn up some amazing finds at a favorite store of mine in Santa Barbara. 

Until then.......think warm thoughts! 

Munny Munny Munny

I've been meaning to post these Munnys for far too long now. They caught my eye sometime back in December while walking by Lyons Wier Gallery in NYC. All these rad beaded friends were crafted by artist Jan Huling whose work is inspired by travels to Mexico and India (if I remember correctly).

Check out more of her beaded art here. Swoon!

Raarrrrrr....

Lanvin Pre-Fall 2011 & appropriately themed wolf head i spotted while cruising the Rose Bowl flea market.

Rich textures of embroidered tweed and patchwork fur are found in Lanvin's pre-fall looks...and are also plentiful at the flea market. Happy hunting for your second hand furs....

Meet Ninja and Yo-Landi. They have Serious Gangsta Skills coming straight from South Africa. Even if you're not down with their "next level beats," you have to admit they're pretty interesting. My favorite excerpts from their interview with W mag January 2011.

Yo-Landi, who does your hair?

Y: Ninja cuts it.

How did the look come about?

Y: People on the streets where we live used to call me Blondie and Britney, and it used to irritate me. I told Ninja I wanted something more poisonous.

People have questioned if you're for real. They wonder if you're a conceptual art project.

N: I don't even know what that means.

...So you guys actually are like a conceptual art project.

N: We're more like Olympic athletes

Bang. Bang.

Happy New Year! Best Wishes for the year coming...
