…showing some love for all things bacon-related…before you even say that it’s gross, do a google search for bacon/meat related art and you will see the restraint I have used for this post. I could have gone wayyy gnarlier for this. The shoe is bad enough…Also, c’mon! Bacon is good for me! (and we have a candle at the shop RIGHT NOW called country breakfast that smells like bacon & maple! yum. $9.50 come and git it!)

Triple Bacon Sweet and Savory Truffles by trufflemakers
“Delicious applewood smoked bacon has found its way into all three layers of this amazingly savory truffle. At the center is a creamy bittersweet bacon ganache. We coat this with a bacon-infused dark chocolate shell, which we then top with the perfect blend of bacon pieces and raw cane sugar.”

Flower makes awe-worthy clothes, takes great pictures, has impeccable style, and is always polite. Suffice to say, I hate her with a fiery passion and cannot wait to move across the country away from her. I kid, I kid. I love her completely. We took these while she was trying to help me pack for my trip…proof positive that lighting makes cracked out people look much prettier and more romantic!
apart from jewelry, these are the handmade pieces I have been sweating lately…

-DALAT- leather & cotton vest
-MY DEAR THING- 3XD DRESS, bamboo/org. cotton jersey/silk chiffon
-LISETH- grey folder dress, cotton jersey




Don’t judge me. I have been across the US tryin to live some life! Woefully behind on my runway smack-talk/mind garbage/this seasons blah blah blah…The long and short of it is,
-Missoni brought the pain. as usual. gorgeous. drapey. flowy.
-Miu Miu also destroyed. pretty much as per usual.
example:
from fall/winter 09…
to spring summer 2010…
(and can i just say?) I was reading an editorial in an unnamed (ha!) fancy fash mag that actually said “Braids? DON’T EVEN!” I have to disagree, my dears. Long messy scraggly braids and crunchy strands are doing it for me, and I don’t think they are going anywhere soon. This may have something to do with why I am feeling this so much..suckerrrrr for styling.
I also dig Comme Des Garcons drapey plaid tartan overlays, ThreeAsFour’s collab with Yoko Ono (a nod to her Cut Piece) even though it could have been better (don’t kill me!) and don’t even start with me, Hussein Chalayan. Seriously.
Hannnnnnddddsss in the darrrrrkkkk…
no but really? make it in black and I will sell whatever I have to to get this. wear it with the alexander mcqueen skull clutch. gahhhh. ok enough with the unrealistic stuff.

i give up on trying to make these pics line up with my words. trust me when i say I have tried everything.
