yeah
like a fashion designer i really love is gareth pugh but his stuff isn't really wearable. some of the stuff from spring/summer 08 is but stuff like this really isn't workable on a street fashion level:

Fuck, I want a cube head thing.

^^^The ensemble on the right I could imagine you wearing at a club/party, but minus the box/hat thing on the head. As for the one on the left, the "rat/mouse" round the shoulders thing is cute, but the whole outfit would be better without that, me reckon.

that one with the cube head is my favourite piece of his
it definitely could be worn without the cube head, actually but most of the time that kind of stuff just isn't practical
i love anything that's black and sparkles though so i probably would wear it anyway

Oh, talking of things black and sparkly, I take it you got your Keith Richards t-shirt that you ordered a while ago?

Looking at the cube head piece, I was trying to figure out the material that the dress is made from. It's funny, it looks almost rubbery in a certain way.

oh yeah it's somewhere around here

if i had a closer picture i could probably tell what it was made of

On the glam goth look, I recall once seeing Dita von Teese in one of those "dominatrix" dresses (the sort which lace up at the sides) - that was all in black, and what with her figure and beauty, she looked awesome. A real 50's va-va-voom thing going on there.

i love her style. she always looks perfect.
i'm more into the 70s glammy stuff than the 50s, it's less restrictive and a bit wilder, more fun.

Hot Water Music's Forever and Counting on clear vinyl

yeah, exactly, i'm much more avant garde about it
my mum would say my style is funky and i suppose i would have to agree. dita is much more classic.

This is interesting with the glam fashion thing - in the UK, it often means a strictly 70's revival, without updating the style for now, which kinda misses the point of glam, whch was very sexy, futuristic and pandrogynous back in the 70's.

Nefeli - you wear what makes you feel comfortable and happy. I love handmade t-shirts - they're really personal, aren't they?

I'm going to a really good second hand clothes stores on Monday to pick up some great looking shirts for cheap. Might look into getting a pair of trousers too.

people should just wear whatever they feel like and sod what anyone thinks of it

i used to make t shirts when i was probably about 13 with sharpies

I'm thinking of getting some personalised band/film T-shirts done - mainly trash films and bands like Loop.

Cantankers - I tried to rep you for use of the word "sod" - your command of English-ims is most fine! Also (and this is embarrasing), when I first heard of the word "Sharpie" many years ago, I thought that was the name of a knife. D'oh!!!!

Nefeli - have you tried Coke Zero? That stuff tastes pretty meh to me.

Oh yeah, back on topic - the last thing I bought/ordered was two Brian Jonestown Massacre CDs from their own site - support the artist and all that.

I just went out to buy a pack of smokes

my command of british english is probably better than my command of US english. ha.
also lol sharpie as a knife.

coke zero (in america anyway) tastes exactly like regular.
i always drink cherry coke zero. if it tastes the same, why drink all the extra calories?

I've no idea what they put in Coke Zero here (antifreeze?) but it really taste vile. Waste ye not your money on this next time yer in the UK!

Mmm, ciggies - must stock up on some more myself.

Nefeli - what did you buy from the supermarket then?
