Ke$ha Style – Statement Earring

We just got some fantastic single earrings at the shop and we thought of Ke$ha. Maybe we don’t love her music but we do love her bold and exaggerated accessorizing, especially the single statement earring brushing her glittery shoulder. So here’s to you Ke$ha, you are bold. Yes you are.

Here I am at the shop trying to look cool with a lot of help from this awesome statement earring designed locally in Chico. Cheers! x

I’m A Good Socialist Project – Sadak

Here’s a look at some conceptual fashion blurring the line between making clothing and making art. Images are from the “I’m a good socialist” project created by Sadak. Damn good stuff.


From the designer: “I’m a good socialist” began with research about Socialism in Former-Yugoslavia during the 1960s, the ideas from which Sasa Kovacevic applied to the creation of his own fictional “micro-nation”, named “Ex-Land”. The constitution of “this brave new” nation is described entirely through its fashion. The fashion of “Ex-Land” is a combination of traditional costume patterns from rural Serbia, optical illusion prints created in the “Western Block” in the 1960s, and socialist symbols and statements used as propaganda after WWII.”
